Location: Placerville, CA.... You know, the only place on Highway 50 between Sacramento and Lake Tahoe the you find signal lights. Above the fog most of the time and I can see the stars of the Milky Way 8 out of 10 nights. Kinda cool.....

That's how I've always done it on my Silverado.

8 bolts total - 4 each side (I think...or maybe 10/5).

Loosen those on the passenger side and remove those on the driver's side using a cordless impact wrench.

Detach filler neck.

Lift bed up - I use a bottle jack with pieces of wood.









Also.....I keep a spare fuel pump on hand just in case. Lots of purchasing options when it's not an emergency and you're just being pro-active.

Good luck, my brother!

In the end, this new OEM pump went bad while sitting in the lot of the shop I stupidly took the truck to. This new OEM pump was replaced with only 15 miles driven on it.
