Best video content on fuel pump failure causes and how to temporarily find a quick solution to get home. The mallet (in my case a wooden stick) method worked PERFECTLY to re-energise the pump and get me home! YOU ARE THE BEST!..... many, many THANKS!!!!
I'm about to change out the pump on my old Fiat after barely making it home recently. I'm new to the mechanic stuff, and your video brought a lot of clarity to me. Very glad to find you as a resource. Subscribed.
Thank you for explaining everything really well. This is exactly what’s happening to my truck. My low fuel pressure light came on a few weeks before my car stopped on me. It won’t crank, it was stalling, it kept turning off on me especially on red lights. I bought a fuel pump and I’m getting it changed out today.
Great video. You actually explained hot heat can effect a fuel pump. My 95 Chevy only starts at night 😮. After the sun gets high or if I go for a short drive, it cranks but will not start unless I use starter fluid, then it quickly shuts right down. You nailed it. Thanks
Great video indeed top 5 one other thing that could make the fuel pump fail is a weak battery or a battery with bad battery cells, as this will cause a lack of voltage making the fuel pump work harder to send more gas to the engine, ultimately leading to a burnt out fuel pump. So make sure that you have a good battery as well. Also, a faulty or a weak fuel pump relay can cause this problem too.
Thanks for this very informative video . My 2000 honda accord just shut off and i tried starting but there is cranking and no start. So i ordered some new spark plugs and spark plug test kit, fuel pump main relay and a new fuel pump. If there is no spark i might look into a new distrubitor and spark plug wires as well. 😅
i was having issues with my car, i would start my car and it would sometimes take longer than usual. when id drive the power would fall on its face! i replaced the fuel filter and now it’s running right. i heard that if the fuel filter is clogged that fuel can travel backwards causing the pump to work harder and cause premature ware. luckily it doesnt seem to be having issues anymore. word to the wise, do the lesser of the troubleshooting options first and reflect and then go from there.
I had my chevy malibu 2013 stalling 3 times at highway speeds. Looking for the problem I started replacing the thorthle body as it was dirty i had no stalling after that but then after some time I noticed rought iddle I opened the gas cap and a rattle noise is coming from the tank when watching your video I decided to bought the fuel pump
You right on target I am experiencing all the symptoms. Nissan sentra filter is in the tank everything on the pump in tank. Replace all fuel injectors 02 sensors spark plugs ignition coils as you drive lose fuel pressure and causing misfire and engine. stalling vibration.
my honda has a separate filter for the fuel in the engine bay. on for the pump and another before it feeds to the engine. i replaced the fuel filter and it runs great once more!
Heres my priblem on 1999 jeep Cherokee limited 4.0 Cranks winderful on cold/ first start. Drive one mile to gricery store then wont crank unless i put it all the way on the floor. I stomped it on way home and it took off, no hesitation ran right on up to 90mph. Pulled in driveway, cut it off for about 30 seconds, tried recranking and again it wont start unless i press it all the way to the floor. Got a pressure guage and when ideling it shows 48 pounds. Opening up throttlebody slowly by hand and fuel pressure goes up some. It goes dead/stalls at the stop sign when i try to take off. Have to.put it on floor again to start. After cranking for about 10-15 seconds it cranks but runs rough for a few seconds i suppose because it received so much fuel when i had it on floor. Fuel pump?
Hi, Thank you very much for the very informative video. I just changed my spark plugs in my 2004 pajero petrol. After changing the spark plugs the car does not start. What may be the cause please? Regards.
Very good presentation about this common problem thank for taking time to make this video..How low is has to be the fuel pump pressure for an SUV to start running bad,the pressure for my chevy tahoe 2002 flex fuel is between 48 and 55psi but it has 44 psi ,Do you thing those 4 psi are important for the car to run well,It has code 0174?I sometime 0171,0300..subscribed as well.
The issue im having is my air fuel ratio is dropping and going back up after filling up with fuel the rpm is also dropping at the same time my car also shakes when the rpm and air fuel ratio drops. I did replace the purge value and o2 sensors and a new map sensor. The engine only stalls when in park after getting fuel. After i take off the car starts to go back to normal. Im thinking it has to be the high pressure sending unit.
i would like to ask' what is the possible cause of the problem of my bike' i replaced my fuel pump 4 mos ago then it suddenly not work' then i decided to buy a new one and installed it after 2 days my new pump is busted again. hope you can help me.
Good morning sir, please i have Hyundai Elantra UD 2014, the car will stall while driving and when it happened like that and you put it in parking and you start,it start again,i check the fuel pressure it ok, but there's no trouble code when you scan, please i need your help.
Hello I had a issue for vehicle. I stops suddenly when it is moving.. And starts after a minute and move some more miles and again it stops.. Same thing happening form last 4months. No one was solving this issue.
Transit in tank fuel pumps always suck up muck and water wax So this means the diesel filter clogs up as well So if your transit van runs for 2 miles and then cuts out or hard to start Its the filter blocked on the head of in tank fuel pump Its so easy to drop the fuel tank on transit only two bolts and to clips and fuel tank is out then just unscrew fuel pump Its best to do this every year or so Gary Gibbons motor mechanic 50 years
Wow ever time I put gas in my car and start it.. it cut off after a long crank before cutting on. Also I have to push the gas pedal for a few seconds before letting go so the car would stay on. Then today turned it off then tried to cut the car back on and all it did was tried to turn on. Took me an hour before it started. But yea having ever symptom
I been confused. I’ve been driving my car and it just completely stalls and shuts down. But the dash lights and such are on. It stalls won’t turn over and I wait about 10 to 20 mins then starts up again.
Next time when the vehicle stalls, spray starting fluid in the intake. If it starts right up then you know it's a fuel delivery issue most likely a failing fuel pump motor.
My highlander 05 has a bit of loss of power, and sometimes something bucking or shaking in the front. Sometimes jerky at certains speeds. Good compression, timing belt new and good, new spark plugs and coils. Has 02 Sensor codes, exhaust leak and sometimes random misfire codes.. even po0016 crank/cam shaft position sensor correlation. I don’t know, any ideas ?
I usually don’t comment on TH-cam but I thought this video was very informative, well made and straight to the point. Thank you 🙏🏼

