P0440 crank/no start - fuel pump replacement

Post by Lil-j »

Need help, I've had trouble code 440 (evap malfunction) for a few weeks now. Code throws, I clear it and drive. Truck feels fine. Haven't had time to get it in to be looked at plus fixing other things on the truck. Had the code again yesterday, cleared it again, drove home from school stopped for gas and filled up. An hour later I went go somewhere else and the truck cranks but won't start. Can the 440 code have something to with it, like protection for the engine? Or maybe with filling the tank the fuel filter clogged? When it cranks, it sounds like its fuel starved.

Not likely the P0440 code would cause a no start condition, but possible I guess?

P0440 EVAP System No Flow During Purge Possible Causes Setting Conditions:
  • Charcoal canister is loaded with fuel or moisture
    Fuel filler cap is loose, cross-threaded, damaged or wrong part
    Fuel tank, fuel filler neck or fuel sending unit 'O' ring is leaking
    Fuel tank pressure sensor is damaged, disconnected or it failed
    Fuel tank vapor line(s) is clogged, damaged or disconnected
    Purge valve vapor line is clogged, damaged, or disconnected
    Purge or vent solenoid power circuit is open (check the fuse and wiring)
    PCM has failed
The flooded evap canister could cause some problems. Did you "top off the tank" after the nozzle shut Off?

Thank you for replying! Not this time, I usually do though. Any ideas on the crank no start?

Topping off can lead to flooding the evaporative emissions canister. It is best to leave the fuel down in the neck a little. Stop at the first click.
I really don't think the two are related though. P0440 is probably a vent valve problem since you didn't mention a leak in the filler neck.

When was the last fuel filter change? How many miles on the fuel pump?
For the no start condition, start with the basics. Fuel pressure. Depress the schrader valve. Does it squirt? If it does you might need to verify the pressure.
Got spark? Check the cap and rotor. Be careful with that plastic housing! If that looks good...maybe a bad coil?

I have had a fuel pump fail and a coil. Caps and rotors are common too.

Can you hear the fuel pump? Some can run quiet, so have someone turn the key to on, while you listen with the cap off. Mine just went out a month ago, gave no warning, would crank but not start couldn't hear the pump. If that's what it is, don't bother with the bed, just empty the tank as low as you can, then drop it. MUCH easier!

Nope, cant hear the fuel pump at all. And for grins I checked all the fuses and the relay for the fuel pump. Fuses are fine, relay clicked so that leaves me with fuel pump. And dammit, I filled up before getting hom,e the other day, so got a nice full fuel tank.

By the way Wiley, awesome profile pic.

How difficult is it to drop the tank, and is there a drain or do I have to siphon?

Same with mine, just filled up 20 miles up the road. No drain valve, you will need to siphon. I'd recommend you get a good crank style pump, not the cheap autozone $5 bulb style. Used that one once and it wouldn't work again.

Re: P0440 code and now crank/no start

I've got a silly question, I'm guessing the answer is no because nobody has suggested it but....Is there access to it from under the rear seat?
Just trying to figure out as much as I can before tearing stuff apart and spending money I really dont want to spend. Especially if I dont need a pump.
Like I said, I had my son turn the to on and could not hear the fuel pump and I checked the relay in the fuse box under the hood, it clicked so I know thats good.
And what do you guys think of this pump
http://www.autozone.com/autozone/parts/ ... 189_0_1597

Or is there a cheaper one you guys can recomend? I dont have a lot of cash to play with as the pump alone will leave me short on money till the 1st of september

If you don't hear the pump, it is a bad pump. There is no access to the pump under the rear seat and it doesn't line up if you wanted to cut a hole.
Don't waste you money on a cheap pump unless you plan to sell the truck in the next couple weeks. That would be an evil trick to play on the next owner, so let them know.
My cost on the Delphi pump DFP FG0070 is just under $310. That is the pump that I would install. The next downgrade is the NAPA pump NFP P75006M listed at $220
I know that Bosch, Carter are junk. Carter/Airtex are the same pump. I still have one with less than 5k miles and under a year old... DOA. I tore it apart to show the poor design and inferior parts. The pump is much smaller than OEM and the wiring tiny.

Anyway...end of rant.

Drop the tank to make the change. Siphon the fuel using a 3/8" hose. Stop buying groceries for the next two months and sell your first born to buy a good fuel pump :)

The fuel pump in my 05 ZR2 died a few days ago in the same way with no warning. I knew right away it was the fuel pump since I couldn't hear it prime anymore.

There are a couple of things I would suggest trying before you run out an buy a new pump. Make sure there is no rust or corrosion on the fuel pump ground wire which can cause all sorts of intermittent problems. You should also make sure you are getting power at the fuel pump. This will rule out any wiring problems.

