How to Make Fuel Pump Access Hatch for Quick Access | 1995 Ford F150

[@chaosmagusgod]

Why trucks dont come this way is just unbelievable to me.. I had this exact same idea, just the other day. Glad to know I'm not the only one who thinks this way. Good job.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

chaosmagusgod You said it man! Tons of trucks and cars need access hatches but they don’t. Thanks man!🤙

I had an escape (small suv) and it came from the factory with an access panel under the back seat, where the tank was. The pump did go bad and it took me 15 min's to change it

[@DayforNightProd]

thank you. had to access my tank...I'm old, out of shape and poor, so this solution was perfect. I'm so very grateful. thank you again

[@ripptydevibes2581]

I had my pump quit in upstate NY January. We got towed to the nearest autozone, bought the couple tools that I didnt have and pulled the bed to erplace the pump in the dark in 1ft of snow during a storm and the delay totalled 3hrs, just in time for us to hit the bar for late dinner before ice fishing the next morning LOL. Now that I have an autozone sending unit, Im weary that SOMEday it could happen again. I already anti siezed the bed bolts since they SUCKED roadside, but am debating this hatch door. My one pointer for icebelt folks, add a seal to the hatch door. $4 door/window seal foam tape. Great video!

[@TheMinuteMasters]

Damn that’s quite the ordeal! You would definitely benefit from having a hatch like this.

[@SteveStoltz]

I've done this on a couple of rusty old s10's, far easier than fighting rusty tank straps and bolts.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

Steve Stoltz I hear ya man! The worse is when the strap rusts right to the tank!

[@TheMinuteMasters]

Don Plaisted Thanks man!🤙 Nice! You will love having this hatch. It just makes maintenance so much easier.

[@OverflowOFGames]

I don't know if anyone has tried this yet but I'd recommend trying an air nibbler to cut the hole in the future! Then you wouldn't have to worry about cutting lines or stray sparks. I haven't done this before though, so if anyone could let me know if this works that would be great

[@TheMinuteMasters]

Very good suggestion! An air bubbler would be perfect.

[@DavidGarcia-uz3ox]

Other than accidentally cutting a fuel line is their any risk of using an angle grinder, Im a bit worried of sparks and gas vapors. This is way better than removing the bed but not as safe.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

David Garcia So I slide a piece of drywall between the tank and the bed to prevent the angle grinder from cutting anything delicate. It also prevented the sparks from touching anything fuel related. You could also use a piece of carpet or layers of cardboard.

[@veteraninmississippi580]

I just wet a piece of cardboard ( ok, it was a pizza box) and slid it up there. Also used an angle grinder with a metal cutoff blade. Just got my repair panel and am about to head out and cut it down to size and bolt it on

[@stevenm.hollis4429]

This is a good idea, however one problem would be moisture getting inside and getting down onto your fuel tank. I don’t think that would be a major issue if you could seal it around the edges a little bit. Also putting a heavy duty cargo liner, or what we did was to put a gorilla liner in the back which is about 3/4 of an inch. It’s custom and it really protects that hatch. Also, so you could definitely throw bricks on top of that and not worry about it. Again my only problem is moisture. I would spray some clearcoat sealer around the edges to keep it from keep it from rusting. We did this modification to a 2003 Chevrolet suburban. Worked out great. But you have the right idea… Cheers

[@TheMinuteMasters]

Very true! For years a had a plastic bed liner that kept water from reaching the hatch. Now I have a tonneau cover which does the same. The hatch is painted and raptor lined now. Nice! Good application!

[@horsepoweraddiction808]

your joking right. moisture on top of the tank is not a issue. there is nothing sealing the top of the tank from the factory.

[@Comm0ut]

That's an old but proven trick (custom bed builders take note and add one before ya need it, especially on work trucks where downtime sux!. I used my 6" angle grinder with cutting disks for most of the hole in my K1500. Another VERY useful trick is to remove your bed bolts when you get a truck then slather them with GOOD anti-seize like Jet Lube copper (not the watery cheap shite at the auto stores). I did my F150 in 2004 and that came in handy this year (2021) when removing the bolts was a breeze. If you work on your own vehicles have a fat can of anti-seize (and some red gel Loctite, which is also anti-seize because it seals out moisture). I've removed exhaust bolts I installed thirty years ago with no problem because I always anti-seize those. Dielectric grease does the same for electrical connections.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

It sure is! That hatch as saved me so much time with other related repairs. These are all great tips! Thanks for sharing man!🤙 I especially like the dielectric grease. These old electrical fittings are hard to get a part sometimes.

[@weaverfever55]

Here's the best advice after you have access to your pump through the hatch... Carry a spare pump... Just like a spare tire... You can find most pumps on eBay for less than 20 bucks... It can save you thousands and tow jobs and dealer bamboozles, carry on men

[@1607rosie]

I like it. That's makes so much more sense. If mine goes that's what I'm doing.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

Thanks man! 🤙 Right! All trucks should have these access hatches!

[@1607rosie]

Absolutely! I've always wondered how why they didn't put an access panel they could if done a nice job from the factory. I've seen my neighbor pull the bed and I've dropped gas tanks before no fun. I'm glad a panevis available to put over the hole.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

@@1607rosie They definitely could. I think it all came down to cost cutting. Yeah dropping the tanks isn’t fun. I dropped the front tank and fixed the float for the fuel pump. The pump died several months later. That’s when I cut the hole in the bed to access the pump. Then that tank leaked and I had to drop it again and replace it. I’ve also replaced the rear tank too.

[@weaverfever55]

All the mighty early 90 model GMC Z71 should be Silverados to I like this this is my fifth pump at$270,000 MI. The 2005 f150 is getting its first pump today at 280,000...

