How to Replace the Injection Pump in a Gas Tank

If your gas tank is full but your engine isn't getting any gas, you may need to substitute the injection pump. However, first make sure the problem isn't a broken gas line, clogged filter or an electrical problem.


Warning: Use extreme caution when operating around gasoline. Work in a well-ventilated area, and keep electrical devices and cigarettes far away. Keep a fire extinguisher handy, and use safety goggles, gloves and authorized gasoline containers


Here's how to replace the injection pump in a vehicle's gas tank for cars with a carburetor engine.

2.Examine the fuel line from the gas tank and replace it if it's cracked or leaky.


3.Release the vehicle's gas tank pressure according to the instructions in the car's program manual.


4.Loosen the clamp connecting the fuel tank hose and the vapor return hose, if there is one,  disconnect the hose(s) from the pump.


5.Plug up the end of the hose you just disconnected with a dowel or bolt.
