Replaced fuel pump without fully removing the tank. Used tie downs to lower the tank enough to gain access to the top. Have to remove rear, driver's side tire. Forgot to note in the video that my exhaust pipe past the muffler is gone, which made it quite a bit easier to see things from the passenger side.
Fuel pump failure diagnosed by process of elimination over about 3 weeks. Truck began failing to start at random times. Later figured out it did not like to start in colder weather. Once it started, however, it ran fine (never stopped while in transit). No pressure on fuel rail was noticed several times.
