QA ààaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAaaaàaaaaa
You are very good at explaining problems. There is no chance of misunderstanding you explanations with clarity. Im just looking for where my filter is to change the sucker, and hope it is not in the tank. Not as easy as the real cars pre injector
Really good...
Dankoo
I thought this was me at first! Hey Stretch! Great video for sure
A very chill out vibe in explaining the symptoms as if very obvious and simple to address. Appreciate this video.
1.25 speed gang
Buddy speaking in slow motion
Thank you sir I forgot all about that lmao
Holy crap, it's like magic. 😂
I put it on 1.75 lol. But when watching car videos I usually speed them up. Glad I'm not the only one.
1.5 is even better
This explains exactly what’s happening to my car after running very low on fuel (running on Vapor, lol) which probably kicked up crud from the bottom of the tank and blocked an already old filter. Thanks!
Thank you. This video was clear, concise, and so helpful. I have a 2012 Chevy Cruze LTZ and my check engine light just came on (P0171 code) and rough idling and start.
My 08 Buick LaCrosse has that code and symptoms too , it doesn’t start on first try sometimes as well
@@SocialShock To my surprise, my car doesn't have a fuel filter. My mechanic diagnosed the issue as a PC system valve issue - th-cam.com/video/mKVsuJYIiCM/w-d-xo.html.
❤❤
90% of drivers don't change fuel filters and PCV valves. There is part of full tune-up. Oil changes air filters cabin air filter, coils/boots, wireset, spark plugs, and fuel injection cleaners
What's a pcv valve
@SwampDonkey225 stabilizes the oil and catalytic converter
@@SwampDonkey225 PCV =Positive Crankcase Ventilation. It is part of the system that recirculates gasses that get past the piston rings and into the crankcase and sends them back through the engine for combustion. It's the oldest form of engine pollution control.
And this is what I just went thru getting a tune-up. I assumed I was getting fuel and air filters, and a PCV Valve but no, they told me that was extra after charging me $800 for a tune-up. Another $80 for an air filter and nothing more. Then after that my car was still not running right. Code P2004 a second time. I found a bad vacuum line myself that was causing my car problems. Check your vacuum lines.
Awesome! It described the exact symptoms that my car presents!
Hope you’re back up & running!
Mine has been parked for yrs!!!
It ran smooth for a while parked! Started driving it, quit running smooth , started sputtering & hesitating! Now won’t crank! Jus engine turns over! I think this video IS SPOT ON!!!! I’m changing the fuel filter when I find that little PUNK! 🤔😤🤦🏽♂️👋🏻
Opening statement of "Hope you guys are all having a good day" on a video regarding car diagnosis isn't the proper approach.. Haha, all jokes aside. Thanks for the video.
It's the perfect approach. Good voice, sounds like a surfer. Simple maintenance saves big bucks.
I like that you explain this slowly for dummies like me. Usually people talk way to fast I can’t even grasp what they’re saying . I appreciate the information!
Hello kitty! And you are not a dummy !
Yeah I defo have this issue with my audi. Time to replace the filter tomorrow, I pretty much have all the things that were included in the video except the last one. I was already suspecting the filter but this video made me 100% sure. Thanks!
Gives us a update please. I need the same thing for my Audi as well.
@@joe83anania Car seems to be fine now. For me it was a simple filter change. 👍( changed all 6 spark plugs a week ago but those results came back empty handed )
Thank you, I figured that was my problem but you confirmed it, Again thanks again!!!!!
Good clear presentation! I going to change my filter here in a bit. It's doing everything you spoke of. Wish me luck!
Did that fix your problem?
@@OxC13 I'll change the little filter underneath the trunk but that wasn't it I'll probably need a fuel pressure test.
@@OxC13 but when it does crank it never quits running or anything and it doesn't sputter or nothing so the problem is getting it to crank but if I turn it off it won't crank now the other day I got it cranked and rev the motor up and revved it alot and turn the key off and it crank three times in a row then I waited 30 minutes and it wouldn't crank. Lol
@@runningman3658 have you found the solution?
@@Diego-gi1fs nope.
Man my impala is having these problema to the T! Now it stalls while driving and shakes like crazy. Thanks man I know it has to be the fuel filter
TY for the video Good Job 🙏
What a great detailed video. Please make more
Thank you! and of course
currently fixing my integra and im pretty sure this is the problem, im subbing bro. thank you
Awesome, thank you!
was that the problem? my integra is doing the same thing
@@shoken8321 fuel filter wasnt my problem, the b20 had blown head gasket, but now my integra has K20 so its good
Why does he always sound like he’s talking with a smirk and doing this 🤷🏻♂️ with his head crooked 😂
I don't know but now after listening to him I'm speaking the same way 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏼♂️
Yeah lool, he slurs his words
Like he’s just been smokin’ de weed. 😂
Why do you keep watching him then?
Thanks for the comprehensive info!
Whoa that was more like guided meditation, or what I imagine ChrisFix sounds like after a few drinks... And I got all the info I needed, thanks!
