How To Install Fuel Pump On 97 Grand Prix GTP (NC_GTP)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 окт 2024
- This week I'm installing a new fuel pump assembly in my 97 grand prix GTP.
Tips:
To release line pressure before the job, pull the Fuel pump relay (in the box under the hood) and crank the car untill it won't start.
Make sure of the part number on top of the sender for your car, as there are more than one option GM used through this model.
What is one of the worst, most annoying repairs you have had to do on your car? let me know in the comments.

You forgot to mention that there can be two different codes on the pump itself. That would mean two different pumps and you should have included how to relieve fuel pressure prior to removing the fuel pump and disconnecting the battery otherwise good job
Thanks, good points, i will mention these in the description
Mine had no built up pressure to relieve just a couple drops came out (I was checking it out incase it was bad but it wasn't it's like a year old) they still have the outside sock on them I have a brand new spare one that has a sock.
100% the best feul pump video ever. If was local i would demand to be your apprentice.
Lol. Thanks
I'm surprised you didn't mention the need to replace the Metri-Pack 150 connector. Every new pump (especially Delphi) comes with a new connector and bulletin about why it's critical to replace them.
You helped me with this video. That snap ring fought me at first.
Glad it helped
@@SalemDoyle So when ya gonna come help me put a rack in this thing?😂lol
Lol.. i think i have enough to do with these cars here
@@SalemDoyle You know I'm just bullshittin.😂lol
How to tell if you need a new pump? Thanks
No fuel flow, usually car wont run.
So I need to look at number on pump first to make sure, before I purchase fuel pump? 97 gtp
just make sure you get the supercharged pump. The number will help make sure you do
How did you remove the middle line?? For the life of me I can't get it off. Squeezing top and bottom and not doing anything!?
Got it. Use pick and small screw drivers to spread the "ears". PITA!
Hi
I have a 2001 Pontiac grand prix with 117000 miles its running fine, given the age, do you think i should buy a new fuel pump and have it ready as preventative maintenance, or should I wait until it fails.
I would wait, sometimes they last a really long time
What brand of fuel pump did you use?
Grasias sits for you help ir was very helpful 👍
Does this method work for a 02 N/A GT?
No. 7th gens have to drop the tank
Damn that gasket is hard to get in
Yeah. Lubing it helps
Just curious but would the fuel gauge not work if the fuel pump isn’t sealed?
Glad I watched. Lube on the O ring is a great idea. Worked for me. Just one suggestion for the future. Not all of us have high-speed internet yet so the HD videos tend to buffer quite a bit. Just food for thought. Great Job. Great explanations.
+David Ray thanks, glad it helped. You should be able to lower the quality by clicking the little gear icon at the bottom, that should help the buffering
I am honest to say i cannot give a legit comment, as um well i love cars on the outside, on the inside but under the hood is a mystery i rather leave to other folks. I did watch, i did enjoy what i understood.
So if my fuel gauge shows how much has I have during the "On" position..and then the needle goes to full while I'm driving, is it time for a new fuel pump?
+Andrew Oliver maybe, but that could also be a problem with the gauge or wiring.
Is there a difference on the rings for a GT and GTP for 97-03. I think my lock ring is different like the old style. Still have to look. In process of changing pump myself
They change from year to year some.
My 2002 GTP has the ring with notches that you have to turn. Is there a trick to getting it back on???
I can only get mine to turn about half way.
I tried hitting it with a hammer and screw driver. I wonder if it has to be on a certain way. The fuel pump is down in the notch like its supposed to.
Recheck that it started straight and that the seal in in there correctly. They can be tight sometimes
@@SalemDoyle Ok thanks
Hi I've been having issue's with my 02 GTP supercharged not wanting to stay running. It first started off I've changed the mass airflow sensor and about to replace the tee vacuum assembly. So far I can't come up with any changes besides running more rough and occasionally blowing black smoke. I know the black smoke is from dirty deposit from the engine but when it dies it gives no warning. When it first started dying it was always on a small downward incline so i figured it may have something to do with the fuel pump. Any idea's?
First, any check engine light?
@@SalemDoyle it wasn't throwing any codes until i changed the mass airflow sensor now it is po171 and po101
You may have gotten a deffective maf. Or an incorrect one. I would double check that, i have seen it happen before. After that, maybe look for vaccuum leaks
@@SalemDoyle that's what I was thinking too. I read somewhere you have to reprogram it? Didn't know if it was correct because of the year model and can't find anything on doing so.
