2006 Chevy Silverado - Fuel Tank Difficult to Fill P0446 - Wheel Speed Sensor Confusion - P1

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ธ.ค. 2024
- My customer just bought this 2006 Chevy Silverado on an auction. It's in mint condition with only 56,000 miles. The fuel tank won't fill correctly. We also go down a rabbit hole testing wheel speed sensors with some faulty test equipment.
Part 2 here: • 2005 Silverado Duramax...
Lunchtime here in the UK, excellent timing as I can watch this now.
Sunny here in Lancashire! Just thought the same as you!
@@dieselc68 Same here in Bristol.
@@srlstephen8465 ... and in Kent! The WWW Brit contingent lunchtime entertainment crew reporting for duty! 🖖
Cold and miserable here in London.
Pissing down in London!
I've said it before but I'll say it again, "Damn I wish you lived in my area". Honest and good mechanics like yourself are hard to come by.
This is why I learned to just do it all myself. I don't have the thousands of $$$$ worth of pico scops and such. But I've made do.
Where is he located?
@@user-rl1kn9rc8g somewhere in Illinois
@@jammie129 lol im in stl do you know his shop?
It's the dry, witty humor that keeps me coming back. The expert mechanical knowledge shared with us viewers is the bonus. But the laughs...the laughs are a real treat.
It's ok to tell a customer something doesn't need fixing. That's called honesty, and is precisely how word of mouth referrals happen.
Usually those charcoal canisters go bad when they overfill the tank all the time trying to get in every drop.
I was gonna say they same, don't ask me how i know.
@@johnditch6357 I won't ask lol
Lol...when handle shuts off.i stop.because i learned watching videos..butt i used to be that guy that rounded up and tip top full...not anymore.
This ^^^
@@j.cooper2246 I did that drove home and in tank fuel pump failed, probably from 'running on empty' in tank pumps want fuel around them to keep lubed and cool. we live and learn if we pay attention and live long enough.
Probably the only mechanic on TH-cam where I can sit for 20+ mins and not skip any part of the video. Great work please keep making such great content!
Wow, thanks!
Me too. I love this Chanel.
I think having the ability to diagnose the problem is 75% of being a good modern day mechanic. I’m outdated and useless. I wish we lived closer Wes. Your a man I would trust with my equipment.
I tell you man every time I watch your channel I learn something new, my own a 2015 GMC Sierra and drive it quite often for my job which is a concrete foreman. I've actually been noticing when I'm at the gas pump the pump will disengage.not saying it's the same problem as what you've got going on but at least it gives me a direction in which to look in, thanks for all your hard work and keep up the great work van your videos are amazing and your knowledge is appreciated.
The same thing is happening to me but I am just unhooking the canister tomorrow
@Camaro 1968 it is his truck
Same. I’m only able to put 5 gallons at a time. Not sure where to start
One of the things that I learn from watching Wes is how to roll with adversity. Things that would make me throw a wrench across the shop, he just stays positive and rolls with it. That is as valuable as any tool tip. Thanks Wes!
It wasn't always this way!

@@WatchWesWork Tamed by Mama Bear? :)
the beauty part of OEM parts is they actually fit, unlike dorman and often they work properly
Yeah, that's pretty much rule one on electronic measuring equipment: If it's showing something odd, make sure the measuring equipment itself is working right first. You can go down an extremely long path hunting for things that aren't there because of faulty equipment. We've all been down that road.
Oh God, yes. Been a car electrician for ~40+ years, and i still occasionally go down that rabbit hole. I have to back up, remind myself of my two basic rules for electricity, figure which one I broke, and then work from there.
Too much tech for me
You should tell that guy how lucky he got with that truck. Tell him to rerustproof to keep it nice. I think that's the first time I have heard admiration from you about someone else's work. You were definitely due a vehicle that wasn't a soup sandwich.
