Replaced the fuel pump last night. It got rid of the god awful fuel pump whine from the old one. However, I still get almost no throttle response at the beginning of my drive. Any thoughts? Maybe a new truck lol.Dealer cleaned throttle body & then tried replacing fuel filter to no avail. They said a new fuel pump may fix the issue; but not guaranteed. They said it is a fuel volume problem; not fuel pressure. They said it would be about $800 -$900 to do the fuel pump. I am thinking about doing it myself via cutting an access panel:

I have an angle grinder; however, some have suggested a mini reciprocating saw. So, I may order this:

Anything other parts I need besides that fuel pump/sender unit?
Any tips?
Thanks.