If you do need a new pump, DO NOT buy one from Autozone! Their fuel pumps are junk Airtex brand. Regardless of where you get a pump, I highly recommend Delphi or AC/Delco. Anything else is seriously a gamble!

HenryJ, your talking about this pump?

http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/Resul ... 4294963265

The pic of it shows that the pump says carter on it. And the price if your saying this junk.....

Killian, I'll be checking the wiring before doing anything, thanks for the advice. I honestly didnt think of that. Baby steps right?

I have used both Carter and Airtex in the past. If you enjoy changing pumps (I don't) they are for you. Both junk IMOP. Go with delphi or AC or you will regret it. While they too can fail the rate is far less for them. 8)

That one does include the new connector, but you're right...it is junk. If you plan to sell the truck real soon, it might be an option.
Go for the Delphi pump It too has the new connector. The last TSB that I saw related the pump failures to low voltage supplied by the small terminals in the stock connector. The newest fix was to replace the connector with the larger one supplied on the fullzize GM trucks that run the same pump assembly. That is supposed to be the key to no more problems, but still go for the better fuel pump.

Damn!!! Your right, I really dont want to do this again!! I can get a cheaper one from federated today, the delphi one is not available today and is freak'n $359.10.... This sucks!

I go to school during the week and my wife is at home with the kids so I really dont want to leave her at home without a car. AND, $359.10 is a lot of money to me right now! Not factoring tax into the cost of the new pump, that would leave me with $40 for the rest of the month, in short, I'm screwed for right now.

And no, I dont plan on selling my truck any time soon. I'd like to get 2 more years out of it with the 4.3, get another truck for daily driving, then eventually put a cummins in the S-10.

At $325 you are not sitting too bad.

You may find it easier to drop the driveshaft to get the tank down. If you have not done it already, soak and wire brush the threads on those tank strap bolts.
Be careful of the tank filler neck if you have the plastic tank. Make sure not to stress it and crack the tank where it attaches.
Get the truck up in the air on stands or a ramp. Make sure you are ready to support the tank while attaching the lines and wiring.
Find a friend to help. Wish I was closer to give you a hand. :(

Well, so far, eh, could be better. Took the drive shaft down from the rear diff. Got the plastic front cover off the tank (metal tank). Broke the threaded part of the front strap, so got a new set of straps. Oddly enough, I only filled one 5gal gas can with siphoned gas and just that wait reduction is making a huge difference, but I'm very suprised at how little gas came out. The fuel filler neck came off the bed no problem but having a big problem trying to seperate it from the tank. Didnt realize it'd be basically just a rubber radiator like hose. Getting that out from between the frame rail and the lower part of the bed will be a problem.
Still have 2 lines connected to the fuel pump that I cant see how those are gonna come off till I can drop the tank dowwn a bit to get room for my hand in there.
Got the rear strap bolt out but the front strap threaded part is gonna be a bitch to get out to slide the tank to the center to get off the carrier. Which will be problem in itself because of the lines still attatched that I cant get off right now.
Is there by chance a step by step for this? Maybe a pop up book?

Oh, I also learned that while going mudding is really really fun, it really really sucks when you are under the truck and mud from a year ago that you though had cleaned is falling in your face. My buddies were getting pissed about that, I kept saying it was fun!
G'night all, tired and going to bed, will check back in the morning before going back to work on the pump.

The gas line connectors should have a little squeeze tab on them (no tools needed) unless yours is different from mine. If they give you trouble push like you're going trying to make the connection, then squeeze and pull apart. Not sure why you wouldn't have gotten more gas out than that if you just filled the tank, but I'd sure try to get more out as it would make the job easier for you overall.

Last (and only) time I took my tank down I removed the front tank mount bracket as well as dropping the driveshaft. Perhaps not necessary but was certainly easier IMOP.

Tank support bracket had to come, no choice. Came down a lot easier than I thought it would. But the filler neck still is not wanting to come off the tank. Also, noticed on the new pump, the wiring for it doesn't match, but there is an adapter in the bag. What's that all about?

Follow the directions. You have to cut the old connector off and install the new pigtail.

I thought the bigger one with for stacked was the better one to have though. The new pump comes with inline four pigtail? Does it matter or no?

Look at the terminals. The new one has larger/better contacts. You have to use the new pigtail that comes with the pump. There is no "choice".

Ok, problem. Im pretty sure how to get around it but don't want to chance it so..

The new pigtail has four wires, same as the old one but the new one has black, gray, purple and orange with black stripe.
Old one has black, gray, purple and black with white stripe.
Should I just match the orange/black with the black with white stripe? I figure yes but wanna be safe

Follow the instruction sheet that came with the pump. Do not assume the colors will match.

When I did mine , I simply dabbed my finger tip in vasaline and wipe a little on the o-ring. It slid together with a little wiggle and pressure.

Do you have the ring seated on the pump or in the tank for assembly?

