[QUOTE="weendoggy, post: 1588990, member: 23340"] Finally got the GMC engine job done. Ran really good, no leaks, no codes. Gave it back to the owner. Then, he calls me a day later and said it died going to his house. He said transmission was shifting funny (auto) and acted like no fuel at times. Load up my fuel pressure tested and spark tester and headed out. First thing I ask is does it have fuel in the tank, which he said yes, 3/4 tank full. Connect my pressure tester to fuel line, have him start and it barely gets to 20psi and when I rev it, drops less. Told him the pump is dead, or close to it. Towed him to his house and did the "tilt-bed" version of pump replacement. Easiest pump replacement I've done without dropping the tank, plus it had 25gal of fuel I'd have to remove first. Now it has 60psi and runs like a top again. Hope I don't have anymore calls. I quit!! :rolleyes: [ATTACH type="full"]50228[/ATTACH] Engine just after finishing test run. Just had intake cover and hood to install. Ran good, smooth like butta' [ATTACH type="full"]50230[/ATTACH] Two days later this happened. Did the "tilt-bed" version to remove pump. Easiest job on the truck. Luckily his bed was empty. [ATTACH type="full"]50231[/ATTACH] Someone was in here before. One fuel clip was gone (return line) so we had to make a parts run to get a new one. Job was easy peasy! From barely 20psi to 60psi. Took two hours including trip to parts store. [/QUOTE]