Wes, had the same issue on my 2002 Silverado. Set the code for right front wheel sensor. Also abs would come and go, seemed to work ok when truck was first started in the morning, but abs light would come on after driving truck for 10 minutes. Replaced right front sensor with new Ac Delco sensor, but problem was not solved. Long story short, this a fairly common issue for this generation gm truck. Abs control boards were poorly soldered in the abs control module. Usually the issue rises when the truck is ~ 10 years old. Install a rebuilt board and problem solved. Of course the control module for my truck was buried, but other than that issue was easy to resolve once identified.
Love your channel and have learned a lot from you to improve my shade tree mechanic skills.
Wow, up early Wes!!!
Make an appointment with your doctor quickly! Your iron is going to be low from not inhaling enough rust on this repair!!
True. And the floor was clean at the end of the job. Very weird.
As an Australian I completely relate to working with rusty vehicles. Only yesterday I thought there was rust on the wheel bearing housing on my 20 year old Mitsubishi Pajero. The horror! The humanity! Fortunately a quick dab with a tissue revealed it was just rusty coloured brake dust and once the bolts were cracked loose I could spin them out with my fingers.
Hard life we have down here.
SPC GR&R Statistical process control, Gauge readability and reproducibility. I took that course 20 years ago and as a service technician I still apply it daily. Once again well done! Cant overlook our ability to take measurements and get accurate results.
Just did it this morning on a 2003 Chevy Avalanche with P0446 check engine light on. Took me about an hour cause the clips were a PITA to take off. Woulnd't have been able to do this without your help! Thank you
I can't tell you enough how wonderful it is to watch someone work on something who actually cares about quality work. Especially with not taking shortcuts! I wonder if the people in your area have any idea how lucky they are to have a quality, almost professional mechanic, like yourself!
I remember how nice it was to work on something that isn't coated in 10 years of North Eastern rust.
I usually ended those jobs with a smile.
it takes less than 10 years to build up that rust
Here's me in Australia, astounded at how corroded that underside is for a 2006 car and wondering if any rust preventative treatment could have helped it.
Then you say it's one of the better ones and looks like it's had a treatment!!!! Wow. I'm so glad we don't have snow/salted roads here. My 2008 car is just a bit dirty underneath.
Still can't get over how bad the rust is up there. Even with treatment the rust is 1000x worse than down here. God bless Texas!
It's funny u came up with that charcoal canister issue. I have an 02 tundra v8 keeps saying vent valve and vsv fault. I've replaced both twice but no good. My son keeps saying he thinks canister failed just like the onebin this video. I'll have to do some more diagnosing now that I watched this. SO THANK YOU.
The charcoal canister plugging/filling is generally is cause by over filling or topping off the fuel tank. Especially on a low mile rig like that.
Before changing the charcoal canister you can try to dump a bottle of injector cleaner in the fuel tank and let it sit over night. Next day go fill up the tank. I had a similiar problem with filling up my car. The pump would not give me gas or only if I pressed the handle ever so gently. One bottle of injector cleaner in the tank solved the issue and the problem has yet to come back.
Quick connect fittings, they are far from quick disconnect. Tony, an auto shop teacher 20 years ago taught me that one.
Best $ I ever spent was a new canister on my Tahoe. There is not much more frustration then standing outside when its freezing trying to force gas in.
I had the same thing happen on my 05 avalanche about a year ago. my canister clogged up and i couldn't fill up my truck. It would take forever to put 5 gallons in it. probably worse than the silverado because the avalanches have a much longer and more narrow filler neck. so i did the right thing and cut a hole in my canister and gutted it and flex taped it back together. I can fill it up as fast as NASCAR now.
I'm thinking of doing this on my '08 Impala with 240,000 mi. Tell me, did "gutting" your canister cause any problems? Ty
@@aboomalacani2732, just a few evap codes, but what GM doesn't have evap codes. South Carolina doesn't do vehicle inspections, so almost everybody has a check engine light on.
