Awesome thank you! I have a 04 extended cab long bed like you do but I have a 5th wheel and the rails are welded to the frame so I cant lift the bed and I have to drop the tank lol, it sucks so bad but I'm not spending 300 on a pump!
Usually best off replacing the whole pump assembly. That pump looks like it has at least 140k on it and pumps themselves always go out between 140 and 170k. Just gonna have to unbolt the bed and jack it all up and take it all apart again, but good video either way.
I have a 01 and a 05 silverado the 01 has the regulator on the engine the 05 does not. Does anybody know the different names or however I identify the different engines even tho they are both 5.3l
Did you have a problem with pressure bleeding off when you turn the key on but not start? I have a 06 suburban that I have to turn the key several times. Wondering if this regulator you replaced will fix my problem or if it’s the check valve inside the fuel pump.
@@chivabrothers9997 I don’t believe this issue is totally accurate… I just replaced the whole fuel pump on a 06 H2 and it didn’t fix it.. if it was attached to the fuel pump I would have had a new one with the pump.
Most excellent of videos Nicko! BRAVO sir...I have a 2006 Tahoe that will require dropping the tank however, your video is most helpful in understanding the pressure regulator is the same one as what is mounted on the engine - sans the tube that connects to the outlet on the top. And to Wes Sifford - yes, this regulator IS your issue. General Motors has logic built into the starting sequence that flows as - turn key / fuel pump and starter begin simultaneously. However, the logic states that if the fuel pressure has not built up to the sensor setting it will stop the starter from turning. In fact, in this situation you can let go of the key and the starter will continue to turn until timeout due to sensing low pressure. The reason the vehicle starts on generally the second attempt is that there is some pressure built up on the first attempt. I learned this from a Service Bulletin that came with a starter I had purchased from Rock Auto - who accepted its return. Replace the fuel pressure regulator as Nicko has so perfectly demonstrated. If you have to drop your tank there are several videos for that as well and here is a link to one that is pretty explicit - czcams.com/video/3mjaQv-VcZU/video.html. Hope everyone gets their vehicles starting like a champ!
Great video and easy directions. Thank you

Must concur, very helpful. Unfortunately, for me it tells me I have to "add the regulator / pump inline for my LS swap. Thanks.
Haha i was doing research for that too you can just use a corvette regulator
I have a 01 and a 05 silverado the 01 has the regulator on the engine the 05 does not. Does anybody know the different names or however I identify the different engines even tho they are both 5.3l
Thanks
What was the reasoning on replacing your regulator?
Did you have a problem with pressure bleeding off when you turn the key on but not start? I have a 06 suburban that I have to turn the key several times. Wondering if this regulator you replaced will fix my problem or if it’s the check valve inside the fuel pump.
I'm in the same situation right now, did it get fixed with the regulator replacement?
Chiva, did you figure it out?
@@chivabrothers9997 I don’t believe this issue is totally accurate… I just replaced the whole fuel pump on a 06 H2 and it didn’t fix it.. if it was attached to the fuel pump I would have had a new one with the pump.
What about the 2014 Silverado 1500 man ? I can't find it man

Al Floyd thank you very much! Would you happen to have the part # we need for a regulator?
Wes Sifford Standard Motor Products PR217 New Pressure Regulator
I got mine on eBay for just a bit cheaper and sooner than from Rock Auto
Thank you for taking the time to film the process of locating & removing regulator, forget all the Haters & continue the good work
I have 2004 Chevrolet Silverado but mine is under the hood on the fuel rail
Then is a 03 late model
Lucky
its wild they want $70 for that damn thing at autozone
I got one on ebay for $11.
WUD it be better to buy a new feul pump with new everything
I would recommend it since you have to take it out anyway and it would also depend on how many miles yours have.
@@followerofchrist1961 my bro in law did it for me I bought it brand new online GMC expensive asf but all new
Part number for regulator? I can’t find it online.
Same did you find it?
@@05_slowslivy76 no, not for the year and model I have. The 2007 Chevy Suburban had the fuel regulator built into the fuel pump inside the fuel tank.
Whats the part number? Not having the part makes the whole video pointless
Thank you so much for this video!!
