yep,i've done three of them. the 98 vortec pump will be close to 200 but its not that difficult. when the tank is out, flush that sucker yourself and put another 180 in your pocket. the math adds up to a new gun!
Only time I ever take my vehicles to dealershi$ is for recall or warranty work. It is ridiculous what they charge.
On a 98 GM, Lift the bed and leave the tank mounted. It is much easier from the top-side!
Hillbilly parts from orielly and napa, put a gm part in it!!
sometimes, it's who you know
There are just some things a person shouldn't get From orielly or napa.
You can buy the Bosch OEM or Delphi OEM pump for that truck from NAPA for less than the Delco branded Bosch or Delphi pump from the dealership but it isnt going to be the first option they offer you. You will have to ask for it.
I recently replaced the pump in my 2001 Silverado. It might have been easy if I had an impact wrench. Without proper tools it is NOT EASY. I had to drop the tank, and that was tough without a floor jack. I've changed the timing belt in my Civic twice and it is a much easier job. If I ever have to do it again I probably won't!