I've fixed dozens of vehicles with slow gas problems, and P0446. First thing I do is remove the vent valve and remove the lid and dump out the 1/2 cup of fine dirt that's in it. I blow out the lines and the tubes into the vapor canister while wacking it with a screwdriver. I've never replaced a canister except one time when a guy pressurized the tank with air like you did, and exploded the canister! I've repositioned a few vent valves to under the hood where they won't suck as much dust. We all have to drive gravel roads around here and this is a very common problem.
Appreciate your approach to explaining what's wrong, why as well as what you're going to do to fix it. Along with your commentary. It would be an event if you and Eric O got together to jointly do a video. It would be not only instructional but also I believe extremely entertaining.
Thank you SO MUCH!
Perfect timing!
I was "attempting" to fill up my wife's Yukon XL and couldn't get it to take fuel. She said "yeah, it's been doing that".
Repair is on the way, thanks to you!
It seems like business at the new place has really picked up - congratulations on that!
Watching you track down ABS problems almost makes me want to fix my Silverado's ABS issues. Almost.
Yup..i have fixed all mine after 2 years with out.no sure the $500 investment (new pump and abs module rebuilt) are worth it.but living in the north it helps for sure..
Silverado's are plagued with these silly problems one 1 of many. Damn gm and there shit quality suppliers. Only care about there profit and not the longevity in my opinion.
I bought one of those magnetic lights you use, sure are dang handy. I picked up some Li-Ion batteries from Amazon to always have some fresh ones on hand. When they say "2.5Hrs" battery life, they mean it!
LOL. They're great until you drop them and break the hinge.
Man, I would kill to have a 'Wes' in my area. I generally do my own maintenence but there are plenty of things that are outside my skill level and I definitely know it. I would love to have access to such a talented and honest mechanic.
Hey Wes.... name's Del... empressed with your ability to fix anything....know ya got a computer so ya can look things up.... I don't have a shop....been driving a truck for 30 years...came up with 3 brothers all mechanic....worked on a lot of stuff myself....like your videos ....keep on trucking....
The rust jacking up the sensor and loosing the reluctor signal is a classic, there’s a TSB for it. Living in eastern Canada I’ve done hundreds and hundreds when I used to work at the dealer.
Glad to see the word-of-mouth advertising is working for you. Much nicer to be too busy than the opposite.
Good call on the test lead, bad when you can't trust the tester.
Thanks for sharing
After receiving the notification i opened TH-cam as fast as i can.
I bought a 2006 silverado 2500hd in april with 200k on it. It spent it's life in PA. It is cleaner than that underneath, the only rust I was concerned with was the fuel lines from tank to engine. I bought the delco set and replaced them. Then this last weekend I put it on the lift and fluid filmed it. I also had to do a crank relearn on it as it would get misfires and googling found it to be a common problem. Since april it hasn't returned.I paid a little over $8k plus tax because it seemed worth it with a one owner carfax report. I didn't want to spend 30-40 grand or more for a new one in NY.
Awesome that you have part numbers written on the back of your hand!
Found you through DDD. Neil’s channel is one of my favorites. Looking forward to hitting your playlist to possibly build some competence for myself. Thanks
Nice to see your business becoming very deservedly more and more successful. Always better to be overrun with work rather than be sat twiddling your thumbs waiting for work to come in.
Can you maybe open the old cannister i am curious what its like inside.
Wes would find another dead squirrel in it, I bet.
I hope it's not a squirrel!
@@WatchWesWork I remember the early canisters that the service instruction was to pop it open and replace the charcoal.
@@WatchWesWork Make sure you have fire extinguisher ready, and not opening it with power tool, we don’t want future WWW videos get interrupted by the mixture of gas fume and spark
I was about to ask for the same thing
Thank you for doing the p0446 diagnosis I have been having the exact same problem with the exact same code on my 06 and I threw a new vent valve at it which did nothing. I have been too lazy to really dig into diagnosing it so this confirms what I suspected in the first place
The shop is looking pretty clean, even with all that work. Thanks for showing a simple way to diagnose the evap.
