[@kenk3102]

...Buck....this has got to be one of the most thorough and enjoyable fuel pump repair/replacement DIY videos I've ever seen... video and audio quality first class...thanks for posting... 🙂

[@Buckwsr]

Thanks so much for those kind words! Made my day!

An eighty year man can't hardly lift a truck bed

[@liljoeii6091]

My fuel pumps always one right around 100,000 miles thank you for the video

[@paulcreson5758]

Great video, Thank you some much for the step by step instructions. I feel confident that me and my son can do this ourselfs

[@billreith4176]

Thank you much, hopefully I get mine up running tomorrow

[@donfredricks8965]

Currently having the same problem intermittent. Thanks for this video is very helpful and informative.

[@jimcollins9999]

Very good work!

[@k9under]

Awesome video the first fuel pump video i have seen where you pull the bed instead of dropping the tank.

[@Buckwsr]

Thanks so much!

[@mikethedick]

It's much easier to pull the bedding off than dropping the tank.

[@DavidEdwards-d9m]

Very informative. Troubleshooting details are presented clearly. Logic evident throughout. I would like to see some of the testing details. I assume a tap for the fuel pressure; I'm curious about amperage test setup and execution. We have a '92 F-series so some of the techniques apply. Thank you- video detail and repair quality are excellent!

[@momusicfan]

I agree...what is hooked up to what for Amp and pressure test. Excellent video otherwise.

I thought about going to the tavern to get some help for cash, but I spent the money on a chain hoist, load leveler and chains that I could use to take it off and put it back on. I put a landscaping timber across a couple of joists in the garage to hang the gear. Now I can hoist other stuff, too!

[@johnbouldin9033]

Our 2016 Expy is crank no start. I’d spray carb cleaner into the throttle body to verify it’ll run but I’ve heard that’s bad for the turbos. I like the amp meter idea. Thank you ❤

[@Buckwsr]

A brief shot of starting fluid or brake clean into the throttle body is a good way to verify that you have spark. Done sparingly, I don't think it will hurt anything.

[@rogerhinton3814]

Also, if your replacing the hose only 1 hose clamp is necessary to remove the motor ❤

[@marcelocarrica2902]

My 08 expedition start the same fault, question : I have one external electric pump , can I install temporally ,till move uphill (truck is on street)…then replace the tank fuel pump , if yes , where to install it , immediately after filter or close to injectors rail ? Thanks !!!!!😂😂😂

[@eleoncham]

Great stuff, thank you for sharing this

[@keikosman]

I had this problem with my 2002 f150 just more than one year after I bought it. I discovered in 2023 that one of the clamps on the fuel hose under the bed was partially broken. I suspect the poor seal allowed fumes to leak out when the line was under pressure (ambient temps). Cycling the key would send fuel to the engine and eventually start.

[@VIDEOAIRBLADE]

Good job like what you did 👍

[@dondale68]

Take it from a retired Maintenance Supervisor;;; Those 'intermittent problems' ARE a ''P.I.T.A.''!! Make you wanna throw the parts cannon at it! Do your due diligence, test everything,, it'll test your patience! Just gotta remember ''That machine can't out-think you!!''

[@stevejonescriticalthought7633]

This happened to me , I just made an access panel in my truck bed , why , because even new pumps can be faulty

[@HectorGordon-uk9ke]

Very good thank you brother

[@Scott-cw9nb]

Instead of grinding the head away couldn't a nut be tacked in place and backed off that way then cut the nut loose?

[@johnbouldin9033]

Meant to ask-whose pump did you use? Motorcraft or ? I skipped to the end so if you said the brand in the video, my apologies.

[@Buckwsr]

I used the delphi brand pump. See link in description. Verify the right pump for your vehicle, of course.

[@graggcain9496]

Buck since the bolts haven’t been off in 20 years maybe some penetrating oil might have helped some.

[@Buckwsr]

You might have missed it when I mentioned first crawling under the truck to hit those bolts with penetrating oil....I was glad to at least get 5 out of 6 loosened and removed easily.

[@rogerhinton3814]

Why didn't you weld a nut onto the torx head to continue pulling the bolt from the bed?

[@k9under]

He may be like me don't have a welder.

[@chrismack7958]

Where did you connect the amp meter? Can a standard multimeter be used for this? If so, on what setting? I watched both videos. Thanks for making them!

[@Buckwsr]

On my truck, fuse #10 in the under hood power distribution box is for the fuel pump, a 20Amp fuse. You have to remove the fuse, and use your ammeter with prongs inserted on both sides of the fuse socket. I used my harbor freight multimeter on the ammeter setting.

[@SCHULTZEH]

Thank you, very educational... 👍

[@garyluck8502]

Well if it keeps running he just saved himself $1000 !

[@Buckwsr]

IF it keeps running??? You seem to have some doubts, ha ha!

[@philipcbarrera1537]

I would of just dropped the tank. Only got 2 strap holding it. By the time you do did to do this job. I’m already finished replacing the fuel pump. Take me 1.5 hours to replace the pump.

[@Buckwsr]

Your comment fits under the category of “how I can do it better.” Not sure why someone as skilled as you even needed to watch the video….

[@intricateinc8566]

@@Buckwsr Boom great comment my friend, we are all here to get ideas and lil tips and tricks to diagnose and repair. I can do most work on my truck but more information is always welcome

[@jondoes7836]

Repackaged, Open package, Damaged package, Typical of an item from Rock Auto.

[@Buckwsr]

I don't think I bought it from Rock Auto...can't quite remember....

[@Mike-ur8oz]

I have to change mine also. 418000 miles it lasted
