How to replace a fuel pump on a 2003 Buick Regal 3800 engine

[@joequillun7790]

Good for Buick engineers to give us the access panel. Thanks for the video. Very helpful.

. I own a 02 Buick Regal LS, and had the issue of gas gauge going wonky, the car then not starting. checked out he fuel pump and noticed the fuel level sending unit gauge was worn out. Instead of spending money I didnt need to spend, I replaced it and that was it. going on 3 years I believe, and still no problems. Great video by the way.

4:55 Did you put that ring back without pulling plugs out? Because I didn't see you plug them back in. And I was wondering about that part lol. 😂

[@rontruocchio5744]

viewers do yourself a favor and hack off those two 2 inch extensions on the metal ring. the new wider clip will not fit between them when the ring is reinstalled. you can sort of see that where the video ends

I appreciate please share my youtube channel so it can help other people out. THANK YOU

[@joequillun7790]

In your video, you didn't plug in the connectors. Would've been "extremely" helpful, to let us know about the PITA 2 metal bosses, sticking up in the way of the new modified connection. They never make it easy.

[@jordanjones21]

How did you get it to fit

[@joequillun7790]

@@jordanjones21 You have-ta die-grind off the 2 metal bosses sticking up, in the way of the new connector in the kit. Seems "all" replacement pumps require this micky mouse fix.

[@Dubblesteel]

That rubber ring that goes around the fuel has to come out too, in order for the pump the slide out. Thanks for keep your camera rolling and not just showing the new pump appearing back in there.

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

Yes it does it has to be replaced Thank you for watching my channel!!!

Yeah it the same

@@aaronmobilemechanictv7841 I may have replied on your thread but that's because it's not exactly correct .

Tyvm. Helped. ✌😉

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

You welcome

[@davidboyd9195]

lean the back seats down it's easier to get to the pump, also some aftermarket pump seal rings are a taller profile which makes the tank lock ring unable to be put back if the old seal (though not recommended) is still good reuse it on the replacement assembly or you'll never get the lock ring to seat . I had to do this on my 2000 ls regal and had to reuse the pump seal on the new pump which was still good though I got a new OEM AC Delco pump

[@davidboyd9195]

older parts were still good no issues with it , that happen to be reoccurring from the new fuel pump module assembly being installed 👌🤘

I have a 2005 buick lacrosse cxl v6 3800 that needs a new fuel pump. I don't know why they put the fuel pump without access like this 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦

[@sarahwilliams5701]

There is two metal knobs on the fuel pump ring I can’t get over the fuel pump to slide in what do I do

[@LH81633]

Take pliers and bent them off in both directions!! It’s a must! Gm made new hsrness mandatory!!

[@greenbassboosts8872]

Does the Regal use a plastic tank or steel?

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

It metal

[@greenbassboosts8872]

@@aaronmobilemechanictv7841 Damn. My 2000 Malibu was plastic so it'd never rust out. My Regal the filler neck seems to be leaking but I would think the tank is not far behind it then Thanks for the answer

[@EzMDr]

I have a 2001 pontiac grand prix 117000 miles running ok. Do you think its a good idea to buy a fuel pump before it goes bad?

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

If it not bad don't touch it