Thanks Walton! 🤙 I appreciate it. I’m with ya. This seems like a no brained to me. I don’t know who the testers/user group’s manufacturers listen too, but yes vehicles would be so much better if end user input was considered in the design phase.

[@waynefilkins8394]

I wonder if you could have just screwed the big one onto the little one, so that it just folded up with the little one

[@waynefilkins8394]

u would have to line it up just right and probably cut some off the side with the hinges, but then you could just lift both up together, or take the old one off and put new one on, but have it bigger than old one, so it still does the overlapping you want. I don't know much about this stuff, so sorry if this is dumb.

Thanks for sharing-thumbs up. However, unless someone uses it as a race truck that constantly requires swapping stuff, you're better off leaving that the way it is, especially if you use the bed alot. There's no reason why your new pump/tank setup shoul'dnt last another 100k miles.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

No problem man!🤙 I agree 100%. I was looking at having to drop the middle tank a second time for the pump. So it was time for the hatch.

[@veteraninmississippi580]

Unless you own a 2001 Silverado. I've put one in my blue '01 and my green '01 just got it's third. I cut the bed and decided to create an oversized access panel.

Couple questions, what model year is this f150? What measurement did you use to find the center for the hole?

[@TheMinuteMasters]

Cornelius Crenshaw This is a 1995 XL 8ft bed with dual fuel tanks. So in order to be directly over the pump (there is some slight variation truck to truck), I measured 10 inches from the inside of the back bed wall. Then I measured 26 inches over from the side of the bed just as it begins to curve up from the bed floor. Otherwise, just take a look under the bed and locate your pump. You can hammer a dent in the underside of the bed over the pump as a locator mark.

[@mrstl3000]

Can i patch it with sheet metal

[@micahpowers1586]

What are the dimensions for the cut, like where do I need to mark out on my truck bed

[@TheMinuteMasters]

I would love to give you some exact dimensions. However, the size of the hole is up to you. Where exactly to cut the hole varies from truck to truck. I’ve come to the understanding that the fuel tanks can all be located at different spots front to back.

[@dannypalmer7701]

Whats the mesurements to pin point the cuts?

[@elonhorsham1010]

Good job. What year F150 did you do it on and what were the measurements to get the hatch in the right place. I have the 2005 fx4 ext cab.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

This is a 1995 F150 regular cab long bed. As for the measurements, I figured mine out by looking under the truck. All you need is the approximate area of the fuel pump. The hatch is typically larger than the top of the fuel pump.

[@jdbiz]

Won't work on extended cab truck.

[@petterprime4199]

What branch did you serve in? Seen you wear a shemahg on a few other videos and your boots look like the old ICBs.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

Technically, I didn’t serve, but I wore a Navy uniform for 15 years with the USNSCC (US Naval Sea Cadet Corp). I adopted wearing a shemagh around 2007 for field opts and other related training. Over the years, I’ve worn at least a half dozen different brands of ICB in both tan and black leather. Those boots I’m wearing in the video are made by Palladium. They were the boots made for the French Foreign Legion after WWII. They aren’t regulation, so I used them for work, outdoors, etc.

[@petterprime4199]

That’s great! Just recently found your channel and have been enjoying the videos, just did my sound deadening in my F150, I have an 01 though.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

@@petterprime4199 Thanks man!🤙 I appreciate it! Nice! Sound deadening is the best because it makes such a huge difference. Hey nothing wrong with an 01. A good amount of my videos can be applied to any year of f150.

[@randolphsellers6892]

How do you find the measurements to get to the actual spot you need to cut the hole

[@TheMinuteMasters]

I mostly found it by “eyeballing” where the pump is located relative to the number of ridges in the bed. So I think I counted over 3 raised ridges and then measure I think 12-14 inches from the back wall of the bed. That gave me my center. Then I measure out from there while trying to avoid the bed supports underneath. These few tanks can shift a bit. So you will definitely have to measure it your truck to get a more accurate location. Now if you buy a bed patch panel like I did for this hatch, you can always cut an “exploratory” hole to see how far off you are from the pump.

[@amoamare]

Curious as to why your fuel pump is failing so much, multiple failure's back to back seems a little odd to me personally.

[@TheMinuteMasters]

Justin Davis I’ve actually only had one failure on the original pump in the front tank. I bought the truck and one of the fuel tanks wasn’t reading for when it should’ve been. The original brass float had filled up with gasoline and sank to the bottom of the tank. I soldered the float closed and reinstalled it. That pump failed six months later. Other than that, I’ve had both tanks rust and leak, a leak from an oversized pump gasket, and a vent gasket leak was from me reusing the original torn gasket until I could get a replacement. The rear pump was replaced by the original owner.

[@jdbiz]

Great video but WONT work on extended cab trucks.

What are the dimensions from side to side and front to back to cut bed for access?

[@TheMinuteMasters]

Dr. Timothy W. Curtis So I went searching through my past commons for the dimensions. If you want to be centered over the fuel pump, I measured 10 inches from the back wall of the bed and 26 inches over from the driver’s side of the bed right where the bed begins to curve up. Once you centered over the pump, you just cut out a 10” Square centered over your measurement. 🤙

I love your ideas and videos. I can say from experience both with my fix or repair dailys' , watching many diy videos, and engineering experience you would make your videos much better if you communicate where on the vehicle you are working. i.e . I could not tell where in the bed of the pickup you were putting the access hole. I thought you were at the back next to license plate. Over the rear tank. Take your time basically and look into ways to make your finished work look better. How would you make it look if you were a Ford engineer. You are awesome, just keep in mind look of final product and your videos COULD go viral. i.e. Lady Gaga would be no one if she hadn't started to wear steaks at her concerts instead of eating them.
