Come to Phoenix and I will give you THREE Big Macs! The dealership wants $1,100! I knew they were trying to rip me off so I grabbed my vehicle and got the hell out of there! It still runs fine, but the check engine code says it is running to rich. I had that checked at Autozone. I need to find a good, reliable mechanic in the North Scottsdale area!

where is the fuel pump located and how does one get to it? it is computer operated?

Hello, I'm Danny.

Here is the information you requested. You will have to drop the gas tank to gain access to the in-tank fuel pump. Here is a tutorial showing what is involved for replacement:

While driving one day my car shut off with no warning. The tow truck driver suggested it was the fuel pump. I had a mechanic check it out and he suggested the same thing. Please help with any suggestions.

How do you replace a fuel pump?

When driving the truck it runs fine under 50 mph and it seems to run just fine if there is more than 1/2 tank of gas....When the tank is under 1/2 full and you go over about 60 mph the accelerator will just go out and come back all of a sudden. Nothing is wrong if you aren't pressing the gas, but when you are it will sputter every once in a while. i drive 50 highway miles to work each day (one-way) where the speed limit is 70 mph. I am sure people around me don't want me going under 60 mph. My husband just changed the fuel filter, so we think it is a fuel pump problem, but due to budget constraints I am hoping it is something cheaper and easier to fix!! Can anyone tell me what I can check before having to change the fuel pump?

If it doesnt do it over 1/2 tank of gas, it sounds liek the pump or something in the tank, like a bad line on the tank unit (pump module).That year, with 170k it wouldnt surprise me a bit if the pump was needing replacement.The only way to verify is with a manual pressure gauge

The fuel pump was changed just over 2 years ago, should it fail in that amount of time?

What kind of pump was used? If it wasnt an A/C Delco I would say that yes, it could fail that fast.I have installed customers "less expensive" pumps, just to have to redo it due to low pressure/low volume overall poor performance.Like I said before, since thefuel level matters, use apressure gauge to see ifit is varying when lower than 1/2 tank.Could be a leak inside thetank, like the feed hose on the pump module

Thank you for your time and quick reply. I will be looking into the pressure and type of fuel pump.

Should be 55-62 psi.

need help with location and how to on replacing fuel pump on 99 tahoe
Thanks

The fuel pump is in the tank and is part of a module ase the includes the sending unit. Aft er the tank is dropped far enough dis connect the electrical lines and the fuel lines, finsh dropping it and replace the unit. then reinstall the same way it came out. Replace the filter at the same time and use a delco or delphi pump unless you want to do it again.

Below you will find the process from the manual that will give the rest of the detail that you need to get this replaced.

I have a 97 Tahoe with 152,000 miles on it. I purchased it 6 months ago with virtually no problems. Recently, I started having a problem starting it. It would give me a problem once & then fired up fine right after. That has been going on for a couple of weeks. Well, now, it won't start at all. I try to start it & it will just turn over & not start. We had pulled off the air filter the first time it did this & sprayed starting fluid in there & after some coaxing, it fired up. Ran fine for a couple of days & now back to square one. Starting fluid won't work now. Amongst this, I have noticed that the typical "hum" of my fuel pump isn't there when I turn the ignition to on. Instead it just clicks. I believe it is my fuel pump gone bad. But I want to make sure that if there's anything else causing this, that it be taken care of first before the more costly end of it. Thanks so much. I have ruled out the possibility of fuses & fuel pump relay.

It sounds like your early problem may have been relevant to the fuel pump leaking off pressure, resulting in longer crank. You need to check fuel pressure, if there is none, the next check would be power and ground at the fuel pump/sender connector. @ second power at key up, and power on when cranking. If that is good, it is a fuel pump. You sometimes can get them to come back on line bay banging on the fuel tank under the pump. It may run again, but can't be relied upon.
