 Subject: 3.7 fuel pump
IP: Logged
Message:
ell I got 47,000 mile on my dak and I think the fuel pump is out. Anybody have this problem yet. It's an 04 club cab 4x4 with the v6. I went to the dump the other day and went a little crazy in the mud, maybe that has something to do with it. It didn't work for me this morning intil I banged on my gas tank and my pump amazingly turned on. Then I went about ten miles on the freeway and left me for dead. I already ordered the part, but havn't started working in it yet. If you guys have any tips please let me know.
Thanks in advance
Matt

When my '94 (V6 club, 307,000 miles) fuel pump did that sometimes-working stuff, we had a neighbor help take off the bed. The pump was reeeally easy to change that way and it gave me an excuse to paint the frame! Unfortunately, the fuel gauge no longer responds so I guess we'll remove the bed again and use the new pump's lifetime warranty.
Sure you could lower the tank, but I've used a floor jack to lower fuel tanks on cars before, and I wouldn't choose to do it that way.
Sure my Dak's 10 years older and 6 times the mileage but this may still apply. ;)

Thanks for the advice, maybe I'll do that next time. I already did it on friday. Wasn't too bad except for getting it back up. Lining everything up with the heat shield took a little manuvering.
