REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Fuel injection systems remain under
pressure, even after the engine has been turned OFF. The fuel system pressure
must be relieved before disconnecting any fuel lines. Failure to do so may
result in fire and/or personal injury.


  1. If equipped with air suspension, the air suspension switch, located on a
    side panel of the trunk compartment, must be turned to the OFF position
    before raising the vehicle.
  2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  3. Relieve fuel system pressure using the recommended procedure.
  4. Raise and safely support the vehicle.
  5. Remove the fuel tank from the vehicle and place on a suitable work bench.
  6. Remove any dirt that has accumulated around the fuel pump retaining flange
    so it will not enter the tank during pump removal and installation.
  7. On 1988-94 models, turn the fuel pump locking ring counterclockwise and
    remove the locking ring.
  8. On 1995-00 models, remove the retaining bolts around the perimeter of the
    fuel pump module.
  9. Remove the fuel pump/sending unit assembly. Remove and discard the seal
    ring.
    To install:

  10. Clean the fuel pump mounting flange, fuel tank mounting surface and seal
    ring groove.
  11. Apply a light coating of grease on a new seal ring to hold it in place
    during assembly and install it in the seal ring groove.
  12. Install the fuel pump/sending unit assembly carefully to ensure the filter
    is not damaged. Make sure the locating keys are in the keyways and the seal ring
    remains in the groove.
  13. Hold the pump assembly in place and install the locking ring finger-tight.
    Make sure all the locking tabs are under the tank lock ring tabs.
  14. Rotate the locking ring clockwise until the ring is against the stops.
  15. Install the fuel tank into the vehicle.
  16. Lower the vehicle.
  17. If equipped with air suspension, turn the air suspension switch to the
    ON
    position.
  18. Add a minimum of 10 gallons of fuel to the tank and check for leaks.
  19. Reconnect the negative battery cable.
  20. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position several times to
    pressurize the fuel system. Check for fuel leaks and correct as necessary.
  21. Start the engine and check for leaks.
  22. Road test the vehicle and check for proper operation.

    I'm sorry but the diagrams did not paste to the fixya.com properly. Maybe try Alldata.com or repairpath.com, but that will cost some money.

HOW MUCH WOULD IT COST TO HAVE A FUEL PUMP INSTALED

George,
No simple diagram for changing the fuel pump. It is located inside the gas tank. The gas tank needs to be removed to change the pump. The pump is part of an assembly which consists of the pump, fuel gauge sender and pick up. You also need to change the fuel filter when you change the pump. It should take a professional mechanic about 3 hours to drain the fuel out of the tank, remove the tank, change the pump and fuel filter. Multiple the mechanic's time by whatever the repair shop charges per hour for labor. There are several different pump assemblies for the vehicle. Price depends on whether it's 2 or 4 doors and 2 or 4 wheel drive. Best guess is about $600 total.
