hey guys, the %#^%$% fuel pump went out the day after i get the ignition issue resolved....yeah its definitely a series 1...j/k....not really........LOL
anyway, I'm going to use the MASTER E3270 motor replacement instead of the entire thing as only the motor has gone bad. Before I immerse myself in this does anyone have anything I should know about before hand. I plan on dropping the hammer tomorrow morning....!!!!!!!!

 

I'm going to do the same w/same pump.

I think if your smart enough (you are) to know where it is, you won't have any trouble.

The stickler sometimes are the electrical connections, but no horror stories.

NO SPARKS

luck,greg

 

LOL....as far as my intelligence goes....i'll let you know tomorrow after i change the pump...and lets pray for now sparks. Man that'd be my luck....

thanks guys and I appreciate the feedback. Updates will come tomorrow and plenty of photos if i have some less than fortunate sparks....

 

check out this thread. I did a pump only swap on my DI awhile back. It was a piece of cake. Plug and play. Here is the link:

Best of luck. Mine is working great and I no longer am having any codes show their ugly heads.

Be sure you use fuel injection hose clamps on the internal connections.
Make sure they are well clear of the open contacts (sparks in a petrol tank are bad).
I'd replace the strainer while you have it out. Delco TS7

He's replacing the pump, not just fixing the sending unit, though the first part for removing it is applicable.

 

Are you talking about actually fixing a component on the fuel pump or just doing the whole thing?

 

I didnt have time to post anything else earlier, but yeah the link was to provide a guide for removal.... i know i had a tricky time disconnecting the lines on my first one. He should take pictures on his repair so we can add it!

 

Here's a link to the original pump replacement instructions on DWeb.
