I understand the fuel pump in my 1995 Cheverlot Caprice Clasic is in the fuel tank. Most of the time when I start it I hear what I think is the fuel pump run for a few seconds. Is there an opening in the trunk to remove the pump? Which pump do I need, it's a 5.7 liter engine. Guy Paris.

When the key is first turned the fuel pump will kick on (buzz) for a few seconds then kick off unless engine is started up. There is no access panel, the fuel tank must be lowered to access/replace the fuel pump on this vehicle. Autozone has the pump for $80 plus tax, their item number for it is E3270

When a fuel pump goes out it can do so one of two ways either it can quit and stop working or it can fail intermittently causing the engine to stall or not start.
