My system dashboard says I have a fuel gauge system problem and I have no lights on my fuel monitor. Wondering which part on the pump do I replace the wire and the bobber or just the entire thing?
Thank you for the excellent video. I have a question about the rubber sleeve that fits around the pump. Did you have to remove the OEM pump from the assembly to fit the OEM pump back into the rubber sleeve. Thank you
Excellent detailed video and straight to the point. I’ve got an 04 Pilot with the similar long crank issue. And this approach is what I’m going to take also.
@@ktecgarage I have a 2005 honda accord with 230k miles on it that I've been using for Doordash and I've noticed that I'm getting pretty bad fuel efficiency. I've been trying to figure out what I can replace that would cause for fuel efficiency to go bad. Is the fuel pump something that would cause bad fuel efficiency?
hi, 1) Would you have the part number for the fuel filter sock in your video. 2) Did the car run better after you replaced the filter sock? Thank you for posting an excellent video
I'm sorry, but I didn't mention nor do I remember the part number. I got that kit from ebay. The car did run better but eventually blew a head gasket. Thanks for watching!
The filter from Honda is £24, I wont risk putting non oem filter, because if it fails in the future, you might need to kiss goodbye to the injectors. Nice video and thank you.
how long do you think the vehicle needs to sit to take the pressure off cause I just tried the pulling the fuse and cranking the car with the fuel cap off and like the kids say today that's all CAPP I still had high pressure
Kelvin, pull the fuel pump fuse and crank the car up until it stalls(#1 fuse driver side floor) unscrew gas cap also to let vapor pressure off. Did this job today on same car! Make sure you press down on the pump when it hits the bottom of the tank. The top and bottom sections are spring loaded👍
I tried that so what I turned out doing is letting it sit for about a hour with the fuel out and disconnected the connecter form the pump then with the line still connected I started to unscrew the cap to brake the seal (I do not recommend doing this even though it worked for me)@@andyhamilton8940
@@ktecgarage Was chasing a positive fuel trim and had done smoke tests, etc to see if there was an air leak. Ended up rebuilding injector seals, intake manifold o-rings/ throttle body o-rings, replacing intake accordion tube, as well as replacing the fuel filter/ regulator and still have the positive fuel trim(+7%) with no noticeable vacuum leak or exhaust leak. At this point I believe it must be a worn engine as it has 137k on the clock. Posting this just in case anybody else finds a fix or common issue
@Technie87 Too much air. You know, I had an Element that was acting like that, and I got a junkyard throttle body and it fixed it. I replaced the throttle body on a 2000 Accord and it fixed that as well. I don't normally recommend firing the parts cannon, but after all that you described, I'd consider it.
Awesome video thanks bud. How’s the pilot holding up? Anymore long-crank startups after the new filter? Having the similar issues with my 07 Pilot. She nearing 200k
Ah. The Pilot. It's currently getting its transmission rebuilt. I did some other things like Seafoaming the intake and I found a loose spark plug. I also believe it has a leaky injector. It runs fine, but there is some fuel smelling smoke when it first starts. But, it was running fine until the tranny let go. It'll be put up for sale after I get that tranny rebuilt. I would have pulled the tranny and rebuilt it myself, but you really need a lift for that job Thanks for watching and commenting!

I like how cheap you are and I can definitely see myself doing this to save a few bucks. But while you're already in there, why not just put in a new one and go another 200,000 mi and call it done? That's my mentality when I work on my cars
I hear you. If that fuel pump was harder to get to I probably would have switched it out. I once changed a clutch and didn't replace or resurface the flywheel! You think I would have learned my lesson that time.
Still an excellent video to date, detailed enough to follow each step and short enough to not get lost in it. Thanks much
Glad it was helpful!
Happy to subscribe to someone who makes videos to help people
Thank you!
This was very helpful, thanks for posting this walk-through.
Sure! Thanks for taking a moment to comment.
Nicely done. Might reccomend to clean out debris at bottom of “bucket” lower part of pump assemblt where the fuel pick up is.
Thank you!
Good video, with that many miles on that car. I'd Change the fuel pump as well, you've made it that far
The fuel pump I had was Chinese aftermarket so I stuck with the Honda part. If I had the OEM one, I would have swapped it.

If I remember right, I removed the pump to fit that sleeve. That sleeve was for that particular after market filter.
Man u came to my rescue with this video!!

@@ktecgarage sorry I need to ask more questions. did you replace the fuel pump and filter sock or just the filter sock ?
The actual pump was working fine so I just changed the sock.

Thank you so much, made it very simple for me to do on my own....
And thank you for commenting. Always good to hear I helped someone out.
I have a 2015 honda fit i think fuel pump is no good hard to turn on car.. not sure yet
Hint... Always take photos of the beginning work. This way youll have reference

Is the fuel regulator on the fuel assembly or is it under the hood?
About to replace the regulator/ filter on a 2012 Honda CRV
If I am not mistaken, the regulator is under the hood. It is on most of the Hondas of this vintage I have worked on.
@@ktecgarage ended up calling honda and they mentioned it was in the gas tank w/ the pump
Good to know. Thanks for adding that info. On the older ones, they are vacuum actuated.

what is the brand name of the product you used? I am finding the filter online but not with the black sleeve that holds everything in place.
I don't believe it really had a brand name. It was a Chinese one from eBay. I guess I got lucky. Sorry!
I can't find the "sock" on line ... what do you call it, where and how much ?

Anyone here after recent 2024 honda recall for bad fuel pump 😛
I need a seller for this filter, thanks.
I got it on ebay. I couldn't give u the name. Just a cheap Chinese one.

Pump is not bad? It's 18 years old...ITS WORN OUT ...NOT EVEN HONDAS LAST FOREVER...MOTOR IS GOING TO QUIT NEXT WEEK.
