Fuel pump failure by model year
What owners say
Dt*: the contact stated while driving 5 MPH and attempting to depress the accelerator pedal, the vehicle would not accelerate. There seemed to be no gas moving though the fuel line. At times, there was difficulty in starting the vehicle. It was taken to a service dealer who inspected the fuel tank for accessibility. The fuel tank was replaced and a new fuel pump was installed. There was a the federal safety agency recall # 06e041000 regarding the fuel system, gasoline:delivery:hoses, lines/piping, and fittings on the year, make and model of this vehicle however the manufacturer was not contacted to verify if the vehicle was included in the recall.
I have a 93 s10 blazer and the truck shut down while my daughter was driving. The ecmb fuse was blown and would blow out when the ignition switch would be turned on. I finally tracked the problem down to the fuel pump. When I removed the gas tank and pulled out the fuel pump, the wire inside the tank were welded together and the plug on the end of the fuel pump was melted (fused) together. This really concerns me that these internal components can get hot enough to melt they could easily cause the tank to explode. Also the wiring is attached to the sending unit and to replace both of these components it will cost over $600 just for parts. This is a terrible design and a nasty hazard, somebody may be killed.
Three times during june of 2002 vehicle died while driving 65mph on interstate and was extremely difficult to handle,all power gone , had to put in neutral to use brakes,very scary w/ 5 yr. Old son w/me. Mechanic installed new fuel pump and relay.
While driving at any speed for no reason the blazer stalls, will not restart and has to be towed. This has happened on (4) different occasions. The fuel pump has been changed (5) times because there is no pressure in the pump. The vehicle has stopped working again and has to be towed a (5th) time.
Fuel pump failed, resulting in shutdown, replaced 3 times. Tt
Fuel injectors, oxygen & map sensors, and fuel pump has caused vehicle to become inoperative. Please describe details. Tt
