Dangerously Cheap Parts! I Would NEVER Install A Walmart FUEL PUMP

Yes, several years ago I bought the cheapest fuel pump I could find for my Silverado. Worked great for 13 months. The warranty was for 1 year on the part. I had to buy another pump, but this time I bought AC/ Delco pump, which cost 3 times more, but no more problems 5 years later.

I dont have anything wrong with my car, I just love watching you diagnose patients. Great video lol.

Why can’t they make all cars this easy to access the fuel pump? 😂 great video.

Here's a good fuel pump story that I dealt with... had a bad fuel pump in a 2007 Charger. Replaced the fuel pump and no go. troubleshooting for quite awhile, got voltage and ground everything is good to the pump. I started pulling the new pump found that the fuel pump that failed was a replacement and the replacement pump wiring was reverse so when the replacement was installed they cut the harness and switched the sending wire and the ground wires. Now we got a fuel pump that had the wiring correct so I had to redo the wiring harness back to the original way it was. Crazy but we got 'er figured out and running like a champ.

Great vid. Diagnostic tests were on point. The hard and easy ways. The realistic of going to get tools and coming back.

That Kia Soul I was telling you about had a bad water pump. The dealer that my friend got it from changed the timing belt and water pump for preventative maintenance. The key to maintenance is to use good parts, or you are just installing a time bomb. The one I took out was one year old and so cheap, I couldn't even figure out where it came from and it looked slightly different than all the after market ones. It took an hour just to scrape off the RTV silicon they put on the cheap A** paper gasket they used. I got a OEM (metal infused with rubber) gasket and a OEM pump, and all good now. Lucky it passed the block test 👊 Good vid and lesson 👊

I enjoy your videos because you keep it real.

Alex, thank you. Im a 13 year old really into cars and pretty much how they work, and as soon as i turn 16, i plan to start working as a mechanic and you teaching how the stuff works is super helpful.

Love your video Alex thanks for sharing.

Overall, very enjoyable my friend. Can’t wait to see more!

Great video, but I love that S14 in the beginning of the video. Very awesome JDM ride

I had the same exact experience with a Town and Country. Very insightful. I put off my day to watch the whole thing lol

Beautiful this guys is a pro he knows what he's doing 👏

Alex, you’re Da Man!!! Keep these videos coming!!!

Yup, i never got that lock ring tool either. Even when i worked for GM and had access to it...i never used it. Id smear some wheel bearing grease on the little upward bumps to help them lock in place. Then theres another trick ill have to show on video someday (i might have it on video already, ill have to look for it), but yup, no special lock ring tool. Good job Alex!

Great job bro 👍

Yoooooooooooo, video is legit Alex!!! What do you think about it this type of filming? Productive? Great seeing creators try suggestions!

Hmmmm didn’t we talked about my fuel pump on my truck lmao, i have to say thanks Alex for the troubleshooting. Managed to get a good pump and installed it. Epic experience for the win!!!!

Dallas Texas Alex your the greatest Jorge Garcia I love your videos yeah