That look at a "clean" underbody--for NW IL--really puts a perspective on things. My 11 y/o Escape--all Texas driving--is cleaner that the '06, especially the A arms. Mind, TX does not salt roads. And the last snow/ice event in DFW was in 2014 (the de-ice is a doped denatrured granite).
On my old Yukon it was that evap solenoid that went out about every 4 months. The first replacement had a lifetime warranty so I just kept swapping them. The biggest part of swapping it was dropping the spare tire with the spare tire hoist. Those things almost never cooperate.
Nice! Always amaze me with the professionalism and dedication to doing it friggin right ... we need more like you Wes!
My 04 Chevy Venture has a abs line that's broken off at the wheel sensor, no abs for me without changing the hub. Guess I don't need abs all that much. Good video
when abs first came out it killed a few, you almost need 'special training' in use and operation. I guess I'm spoiled I have and still do drive cars that don't really have brakes. brakes really are over rated.
@@johnditch6357 hope your name isn't the place you use for stopping. It was going bad in 2013 but in 2015 it must have fallen apart because since then the light is on and abs is off
Talk about not trusting test equipment. Had this one job fixing a tractor with an electronic governor. Threw a ton of codes that were nonsense. After a lot of tests it pointed to an ecu failure. After I installed a brand new genuine ecu we had a completely new set of codes that sent us down another trail. Turned out the new ecu was junk as well.
I've been down that road many times with cars that I've installed used computers in!! That's when you start second-guessing your diagnosis and pulling your hair out!
This one time in particular I can remember very fondly, we went through four computers on a Buick rendezvous before we got a good one!!!! FOUR!
By computer number three my boss was starting to get annoyed with me and questioning my diagnostics lol
I always encourage people to check their probes before using a Meter or Scope against a known signal. (Your scope probably has a reference signal output on it)
I've got myself at it chasing Red Herrings too many times when much younger because of faulty equipment.
Hindsight is such an Exact science
I guess it's about perspective. Being from Arkansas, i'm amazed at the amount of rust on that pickup. ;)
Rust jacking is very common on the wheel speed sensors here in the North. Every year in the Spring summer I'd take mine apart and clean them and put him back together.( 2004 Silverado crew cab)It's quicker then replacing wheel bearings. And in the rust belt will bearings are a pain in the hooha to get out. Really admire your channel , like a good mechanic always check your equipment, i have noticed you drop a few Eric O sayings on your channel. You must be an SMA watcher.lol.. Either way keep up the great work. Personally if I known all the problems these trucks have associated with them I would have kept my 1997 Sierra half ton and rebuilt it ,vs buying a 2004 crew cab Z71. I have owned the truck for 8 years and every year I seemed to put money into it tackling these demons that plague this vehicle.. In my opinion my 1997 was built so much better than this 2004. In my 78 square body is built better then any of them.. thanks for video
Hey Wes. Thank you. I’ve got an 02 pathfinder with evap codes I couldn’t clear. Did diagnose a bad fuel pressure sensor, bud still got codes. Saw this video on checking flow on the canister. Helped me figure out had a leak where busted bolts on purge valve was. Hit it with epoxy, and wa-la, no check engine light. Thank you.
G'day Wes and greetings from Tasmania Australia, I happened to stumble across your Chanel and I have found it one of the best of watched because it involves all manner of different mechanical problems. Great stuff I have subscribed and look forward to the next instalments, kind regards John
One of the best repair videos I've watched. Very much appreciated!
Wes, “Next time”?!?! So now we have to wait? Now my weekend is ruined because I won’t be able to sleep until the next episode - haha. Glad you figured out the test leads were bad. Those are super important!
I'm pretty sure your collaboration with Unstoppable was primarily responsible for her reaching 100K subscribers. You'll get there on your own merits.
As a Midwesterner, I scratch my head when people opt to not undercoat their vehicles. That truck was a glorious sight.