@@rachelcrowe4169 no, you have to tune for a maf if you change types, but a stock replacement should work without it.
Love your video's btw they have really helped!
Thank you, i appreciate that
@@SalemDoyle no problem! I found out the problem it's my battery cables that run to the starter. Dmall fix after spending over 200 on other parts haha but thank you for all the info on it
Awesome. At least it is fixed
@@SalemDoyle all I care about
Hi me again lol my gtp is still doing same thing. Wanting ro crank up beautiful then 9 minutes later dying then wont crank for sometimes overnight. My fuel pumps working changed mass airflow sensor put new terminals on ect. I have heard of the fuel pump resistor but my car only shows one and a spot where another one used to be in the fuse box. I can't seem to locate the actual fuel resistor though only
the fuses. Any idea's?
Welcome back. Are you sure the pump is whats cutting out? Sounds to me like maybe a crank sensor.
@@SalemDoyle I'm more or less going off of forums. It had mentioned that the fuel pump resistor was near the washer fluids but when i go to check i see the fuel relays. There's supposed to be 2 of them but I'm only seeing one and another spot where it goes next to it. But It'll crank up at first just like normal then 5 to 9 minutes later it'll die but all lights and power are still on. The fuel pump turns on but it says online the same issues and how the resistor will allow it to use the little bit of gas in the lines then after heating up it'll stop the pressure? It's not throwing any codes after i changed the mass airflow sensor though. I've been told the esc be going bad, the resistor is what i had read but also the cps
Definitely a headache and lot of money. But it has a half a tank of gas in it noe. I put 40 in premium qt gas in it a week ago after i thought i fixed the problem.
@@rachelcrowe4169 newer models dont have the resistor
@@SalemDoyle so the 2002 don't? I was considering mine an older model. I found the one's in the fuse box but it shows number as 7866 on the fuse but i can't seem to figure out if it's my fuel pump relay. Wish i could send pic on here but wont let me. But im stumped bc its not throwing any codes or check engine light
Hey man, thanks for the reply. I just got the new pump in. Problem is that the pump can slide from side to side in the housing with the new snap ring and everything installed. Should there be any play at all? It literally can move as I just try to move it around. New oring, new snap ring. Installed, but I can slide it slightly like the oring or snap ring doesn't really lock it down super tight. I know if I add gas and drive it, it will probably leak gas because it doesn't feel completely sealed. I really don't feel like the pump is sealed, but it is installed correctly. Any thoughts? Thanks!
Sounds like it may be the wrong pump.
214K+ mile! Cool!Does your GTP have the fuel pump resistor installed on it? There was a TSB on mine that the stock one would allow too much amps or volts (don't recall) but that killed my fuel pump. Just a heads up on that. (mine was a 98' not sure if that was a thing on the 97's)
+HyperXprojects i will look into that, im not sure.
Would this be the same for a 96 Grand Prix as well ?
96 is the older chassis. They are not exactly the same
So I do have to drop the tank 😪😪
@@jameskaweski3186 i think so, yes
Weirdest, most unexpected repairs done.... hmmm.... well, there was the time I lost my entire muffler in the parking lot of a Piggly Wiggly store! LOL That was pretty unexpected.
+Cindy LaMorte lol.. true
Nice to see someone still devoted to keeping these on the road, I thought I was about the only one at this point. I'm also in NC and have a 98 GTP Daytona 500 Edition and a 99 GT. Keep up the great vids!
+Joshua Campbell thanks i will. The daytonas are nice.
Just checked your channel out and sudscibed. Nice cars!
Salem Doyle Thanks, I need to get to uploading some videos of my Daytona
My 97 Pontiac Gtp supercharger gas meter gone wonk
Could be the sender in the tank
Check and see if the 3800 forums is still out there and I am sure there is a Pontiac forums - your vids might help a lot of them! Very cool how to Vid!
+HyperXprojects thanks man, i appreciate that.
Looks like quite a lot of work, but thank you, in case my old PEugot batmobil breaks I'll be waiting for any tricks here :D
+Żaneta Uba lol. Yes, it is a decent amaount of work. Thanks for checking it out
@@SalemDoyle Hell... you made it look pretty easy.
👍
+Amber & John Homestead Projects thanks for watching!!
Come fix my car next