2012 ford fusion just had this issue. Spot on. $980 fix at the shop
2011 here. Did you get the wrench and check engine light?
@@kentman0767yep I did
I wear CHANCLAS 😂Thanks for the INFO! Very knowledgeable- thanks again!!
Helpful video. I would drive out to the shops or to a friend and when i come back my car will crank and not start.
Great video. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Thanks for the video, I’m trying to help my mom out with her car and I think this might be the issue

Fuel pump?
Very useful, thankyou
My car stutters right after I put gas in my car every time … even when I’m just idling and havnt left the station is that a sign ?
I’m having the same issue. I’m about to get my fuel pump change. Hopefully that will take care of it
@@tiarababii1did it take care of it?
Very helpful video ty
Well done...thank you!
Hi,
Thank you very much for the very informative video.
I just changed my spark plugs in my 2004 pajero petrol.
After changing the spark plugs the car does not start.
What may be the cause please?
Regards.
Please check ignition coil connection
@@Top5AutoRepairs Thank you very much.
I checked and they are connected.
Hello, do you have wiring diagrams for these pumps?
Hey there ! Do you know where the 2012 CADILLAC ESCALADE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR is located ?
My cars jerks intermittently, once I get to 4th gear I lose all power.. is this a symptom?
Great video
I think my fuel pump might be going bad
Sometimes I get long cranking as if car is out of fuel 👍🏻
Crankshaft position sensor is the first thing to check. Symptoms of that sensor failing are the same as fuel system problems.
@@SunriseLAW thanks 🙏🏻
Your my hero

Is it good to used the old one?
If the low pressure pump fails will it cause the high pressure pump to break????
Also it's on a Honda Odyssey if that matters
Will all vehicles give a code? Vehicle has a no start but no codes whatsoever.
Yes. OBD1 and OBD II.

I'll make a video why your vehicle is stalling. Stay tune.
Hello I had a issue for vehicle. I stops suddenly when it is moving.. And starts after a minute and move some more miles and again it stops.. Same thing happening form last 4months. No one was solving this issue.
Hello. Check the crankshaft position sensor. It might be failing.
My 07 escalade will start and run for hours but as soon as i turn it off and turn it back on it sputters and dies then it'll crank but not turn over
I got a 2020 altima and something makes a grinding noise under my back seat what can that be and it only starts when can gets hot
Maybe it's the rear brakes or bad wheel bearing.
@@Top5AutoRepairs no it does in park not moving
@@Top5AutoRepairs only starts when I drive for hour or more it does it in park can a fuel pump get hot and start graining....?
Might be clogged fuel filter

how to dianose a main realy fuel pump?
Wow ever time I put gas in my car and start it.. it cut off after a long crank before cutting on. Also I have to push the gas pedal for a few seconds before letting go so the car would stay on. Then today turned it off then tried to cut the car back on and all it did was tried to turn on. Took me an hour before it started. But yea having ever symptom
would a fuel pump issue also cause the fuel gauge to stop working
That’s the sending unit. It shouldn’t be directly related to a fuel pump issues
What if the vehicle quits but cranks back up
I been confused. I’ve been driving my car and it just completely stalls and shuts down. But the dash lights and such are on. It stalls won’t turn over and I wait about 10 to 20 mins then starts up again.

I wish I could send you a video of my issue
If car randomly stall engine dies remove the key starts back on specially when downshiftting and quick turn
Did you ever find out? Exact same issues for me
@@dlok5206 Did you ever find out what the issue was. I'm honestly dealing with the same issue
My car is idling bad at the lights after going up hill
👍👍
No lie this is nothing video related but he looks like terrance howard 😂
😂 I can’t unsee it 😅
I routinely drive until fuel tank was on reserve and this had my car fail
It is funny, your failing fuel pump, reads FAKING FUEL PUMP.
