2005 GMC Yukon Fuel Pump Access Hatch/Door Build and Pump Replacement
Просмотров 97 тыс.7 лет назад
I have constructed a video in regards to the well known issue of GM trucks not having a access hatch on top of the fuel pump thus making a fuel pump assembly swap very difficult. I simply did not have the funds to pay a shop to drop my fuel tank to replace it for me and neither would I want someone else working on my vehicles as I have had bad luck with shops. My GM is a 2005 GMC Yukon XL 1500 ...

    I have a 3090 and 7800x3d. Amazing for 1440p or 4k i snagged a used 3090 a few months ago for 450 that had a few messed up fans and fixed it. Im hoping a 3090 can make it at 3440x1440p until 2028.

    Did this on my 1999 Yukon Denali ....instead of cutter (sparks near gas tank ) used a pneumatic nibbler .....went to junk yard and cut access area that gm made for the early 2000 years of Buick LeSabre (under back seat ) out (over sized of course ) then drilled and pop riveted it in and it worked perfectly in the Yukon Denali . A little anti-seize works perfectly to make the hold-down ring easier to remove next time .

    • @ForwardEngineering
      @ForwardEngineering Год назад

      Personally I would get a new ac Delco and swap it out directly. In this specific case I wouldn't try to build your own. If your going custom I would us a walbro 255 but the assembly has other thing like fuel pressure regulator and what not.

  • @harvestblades
    @harvestblades Год назад

    Dealing with this tonight. The access Hatch woukd sure be nice. This is the first pump on a GM product & likely the first &asthma on my yukon xl w 222k on it. Awfully tempting but curious if this is simply because they are prone to burn up pumps as it seems to be more work then nits worth unless it was really clean.

    • @ForwardEngineering
      @ForwardEngineering Год назад

      Eh for me I did it because it gives you quick access incase needed. Other reasons include bad fuel, you can clean from the top, if a pressure oring or something goes bad at the pump connections you can easily open it again. If I was to do it again I would mark the carpet area before removing the seat to possibly make a access door that works by simply folding the seat forward like every Japanese car has stock.

    What an excellent job. Good work! Don't you have the little locking tab that you have to put a nickel against to release the ring? I never seen any ring with out this plastic locking tab that engages when locked. I like the fiberglass idea. Way over the top but very nice. Did you consider keeping the metal cutout and attaching it to your fiberglass frame making it incredibly strong and cover its original area. Happy with my reuse of the cutout rectangle metal sheet and using 2 pieces of plywood secured underneath to secure panel back on. Then some HVAC tape to cover. Wish I had done this years ago. Have over 275K on my sub. See you had over 200k as well. Nice!

    Just an FYI to anyone & everyone that happens across this video. Do not cut the access hole with a cutoff wheel. They make sparks & sparks + gasoline = a very bad day. Use the cutoff wheel to cut a jigsaw blade nice & short for cutting the access panel.

You also made turning that lock-ring a nightmare thru that cut-out. Use a brass punch tool next time so you don't blow yerself up. Perhaps the long wheelbase is different but...

    • @ForwardEngineering
      @ForwardEngineering 4 года назад

      I would assume you could still do it even if the tank is full because even a full tank shouldn't be higher than the ring at the top. But now there's no direct weight and drain the fuel except for maybe taking off the fuel rail connection and then running it into a container I guess

    • @ForwardEngineering
      @ForwardEngineering 4 года назад

      There is also a fuel pressure testing valve on the fuel rail you can probably screw onto and then take some fuel out but it would take you quite a while I would assume because the pump only primes for a few seconds when you turn the ignition on and it won't stay on the whole time

    Very thorough procedure, well done. Hoping to do a similar maneuver on my Jaguar XJ8 where the panel will be cut up behind the rear seat, just under the rear glass. Seems like a much better approach than trying to disconnect fuel lines underneath. I probably won't make a fiberglass panel but will reseal using the weather stripping and probably caulking. I like Ghosthunter's final tip of spraying the tank to say DO NOT DROP TANK!

Tools needed are: screw driver, 15mm Socket, Rachet, hammer, floor jack. GM pumps may be shit but at least they made the job pretty simple. Cutting a big ass hole in your floor giving the cab direct access ti exhaust , Fuel fumes extra road noise and moister. It would have been nice for GM to engineer a proper access but far from needed.
