2007 Chevy Suburban Fuel Pump Replacement

[@maddhatter3564]

i watched this to brush up before changing the fuel pump in a former co-workers 07. the vid is well made. whole job by myself took 3 hours (i'm way out of shape) just take 1 step at a time and double check everything. this vid is very accurate

[@TheBucktowncrazy]

Thanks for the video Im about to replace my tank on my 07 Yukon XL. The membrane that is built into every tank started to break apart. About 6yrs ago right after I replaced the fuel pump. I Spent 1hr blowing out the membrane particles from within the fuel tank and fuel lines. Its similar to what's in the charcoal canister you removed hoses from. Thanks again for the video

[@exibar]

this is absolutely the BEST video I have seen on this task so far. Very complete, perfect camera angles, and your explanation is just like a buddy is talking you through the task. the rear crossmember where that rear strap attaches to on my 2013 avalanche has rotted, so I'll be dropping my tank and welding in some angle iron to take care of it, but I'll swap the pump out at the same time too. thank you!

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Man thanks for the great comment and I hope you get the cross member fix up. I yes would most definitely replace the fuel pump while you are there. Good luck 👍🏽

[@arthurlimon9064]

Awesome ! This video really helped step by step , I feel confident enough to get that fuel pump changed out on my own . Big Thank You!!! From the Lone Star State !!!

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Good, I know you can do it.

[@csmithiii9822]

Thanks Michael, I have changed my mind and am going to take on this challenge.

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

It’s not the bad if you don’t have a full tank of gas. You CAN DO IT!

[@Jimjamtheflemflam]

Great video! Just a suggestion from doing this myself today... a couple of ratchet straps go a long way for helping the jack lower and raise the tank.

[@maddhatter3564]

good point

[@gregstone2905]

You sir, are my dream neighbor 😂

[@chrisnorwood1040]

Great job, i did it by myself thanks to you!!!!

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

That is good news. I glad my video could help. Great job 👏 yourself!

[@alejandrojaimes9113]

Thank you to take the time to make the video, I will do my pump next week, very helpful !!

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Good, I how my video helped.

[@LOYALONESTILL]

You did a great job! Not an easy job to do especially by yourself.

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Thanks, it would be a much easier job with help.

[@kevinpfaff2301]

Great video. Transmission jack works great for this too. Especially if there is fuel in it.

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Sounds like you been there before.

[@SaGr2023]

thanks for that it's really not easy to do it with camera 👍🏻

[@shakurapocalypse1301]

Just got my suburban ltz 07.. bro you walked me through everything.. 💪💪💪💪💪 thanks.

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Thanks good my brother. Glad to see you up and running and you save some money not taking it to the shop. Great job🌟

[@jf3232]

great work and the out a lift 👍

[@Vikesgal1848]

Great video! Was gonna buy a cross beam for my jack, but since I’m cheap I will be using a board! Thanks for taking the time.

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Wood is cheaper...

[@maddhatter3564]

i cant stress enough about the hidden hose on top/back. ive done this job once about 3 years ago and i missed that. It worked out ok but i found if you break that 90 you have to replace the whole tank. its easy to miss since you can't see it till the tank starts coming down

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

That is so true!

[@jaqualynnbullard6066]

So I have the evap code and will be changing my canister out after watching your other video but is your fuel pump problems due to the evap canister problems? Do I need to change the fuel pump once I change the evap caniater

[@tenretni5216]

Great video I’ll be laying in my driveway today doing this, much appreciated!

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Good luck 👍🏽

[@macjoe7529]

The blue connector were a pain. It took me two day to figure what was going on. When I watch another video I saw it had red ones and thought it would be easy but it took awhile to get them off. Overall, once we got the tank off I notice that we had the wrong fuel pump and had to go back and get one that fits. The one they gave me was not angle in the right places. Wish I saw this video before I started. Thanks for your input on the blue connector, it was a fun project. Let us ask know what we can use to take off those blue ones. Because the rings fine do much for it to..

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Yes the connectors take up the whole job. You spend more time messing around with them than replacing the fuel pump. I just had to replace mine again because the fuel level was not working and with a full tank of gas by myself. It’s not that bad of a job once you get the connectors loose. I glad you got yours done.

[@versatilisist]

💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 appreciate the video... Gonna be dropping the tank on my Yukon this week

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

It should not be to bad if you don’t have much gas In the tank and a helper.

[@TheBucktowncrazy]

If you remember What size was that board you used to place between the support straps to drop the tank??

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

@@TheBucktowncrazy it was a 2x6 that I used.

[@stevefairweather159]

Great video 👍

[@carter4289]

Great video, very helpful!! Thank you for sharing your experiences.

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Thanks

[@eddiesgsr]

Gm has upgraded the lines on top of the tank for these trucks. It makes it much easier to disconnect incase you do the job again

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

That's good. They need to make a kit that you can change the fuel pump through the floor of the truck. That's the 2nd fuel pump for that truck in 6 years.

[@gregstone2905]

@@michaelyoucanfixthat It’s amazing with all of the computer and electrical equipment my 2010 Yukon Demali XL has running through it that the engineering team thought this was the most effective and efficient method of installation! They really missed the mark on the access point of the Fuel Tank!

[@kggoodheart3552]

Great video it’s helping me to do my pump today 😊👍🏾

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Glad I could help

[@jefferywillis872]

Great work bro

[@pyrofan1178]

So helpful thx ☺️

[@geedogg003]

Really good video!! Very precise!!!👍🏿👍🏿👊🏿

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

Thanks

[@mariitzaa7]

What happens if when you put the pump back in it doesn't go in properly? does the spring return it?

[@michaelyoucanfixthat]

If I’m understanding you right. The spring keep the pump separated so the bottom of the pump where the intake for the fuel is stays on the bottom. It would be hard to put the pump in wrong. If it’s not in there good enough then the top hold down ring will not go on. Just make sure you have the right pump for your truck.

THANK YOU!!
