I am trying to change the fuel pump on my 1997 chevy tahoe ,need to know how to remove it or a diagram of it.
To remove the fuel pump you mus lower the fuel tank there ae two bolts on the back of the tank spray with wd 40 and use deep well socket 9/16 or 5/8 socket first lossen fuel hose clamp and over fill tube then unscrew the two bolts holding tank to vechicle, use a floor jack and a piece of plywood to lower the tank downone you have the tank on the ground tap the lock ring counter clockwise the tubes and wires come out of the center of the lock ring, tap it with a old wood chisel on two oppiste sides to get it to move once the ring is lose lift the fuel pump amd fuel sending unit out of the tank, replace fuel sock and o-ring on tank lube the o ring before installation and install in reverse proceedure replace main fuel filter, pull tank out and make sure there is no **** in the tank clen if there is. check the pickup tube for cracks. and put it back together and your set to go.
The fuel lines must be disconected from pump before the tank is lowered mutch or the plastic preformed ends will brake there is a tool for release or if the pump is bad snap nippels off pump
