Good news - my new ACD pump arrived in one piece

To get the fuel tank out I disconnected the larger diameter Evap hose running from the tank to the Evap Canister, as you can see it broke without any effort.

Does anyone know where I can get one from and the P/No?



Can seem to find one myself.

 

do you think its this one Oceanbrave https://www.wholesalegmpartsonline.c.../88963669.html
there is also the doorman kit
but if you look t'words the bottom maybe it can lead you to something to replace just that fitting

 

Thank you bronxteck just to confirm, it looks like "Item 11" on the wholsale parts diagram, item 7 connects the vapour canister to the solenoid, if I understand the diagram correctly, however the connector looks the same.

Also would you happen to know how to disconnect the fuel-line? I've been under the truck for the past hour, I don't have a tool, I tried to make one but I just can't get it off.

Any input/advice much appreciated.

 

The fpm-end of the fuel line was rotted and came off with a waggle, which enabled me to remove the tank.

Picture shows how bad the rot it was, note the fuel line is broken-off !



Well beyond due and what a mess

 

it is supposed to come off just like the evap lines. push in a bit and squeeze the sides then pull off. basically it needs those 2 fingers pushed away from the fuel line shoulder ring. you have them clearly pictured above. try lubing it to hopefully wet the o-rings if they are binding inside the collar because of rusting.

 

Ah thank you bronxteck I'll give that a try, just didnt want to break something else.

You were absolutely right the fpm should have been done ages ago!

 

at this rate it looks like factory brake lines and fuel pumps need to be done with the same service interval. the metal look to have about the same lifespan.

 

Yes indeed, it also makes me think what else is on the list..

 

It looks like the locking ring just taps-off, is there some kind of "trick" to getting it off, a locking tab, or is it just brute force?

No doubt there are tools somewhere, do I really need one?

 

check the outer ring notches to see if there is a fold over tab or spring tab. for removal its whatever you have old screwdriver/ chisel/ ratchet extension or socket/ piece of rod.whatever will spin the ring counter clockwise from the outer notches plus a hammer.
just try not to damage the ring retaining tabs on the inner parts of the ring. the one with the l shaped cutouts. but you might have to tap them a bit with some penetrant to break the rust layer but not damage the tab