I recently changed my fuel filter with a full service with my car. The car would have trouble starting from cold starts. took so many turn overs to get it going. Changed the fuel filter again recently to a bosh one and all seams to be fine. hope it was just a bad fuel filter causing the issue
Just changed mine on my 03 Avalon for the first time at 250,000 miles
Super good video, I'm going to have to change the fuel filter
Enjoyed the calm guy and great editing subscribed
learned many things from this video
THANK YOU FOR THE INFO. VERY HELPFUL.
How can I tell whether it is fuel filter VS the fuel pump itself? I’ve heard almost all of this for the pump too
I'm in the same spot...i'm going to try changing the fuel filter first...and then if need be, the fuel pump.
@@tpswave3452 how old is your pump? Ive gone through that hill at this point. Are you doing the work yourself? If you have a shop or mechanic do it they might make you replace the filter a second time with the pump for the pump’s warranty requirements.
@@tpswave3452 there are ways to listen for the pump engaging or engaging incorrectly just have a trusted mechanic that is familiar with your make and model look at it
@@GardenBoat Well, thanks for the info. I plan on doing it myself. 2000 Honda Civic
@tpsWave34 watch videos on how to diagnose bad fuel pump. It cd be something simple. And ou
Another symptom can be poor fuel economy.
You are absolutely correct! I don't understand this though, my simple mind thinks less flow easier on gas🤷♂️
@@pauls3117 if filter is clogged pressure won’t keep up and cause bad injector spray pattern. Perhaps you need to change the filter in your brain too, it sounds a bit clogged.
@@davidgruen7423 Did you have to be rude? Uncalled for.
@@davidgruen7423 man you are a jerk
@@davidgruen7423 my bmw died on a hill, its in the shop now they said dirty fuel filter lol
Great video. Learned a lot. Thanks for posting.
Great explanation
Oh wow, I didn’t realize the filter could cause so many issues. I should have done that a while ago as soon as I started feeling trouble. I did my filter and fuel pump about 3 years ago, probably 50,000 miles. Now I’m broke down on the side of the road waiting for a new fuel pump. Guess I’ll do the filter while I’m at it.
Ok thanks Chrisfix
SIMPLE... TO THE POINT... VISUAL ... FKIN! EXCEL-CENT VID... THANKS!
God bless you sir thank you for the info
Exactly what happened to my 07 F-150. Started throwing a lean code. Went to O'Reilly's and got a fuel filter and fuel line tool. $30 AND no more lean code.
When the old filter came out, the engine side had clear gas in it went dumping it out. The gas tank side had gas at first, then a dark gritty syrup coming out. Half hour job.
I have the same truck and I changed the spark plugs,coils,fuel injectors. And I got the same problem. I’m going to change the fuel filter today. Hopefully that fixes it
@@bikelife4118 In addition I have to add, truck through another.lean code. I put in some injector cleaner in the gas tank then it went away again forever.
I just changed my fuel pump, figured it would fix my issue. It started up fine, pushed down on the gas lightly and it was perfect. I gave it some more gas to see how it reacted and it turned off. Im hoping this is my issue
what was the result?
I've def been hvin the pressing the gas pedal rough symptom for mos with my chevy 2000 silverado thx for confirmation in that! Trying to find the vids on changing it some good vids and i lost 1 trying to refind it! Anywho thank you!
Cheers bro just wondering tho i have all those symptoms plus i see blue white in exhaust fumes any theories ty
Thank u for your step by step easy to understand
My 06 ranger automatic stalls when in 3rd gear at 35mph going up to 40 and when it changer to 4th gear it's smooth. Only in 3rd going to 4th at 35mph
Any videos on how to test/check the fuel filter? Thanks!
just take out your fuel filter & once it's out get a bucket to catch the gas. once you pour it out the gas should be clear & not rusty
Hello from Canada.
Thank you!!!!!
and thank you!!
Definitely subbing very informative and quick video
I have all those issues I changed the fuel filter also did the thermostat and lost oil pressure last night I just changed the oil haven’t started it yet still letting oil settle than mine m checking oil level I know oil pressure loss might not come back but thought I’d try the basics before I play with sensors
Listen to you makes me think of the music video," beacause I got high"...I was gonna fix my outboard today..but then I got high, I was gonna change the gasfilter, but then I got high...dadadatatadadada.... 🙈🥳🥳
Thanks bro I appreciate your information
I appreciate you!
Wow thanks this is very helpful information 👍🏼
This made a lot of sense. My ford foucs mileage is horrible. When i fill up the dash tells me its 400 km til empty but i drove it one day really heavy for deliveries, and its consumed 2 quarters of gas in a single day! Like WTF! i sync a trip A with how mucn till empty and i only got 110 kms.
You need to come to fix my car thank you😂
Thanks alot and dats wat really happen so I change it and the spark plugs and it running a lol better
What you omitted to explain is: do ALL these symptoms happen together or you can only experience ONE of those?
