11.A FUEL PUMP WIRING AND INSTALLATION ('01-'03 Escalade/Denali/SS), cont’d
F. Remove the fuel line from the outlet (front) of
the fuel filter. Remove the tube from the plas-
tic retainer holding it so that it can be rotated
freely. Some models may vary from the photo
slightly. Follow the same procedure, taking
care to mount the pump so that the hard line
is not stressed.
G. Making sure the O-ring is seated on the
threaded end of the supplied fitting, install into
the outlet (front) of the fuel filter and tighten.
H. Making sure the O-ring is seated on the tube
end of the fuel line (removed from the filter)
thread the bump tube into the fitting installed
on the outlet of the fuel pump and tighten.
I. Route the free end of the hose connected to
the fuel pump inlet to the fitting previously
installed on the fuel filter outlet. Use the sup-
plied hose clamp to secure the hose on the
barb fitting. Try to make the bends as large as
possible, so as to avoid kinking the hose.
Secure the hose using the wraps and tighten
all of the hose clamps.
J. Install the supplied adel clamps onto the fuel
pump and mark holes to be drilled for #12
sheet metal screws. Drill an 11/64" hole at
each location. Using the supplied black
12-gauge wire with yellow ring terminal con-
nectors, install one end under the sheet metal
screw nearest the electrical terminal side of
the fuel pump. Attach the other end of the
ground wire to the (-) terminal of the fuel
pump. Secure to the ABS module bracket as
shown in Fig. 11.A-e. Tighten both adel
clamps.
K. Attach the previously routed red wire to the
positive terminal of the fuel pump using the
yellow ring terminal connector.
