thanks for the video. Everyone else has showed taking off the bumper and tail lights. I started by leaving my back bolts in but loose and tilting the bed up but after seeing your video, unhooking one light connector and sliding the bed back made it much easier.
Good video. Just a suggestion. You may want to hose the top of the tank off before removing to old pump to keep dirt and junk from falling into the tank when old pump is removed. Make sure the gas cap is screwed in the filler neck to keep water out of the tank. It's a sealed system except for the gas cap opening.
Thank you! Perfect video. New fuel pump is in on my '02 ranger. Definitely could've used a second person moving the bed, but I was able to walk it back resting on 2x4s on frame. Subscribed!
You are welcome James. Glad it helped you out! I've done this repair by myself as well, not as easy, but definitely manageable with some wood. Don't forget to hit the "🔔" next to the Subscribe Button or you won't receive updates to my future uploads.
Excellent video, thank you. My 03 Ranger wouldn't start and the pump obviously wasn't coming on. Got a flat bed ride to my home about 40 miles away, turns out there is a reset button for the pump under the glove box. Hit the reset, turn the ignition to on then off then she starts right up. Everyone check this first, save some $$.
well you just answered that question, my sender on my 2001 B3000 just started acting up 2 weeks ago, it February 29th, too cold to deal with now, will use the trip odometer for now. Just watched another video where guy dropped the tank....yah, bed removal easier...that be the way I do it.
Thank you for this video! I believe my fuel pump died on my 01' XLT. (185k miles original to the truck) and now I have to go through and replace it. Ordered OEM motorcraft since I don't want to have to do this job anytime soon again but the only crappy part I am dreading is the bolts holding the bed... I feel like they are going to be a nightmare and also that it's now winter time here... doing this in 20 degree F' is going to suck even more.... :-(I believe what I ordered is the ENTIRE fuel assembly housing/pump/..etc. It was almost $300. I figure this is easier as I take out the entire old one and put new one in and be done with it.You really made this look easy!
Wow Man you are awesome 👏🏼... great video the Best for sure please make more videos like that .. you way to explain and do things are valued 👍 you got a follower
Thanks for the vid. With regards the six bolts (T-55), do you recall the position of the two longer ones? Were they close to the cabin, in the middle, or towards the tailgate?
I suggest replacing the filler neck too while the bed is off. The filler neck develops cracks and leaks. Buy OEM filler neck. Aftermarket necks just do not last.
I'm personally a novice, pretty much diy type of guy.... I tell you what mr. Nthefastlane you sir are the s!#t!!!😀😀😀. I feel like I could rebuild a whole car off of your knowledge and details of your videos. I tell everybody who needs something fixed, give your video a try b4 seeing a brick & morter mechanic shop. Your videos are very intuitive and direct.Dont hesitate hit subscribe!!
Thank You Rott! That was a very awesome complement that I took whole heartedly. I really try my best to present the best camera angles and explanations so the viewer feels like their there doing the repair.
Need help you video was helpful except for the round donut the holds the pump in. I have a 2003 b3000 it has some other type bracket with metal tab . And the thing won't turn. Any suggestions
Great video - thank you. Do you happen to know where the fuel tank pressure sensor is located? Is it part of the fuel pump you replaced? Or one of the things you disconnected? Or located somewhere else entirely? I appreciate any knowledge you could share.
mastermattk Yes it is, the B4000 is the same exact procedure, and the fuel pump assembly is the same exact part number. B2300,B2500,B3000 and B4000 all use this same pump and same repair procedure.

Helpful video, I was freaking out b4 I saw your video. I have1999- 2000 Mazda B2500 SE VIN:4F4YR12C0YTM14175 2.5L 2492CC |4 GAS SOHC Naturally Aspirated. Can you tell me which Fuel Pump Kit I need? Also what do you think about creating an access panel in the bed?
+Isaac Martinez You can swap just the pump if need be. The only problem is, the fuel pressure regulator is apart of the entire assembly when sold and it's a common part to fail so best to replace it all.
I had to replace the license plate’s light bulb, I saw a spark, now my ranger 01 won’t start any more, I have checked all the fuses and relays and they are all fine. Do you think the fuel pump could be the problem?
Check your fuel pump cut off switch. It's located underneath the glove box compartment on the passenger side. If you're sitting in the passenger seat looking at the glove box, it's underneath it to the right. With the vehicle off,Push the red button in. Then go ahead and try to start your vehicle again.
Great vid but boy would I love to have a word with the engineer who thought it was a good idea to put a plastic piece that you need a flat head to remove.
Does the B2500SE 2.5L have a fuel pressure regulator on the fuel pump Assembly too or can I get the fuel pressure regulator for existing harness because I just bought a fuel pump?
Great video!! I have a 2009 ford ranger sport and just bought a Spectra pump to replace the old pump with about 83,200 miles on it!! I hope mine is intact when they remove it!! I have factory bed cover in my bed....can the tank be dropped like in a car?? Just asking!!
