Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the fuel filler neck on this 2003 Chevy Monte Carlo. It's the same part and similar process on these Monte Carlos from 2000 to 2005. The items you'll need for this include a new fuel filler neck from 1AAuto.com, a 7mm, 8mm, and 10mm socket and ratchet, a flat blade screwdriver, and jack and jack stands.
Open up the fuel door, remove your gas cap, and then remove these three 7mm bolts. We'll fast-forward as Mike does that. Now, raise your vehicle, and under here you want to remove this 10mm bolt and loosen up this hose clamp with either an 8mm socket and ratchet or a flat blade screwdriver. We'll fast-forward through this.
Now, using a flat blade screwdriver, pry the hose free while pulling the fuel filler neck free. While doing this, you want to be careful not to damage the hose. Once you get to a certain point you can just pull the filler neck down and pull it free.
Up top is the old fuel filler neck; below it is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical, and they'll fit exactly the same.
Take your new fuel filler neck, feed it up into place, and then push the hose into place. Slide the hose clamp into place. Make sure this is lined up, and then you want to replace this 10mm bolt, but don't tighten it up all the way. We'll fast-forward as Mike replaces these three 7mm bolts and tightens them up.
At certain points, you made need a flat blade screwdriver to just pry up on the filler neck so that the holes line up for the bolts. Now tighten up the 10mm bolt the rest of the way and then tighten up that hose clamp. Then you're all set.