Ask @Mrs Wes to step up her TH-cam game. Either make cameos on your channel or increase content output on hers please 🤣
@David Crossley Some of it is just a gimmick. My dad had his '86 F-150 "rustproofed" by Rusty Jones, and it actually rusted out faster than his previous uncoated Ford truck. No wonder that company went out of business a long time ago :P Anyway, there is some good stuff out there, but you have to do your research first.
Wes, any chance you'd have time to cut into that canister to show whats inside? You know us guys are visual Lol and learn alot by actually seeing the layout inside. Thanks for the extra vids. Really appreciate it
Haha, I just ran into this on the exact same year of truck, could have used this video a couple weeks ago! My wheel speed sensor was the left hand side, but on a positive note, the cruise started working again after it was replaced. For what it's worth, my truck has a quarter million on it, and the solenoid was fine, the canister was the problem, and I did not see loose charcoal falling out.
Well done on finding the problem with the testing equipment.
Hey Wes love your vids. Very intelectual and love how you show your thought process and how you solve the obstacles you encounter
I am new to your channel after the unstoppable Morgan video. I actually watch this video had not a clue what was going on but I learned something new. I wish I had a mechanic like you here where I live.
I was a mechanic during my working life...BELIEVE ME guys like WES are VERY few and far between. Honest, very knowledgeable and professional. I too wish I had one like him near me.
@@HansFormerlyTraffer You probably do, but you just haven't found him/her. Honest and capable people abound, but it can be difficult to find those people in specific fields as a customer. But once you do, you latch on to them and don't let go!
JFC an 06 with 52k miles is a $10k truck in Ca. In 2023! Whata find!
I'm changing my charcoal canister now. Thank you for the video sir
I got lucky enough to find a mechanic who cares about my vehicles as much as I do, so every time I'm near his shop I bring donuts or buy the guys lunch.
Location location location....the underside of the wasn't bad although I'm in Arizona and out here we don't see the undersides end up looking like that. Either way it still wasn't bad at all considering the age. I'm very new to your channel and I'm really liking it so far and I'm sure it'll end up learning stuff. Keep up the great work and I'll see ya when I see ya.
Wes enjoy your channel. Had a similar problem a few years ago on a tahoe only difference was when I unhooked the the vent line t was full of charcoal and so were all other lines even the purge all the way to the engine. Not a fun job. enjoyed your troubleshooting.
That's not fun.
As always another great video. It’s weird because I hate being at work doing stuff like this, but love watching you do your thing. I do like seeing some the tools you use and have bought a few things because of you,
Not being a mechanic I don't think I would ever understand all that code reading and electronics. But thanks for all the information.
Faulty diagnostic equipment can ruin your day fast, nice catch
That's one well looked after rig and worked on hope you find some more great to work on vehicles that are looked after all the best to you and your loved ones
Well I have 05 Silverado and my wheel speed sensor was broke in now I know why my ABS light is on thank you for this video
The clogged canister is common. They also have a TSB for relocating vent filter but it doesn’t really help.
some of those ABS pump modules were know for water intrusion into and through the harness/connector plug and also the module to pump seal allowing the solenoid side pins to corrode. also the sensor plug and chassis harness side, it may only act up when wet (driving in/after rain/snow/salt)
I forget what year range had that issue the worst and cannot think of anything else offhand. just way too many things going on in my dome ;)
** so DO spray everything down with garden hose two or three times over a 15 to 30 minute period let it stand another 30 minutes and go test drive! I am in the northeastern Ohio rustbelt. been there done that and learned that hard way
Watching your videos is my Escape
You should get a hobby, or a pet or something!
@@WatchWesWork Awwww...why don't you be more specific...work with him a little. Jason, Watch my videos and take up machining with a little Chinese mini lathe. Fun and educational.
