I have an '01 Silverado 5.3L with 213k miles. I got the bed off with the help of some friends and dropped the new Bosch fuel pump in and noticed the connector is incorrect. I did some research and this new pump is running the old connector. I've scoured the web trying to find the old style to buy. Any help? Thanks.

 

The box didnt come with another connector??

I know alot of complete fuel pumps with new canisters that arent AC Delco use a different connector end that you need to wire in. Cut the factory one and match wires and away you go.

You could try rockauto for the connector/plug in. They seem to sell alot of random stuff that.

 

No, this Bosch unit assumed I had the OE connector, which is square. It seems that the fuel pump in this truck has been replaced once already and had the new style converted. The one on the left is what fits this new Bosch unit that I have installed.

 

I believe you can buy the newer electrical bulkhead from Racetronix.

 

Oh snap. Okay, so I found these two, not sure which to go with

Racetronix - Connector, Fuel Bulkhead 4-Way 280/150

Racetronix - Connector, Fuel Bulkhead 4-Way 280/150

 

Could always get both of them and return the one that does not work....Never hurts to have too much stuff!

 

Are you changing the whole bucket assembly? Also if I am not mistaken Racetronix is shutdown for inventory this week.

 

on the new pump look wires that plug in the bulk head from bottom .match up to the bulk head .the 2 bulk heads in your thread plugs in different from the bottom side.

 

I appreciate all the help guys. I think I'm just going to buy them both and return the other. Sucks that I have to pull the pump again, I didn't even look at the damn thing since it was a "direct replacement". Retarded as hell and yes I'm mad.

 

This is the correct fitment. Thanks everyone.

On the left is the bulkhead from the Bosch BS67305 Fuel Pump on the right the connector from the harness.



Here is the connector from the pump to the bulkhead. As you see they match the bulkhead I ordered.




I hope this helps the next person