Okay now, got the top of the pump seated after an hour or so of fighting with it. It did not want to go in then it just slipped in and I could get the snap ring in a little at a time. I had it sitting in the tank assembly Henry.

Now I've got the tank up under the truck. Fuel lines are hooked up, and both plugs. Filler hose and vent line are where they need to be. Now it's just trying to get the straps up and in. The front one worries me, it looks like its too long.

How many of you guys had to replace tank straps when taking the tank down? What part number did you use for the new straps? My buddy broke the strap bolt on the front strap, and got me a new set of straps. Part number ST08, the back one seems good but the front one is too long, am I doing something wrong? It's way too loose and the threaded bolt is threaded all the way. Just trying to see if any one else had this problem.

Here's a link to LMC Truck part cat page with the strap on it, doesn't show GM part #, but does show pic so you can compare. http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cst/full.aspx?Page=126

Good company to deal with, prices can run higher and selection is limited on the CC parts compared to standard cabs.

Edit - did you hold the original up to the replacement to compare the lengths?

Nope. The ZR5 packages was just appearance. There may be a difference between the steel and plastic tanks though.

I called the local Chevy dealer, they said the front strap was $70, but it's strap riveted to the bracket. And he said no one in the state has it so it would have to be ordered. So screw it, I can drill a few holes and shorten it. I need my truck done today!

Just be sure that whatever you use to re-connect the strap pieces doesn't rub against the tank. I would probably use a rounded head on the tank side, instead of a hex head.

New problem. Where can I find a gas tank for my truck? I searched all the usual online web stores, autozone etc, and I can't find a tank for the 02 crew cab. It's a steel tank and it's getting rusty, and I got a leak at the top where the pump sits. Will tanks out of the 03-04 work in my truck?

The newer plastic tank will require the filler neck and probably the tank straps, but it should work. I think the last person to do this spent about $1000 ?

Holey crap! $1000?! That's way more than I'm willing to spend! Anyone know where to find the stock fuel tank? I'heard that GM stopped making them.

Yup, just called the Chevy dealer and they said the tank has been discontinued. Best he could tell me was to try napa and see if they cross reference anything else that fits. Tried that and nada! Guess I'm screwed. Thanks GM!

Tried E-Bay?? Perhaps this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Fuel-Tank-G ... d4&vxp=mtr Says it fits 01 ZR5 crew cab. If not that one I found numerous others through a little searching of links they provided such as: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0 ... tank&rt=nc Should find one new or used there as your tastes or budget dictates. BTW the first one I listed is $109.80 new with free shipping.

Those E-bay links are not for CC gas tanks. I've noticed a lot of adds on E-bay for S10 parts often include ZR5 and sometimes crew cab in the description, probably because most people assume the CC's are no different than regular S10's which we know is not true. What state did your CC come from that created so much rust damage? Maybe you would be better off with a plastic tank? Just sayin!

Not one of these tanks will work with the crew cabs, they are for the 2 door s10's. The tank looks differant.

I'm in ohio. And if you can find a plastic tank, I'm all ears. I cant find any tanks that are not in a salvage yard in another state. They wont ship and I cant drive down there.

If you can find a tank located near another member, maybe they could pick it up & ship it to you? Most salvage yards and companies who deal with used auto parts will not ship used fuel tanks because they've had gas in them which is a fire hazard. I know UPS and Fed Ex won't touch anything that smells like gas or is known to have gas in it, even if it's empty now, but if you clean the tank up a bit and wrap in in plastic, no one will ever know. If I find anything near me I'll let you know.

Interesting that the tank listed for the 00-01 says 18.5 gal. This might/might not fit my 01 as it has a 20.5 gal tank stock and before anybody tries to argue this as has been done before it is stated in the RPO codes as such as well as the owners manual and is factually correct as I have put 19-20 gal in on fill-up many times. 8)

I did. They cant ship it and I really cant drive down. Plus I asked about the condition of the tank and they said its still in the vehicle so...not sure if I'm wiliing to spend the money to drive down considering I'm about broke at the moment. The fuel pump really kicked my wallets ass!

Wait until you can afford it and I think you will still find a used tank your best option. It is not going to be cheap and may require driving a couple hours to pick it up. That will still be cheaper than a new tank that is no longer available.

And replacing the pump is NOT fun! I recomend not removing the front strap, remove the 4 15mm bolts on the frame rail that hold the whole front tank strap/carrier bracket so that it stays on the tank, then the rear strap. Plus, others have said that they got the tank down and up with out dropping the drive shaft, how they did this, I do not know. I had tp drop it.

Hopefully I'll have a new to me tank next week. Gotta see what condition it's in. And the best part is its free and local. A guy at school has a good friend that's a bit odd, he collects old pickup trucks. And he loves s10's, has 2 crew cabs. Wish me luck fellas.
