Re: 2000 Chevy 3/4 ton stopped and won't start.

Like clinebarger said, the dealer can help narrow it down by the VIN. GM is bad about putting 2 to 3 different pumps in the same truck for different emissions or chassis types. The best bet would be to go ahead and lift the bed, some guys have had luck just getting it high enough to get to the pump on the driver's side and not actually removing the bed. Once you can see the top of the pump assembly, there should be a 3 letter code on top of the pump. This is what the parts stores refer to distinguish between the two different pumps. I beileve the codes will be GFT (which I think yours will be) or GDJ, GFK (these are listed as Calif. emissions), but only way to be sure is to look at the top of the pump. I would also recommend finding a Delphi/AC Delco pump. These are factory pieces that can be purchased at NAPA, Oreilly or the dealer. Many folks go for cheaper as they are so expensive, but remember, the OE pump made it this far.

I hope the price on that thing has dropped. The pump in my 2001 2500 died and the PART was $450.00 from GM.

Good luck, let us know!

I have one of the Airtex from Oreilly, its still going after 4 years, but its noisy and getting noiser. It was pretty noisy when I put it in. Keeping the fuel filter clean also helps to stretch the pumps life. I wish I had money for the Delphi when I bought mine. They were still $400+ then and still over $300 with the employee discount (Oreilly).
