2006 Silverado fuel pump specs ?

[BP68]

Hey all,

Anyone out there know the specs on the 2003-2007 classic silverado fuel pump?

I am looking into finding a replacement pump only in case mine goes out on the 06 I have. Hate to buy a complete unit if I can find a suitable pump.

One of the worst ideas ever come up with is the "non servicable" fuel filter.
I have seen too many plugged/dirty filters in my time.

I work at a chevy dealer, and we took apart a fuel pump unit out of one of these trucks. Actually it was a parts van with same style unit. The van would run fine at idle, but when loaded up fuel pressure would drop.

Gm does not service any of the parts serperate, so the unit got replaced.

We took the unit apart to find the fuel pump feeding a can that contained a plain old paper filter element that was so stopped up, it was collasped on itself. The fuel psi regualtor is also attached to this.

I am thinking if I ever go into my tank I will remove that filter and reassemble the can. Then the fuel would go thru a 97 C5 Corvette fuel filter outside the tank on the feed line that I added.

I need to look again, but it looks like the pump could also be removed and replaced seperately if I can find a unit that flows the proper amount.

Thanks for any help/info.