I'm asking because I recently replaced pump, filter and accumulator and I experience ONLY the long start cranking and none of the other symptoms. after that the car runs great
I’m bout to subscribe, thanks for the video!
Thanks for your help
Should I change my fuel filter alongside with the fuel injectors?
Thank you very much...
Oh fine.... You earned my sub and bell. Great little channel you've got here.
Hi heat video can you help me my engine light comes on I have all symptoms u describe its a 2003 cooper n 84 thousand miles full service but why would the light on the smaller circle (!) yellow why wilould that come on? My car starts but u have to turn 2 to 3 times it just started misfiring I do tend to run it quite low on petrol I pumped my tyres up as that wat yellow light says in manueal I might need steering fluid as quite low could this be it? Thanx great clear video
I have a 2018 ford explorer I am having all these symptoms. I keep getting misfire #3
Well good info and actually I have same obd scanner
I think I need to also change my fuel filter after changing my fuel pump and fire plugs my car still jerks. Really not enjoying my car at all
Great video
Could it be the fuel filter if, when I add a fuel treatment and gas, it stops doing it so bad for a few days?
Change that fuel filter after 30 ,000 miles to be sure. If your fuel lines are close to the engines and its hot outside, sometimes the ethonal cooks in the fuel line and thats usually after it has set for 5 or 10 minutes. When you crank it up you really have to push the gas pedal to force out the air and get more fuel in.
I don't know if you'll see this comment but if so I was wondering if this issue could cause my 2010 Chevy HHR LT to throw a P0172 code? It sounds so similar except my code says the fuel is too rich, not too lean.
Thanks Bro 😊
Dude is high asl. But super helpful.
Thanks bro I needed dis help
I’m having trouble wit my car and it’s not showing me no codes at all but when I accelerate it will begin to hesitate to accelerate faster and sometimes I’ll press the gas and it won’t even go anywhere until I let go of the gas and press back on the gas it’ll drive
Very accurate “Danko”
EAF is on the TOP of the game!
You must be his friend
Good day. Can a clogged fuel filter be the cause of excessive idling ?
Its possible. Do you have the engine light on? I would start there! If not, here is a video with the most common causes of a rough idle: th-cam.com/video/10H-GBPCU2g/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=EasyAutoFix
You just said everything my truck has
I have the third & 4th problem shuddery idle & sometimes no power or stuttering at low speed around 0-20mph. Also the fuel gauge always changes it's reading to more or less.
with a 2004 2.0 toyota avensis. Does this sound like a fuel filter issue?
Thanks
Did you get it fixed mate , was it the Fuel Filter , sounds the same as my issue , thanks Graham
I had all of these issues bar the non starting. I drive a 2010 and I bet the thing has never been replaced.
CAN YOU DO, "Symptoms of a bad Radiator Inlet/Outlet Tank," NEXT, PLEASE???!!!
I haven’t changed the damn filter now I know the problem
Very awsum video 👍👊
Mahalo
2013 Chevy traverse all of the above happens after spending 2000$ at the shop and it still happening I been asking around and someone told me it might be the fuel filter or fuel pump kuz it only really happens a lot after pumping gas so ima check tomorrow and give an update
Update still haven’t checked still happening but ima change out this week
Okay but where is there a video for the definitions or idle, turning, crank,
Can't find scanner that works my car. Euro Nissan xtrail t30 diesel. 2003
Same code I have P0171
You won't find a fuel filter on a dodge or jeep. Never buy fuel in a station where you see a tanker truck dropping fuel. Water is heaver than gas and goes to the bottom of tank pick-up tube rest 4" from bottom. Years ago you would see a driver push a long stick down into the tank with water finder PASTE on the stick.
Would it do it in a matter of time?
If its clogged will it spill gas? I took mine off and its spilled alot of gas out
Hey easy can you show me how to change throttle grips the owkeyway
sureeeeeee sureeeeee
How can i scan my car thats 37 years old? I tied the paper clip thing and it only showed 12
If we’re here watching your TH-cam video .. what makes you think we’re having a old day ..
2001 odyssey fuel filter replacement
Can you do a video of backfires at idle
Could it cause to crank and not start ?
I feel lazy now, due to the sound of your voice..
😂😂😂😂
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
1.25x speed fixes it. 😂
Awesome
In my car while fuel filling ..fuel comes out and also when open the fuel tank cap...gas comes out..what to do
Your evap might need replacement or your fuel line might not work since it's spitting it out
I think I am having desame issues with my car. Unfortunately my fuel filter is inside my fuel pump in a Toyota camry 2009.
Will this make a fuel pump fuse blow ?
Gheeesh. His voice gives me the kreeps 😬
My car loses acceleration at high speeds and then proceeds to jerk intermittently. Could it be the fuel filter? Also, my check engine light isn't on
Yes
Hey did u find anything about this?
And it has all of your symptoms described
What a sssslllllooooowwwwww voice. Great video man.