Mostly if it is the canister vent valve the check engine light would be on. What I have noticed here in the north east about this issue is the fact there are 2 things that cause this most is the fact these pumps fail early in the trucks life some never even hit 20K miles before the pumps short out because rain shorts em out the RAIN WATER ICE SNOW lays atop of the pump under the bed and mostly after the trucks first freezing cold winter ice does em in... Then People do not properly reinstall the main filler hose some folks do not pick a hot sunny day nor do they lubricate the filler tube so it goes back together correctly sometimes ya get a KINK in the main filler hose or the vent hose which the metal vent hose is also know to rust completely off the filler neck or the filler next rusts out is the number two issue I see most here in the rust belt... Nobody can pick an exact hot sunny day to repair the fuel pump but it is best after that fuel tank is down and out of the vehicle to also install a piece of rubber roofing over the entire fuel tank. Get a piece a foot larger than the entire tank all the way around. Make sure your hoses are seated correctly and replace metal filler tube even if it is slightly rusty you will be glad you did that. I SAND MY NEW FILLER TUBES AND EPOXY PRIME AND PAINT EM. iT GOES A LONG LONG WAY HERE IN THE RUST BELT STATE I LIVE IN... some folks R ignorant of the fact the filler can be attached from up top in the gas door area and they try to separate the tank and the filler tube and that will cause an issue seen it too many times here.. That is usually the cause of not being able to fill the tank..
I've never seen one of those vent systems here in the UK 🤷 , just seems like more things to go wrong , bad enough having DPFs , cats and EGR systems.
Only the gas vehicle have vent systems, not diesels
If you can take apart the filter (no goo anyway) you can get the same charcoal beads at any pet supply ,they are used for fish aquariums. Then seal the filter back together with ABS black glue from plumbing supply at hardware store.
To put the beads in the filter just cut a 3 sided flap in the filter. Dump out the charcoal and put the same amount back in. Close the flap and glue with the ABS glue.
Doesn't look like bar&chain oil, but as cheap, simple to apply undercoatings go, it's the best. Mustie1 really knows his stuff, B&C and a dusty road.
I can’t imagine living in your world where that is a “clean” truck. The conditions we live by in AZ are so vastly different from Midwest and eastern life that it constantly blows my mind people still live there. That is almost a totaled vehicle here that most people I know would never buy unless it was dirt cheap because of the rust condition and they would run it to the ground and leave it on the side of the road when it died. I’m editorializing a bit but it’s really hard to emphasize how bad that is. My 24 yr old suburban looks like the day it was made underneath. I almost didn’t buy my 15 yr old Subaru Outback because it had light surface oxidation on the aluminum from California for 5 years before coming to AZ. Props to you I guess for helping people keep cars running in those conditions.
I dunno. Around here this is considered "rust free".
Yea but the dash doesn't crack from the heat and the interior and paint don't fade from the sun. Not to mention, the snow kills the scorpions and rattlesnakes. There are tradeoffs.
There are, rubber bushings and plastics do wear out faster here than anywhere else, but I would rather have to change rubber bushings every 5-8 years instead of my car disintegrating. I also put seat covers on seats, a dashmat and put a cheap sun shade in the window when parked and I have never had a dash crack or peel or break. My cars are 1983, 1995, 1996, 1996, 1997, 2001, 2002, and 2005, no cracked dashes and none near cracking. I can fight the sun, can’t fight the rust.
Still, I'll take some rust over the scorpions and rattlesnakes and all the other nasties that don't die because it never gets cold.
Dangerous creatures are very overrated out here, like people thinking we rode horses to school there are many misconceptions about how the desert works. In the last 20 years I’ve probably seen 3 rattlesnakes. The pack rats are the biggest issue but all those animals survive underground when it freezes so cold doesn’t really kill them off
That abs issue could be the wheel bearing failing internally leaving magnetic debris on the tone ring and sensor. Every one of these trucks ive owned has had front wheel speed sensor issues lol
Another great informative video! I'm impressed with your troubleshooting skills, not to mention all of your skills. you have a great deal of knowledge about cars, trucks both big and small, tractors, small engines, electronics, machining etc.. I'm a new subscriber and I've been catching up on many of your past videos. I was watching the one that you revived a polaris four wheeler, in which you said several times that it had a "two cycle engine" I don't know of any engine that has two combustion cycles. Granted a number of equipment manufacturers claim to use "two cycle" engines, there is no such thing. They do however have TWO STROKE engines. It's apparent that you're a very smart guy and this was probably a slip of the tongue. That's it with my nitpicking, so please keep these great videos coming!
Thanks Wes, great video, excellent work, nice looking truck.
Delighted to see I'm not the only one that keeps the original protective plastic film on the screen of all my electronics, I don't understand people who rip them off. If you can use the item with it still on just leave it there, it prevents scratches, there's nothing worse than a scratch on a screen, it does my head in. Plus trying to fit one of those aftermarket screen protectors is a nightmare, you end up with bubbles or it doesn't line up quite right... #OCD
90,000+ subs! Congratulations 👍
It probably helps to have a background in the equipment used to diagnose machine tools to be able to accept that one's test equipment can be in error. That's not a common assumption at all (although I have to admit to having had a test rig for my Klein multimeter, as there are few things in life as frustrating as driving 200 miles to a job and having a bad meter).
Keep going the way you are with various repairs. Thx
I have trouble filling my gas tank too. After some quick troubleshooting I diagnosed the problem to be that the monetary funds are too low to translate into enough fuel to make the volume of fuel present in the tank equal to the volume of a full tank.
I'm in Minnesota with a similar problem. Pretty sure mine is the valve though. I will remember to check the cannister first. I wish I could find rockers to weld in on mine. Everyone is out right now.
We'd call that a rust bucket down here in Texas. Where is the new handy-dandy pico scope you were showing off? You could have compared your results and saved some trouble.
In UK we would spray underside with waste oil or diesel oil mix or some special coating company take ur bank balance
Great job, good to see your busy.
Thanks 👍
Damnit Wes that thing is clean.

My 1992 ford xlt truck has a charcoal canister but it is under the hood close the motor facing up?
Yes. Probably looks like a coffee can.
@@WatchWesWork sure doe's
Crazy that in the midwest this is considered rust-free - where I come from out west, this truck looks INSANLEY rusty, definitely too far gone in my mind. I don't think I'd touch this one, even with mileage that low.
First you stuck your finger in the gas tank hole, then you pull out plastic pumps, should we rate the video as rating R😁. Enjoy your videos Wes God bless 😊👍
Waiting for part 2 Wes!!! Great job!!
What happened with the blend door? I have the same problem on my 2006, was looking forward to your troubleshooting process.
That was a lot of pressure in that tank!
I always thought that hiss of pressure equalisation when you remove the filler cap to fill up was air rushing in to take the place of the fuel I've used.
It puzzled me because if I was making a tank from scratch I'd use a breather pipe to the atmosphere to equalise the pressure in the tank so the fuel pump has an easier time & to allow for thermal effects. Expansion in volume & vapour pressure of the fuel must be higher on hot days.
Have I been wrong all these years?
I'm no expert, but I do believe that environmental protections prevent that direct venting. It instead has to be routed through that canister he replaced so that evaporated fuel isn't directly vented to atmosphere and is instead captured by the canister and routed through the engine to be burned off.
Test equiptment fail can cause lots of trouble.
Once I was troubleshooting telehandlers proportional hydraulic valve problems. I found out that proportional valves ground cable had 67Ohms resistance. I made new ground connections. Still same.
Then I measured all ground cables from battery, through slew center joint up to controllers. Still same 67ohms.
Finally when i got 67ohms between battery negative pole and frame(between is 1foot cable) is started to think my Fluke meter. Then suddenly all grounds shoved ~0ohms. What happened? I turned ignition off. How can it affect to Fluke when probing in 1foot cable
Always good video, always a thumbs up before I start watching
