Holding on for Corolla updates!
Thanks for watching until then! It helps funding the experiments/repairs😊Much appreciated!
@@FamilyFriendlyDIY Dave, you have been so diligent and consistent with your Corolla project that I think most of us are right here with you. Do it well, do it right, take your time. Your effort is a great benefit to many. Thank you!
Thanks Martin! :-)
Just anxious for the next corolla video
You are lucky you live inthe South! If you lived in the rust belt you would have been drilling and tapping every hole and replacing all hardware including the straps!
I learned how fuel pumps fail and how to repair them, thank you
Thank YOU for watching! :-)
@@FamilyFriendlyDIY Thank you for sharing. I learned how yo clean an old engine, with your Corolla, which I was very curious but nobody was doing what you did: following progress and testing different flush products 🏆😁👍
Great vid! Another bonus is that I just learned how to reset the trip computer on my Sequoia that I’ve had for 11 years.
Ha -- I love it!
Great video Dave! You made it seem so easy. One recommendation I'd give, if you don't mind, is to add a year of the car in the title or description, for when other folks with the same issue will be looking for instructional videos on YT, they find yours!
Thanks, and thanks for the input :-)
dave i gotta say im so excited to see another corolla video😂 im planning on tearing apart the engine in my 01 rolla soon as well🙏
Great video DIY Dave! My fuel gauge light and dial is on Empty even when I fill the tank to full. Truck runs fine and not losing any pressure or power. Can a bad sender cause these symptoms?
The engine cleaners may have damaged your valve seals.
Please use AT205 Reseal to see if it expands your valve stem Seals and stops oil consumption on your Corolla in your next experiment. You may just have the bad luck of gouges on the cylinder walls from low oil or infrequent oil changes. In that case it's unfixable without totaling your car.
Love the work
Great videos
Much appreciated Michael!
Great Video. All the time Toyota guys saying how bad is to work on BMW…. Wow
Your braver than I am. I would not trust a random aftermarket fuel pump. I would have at least gotten a Denso fuel pump instead of Toyota. If it bolt to the outside I will take my chances with aftermarket parts especialy if I need it today. If it goes inside of the engine, transmission, differential or fuel tank I like to at the very least go with a quality name brand part or Toyota part. It is always a hassel to do a job twice or to pay someone else to do it twice!
Delphi is major parts manufacturer that makes a lot of original equipment manufacturer parts (OEM). They're also one a major automotive electronics manufacturer so I would say Dave is in good shape as far as the fuel pump goes.
I usually buy Denso parts whenever available, and actually started looking for the pump by typing "Denso" in the search, but the searches kept forcing me back to Delphi. Weird.
Timing for an empty tank is the worst part of any drop tank work, especially in the really long truck tanks that unbalance so easily while lowering.
👍
👍👍😊
I had the same problem with my Toyota Avensis 1ZZ-FE (Europe model car), It was due to a bad seal in the engine oil vapors. Fresh air was enter to the engine, the ECU not be able to manage the lean state injecting more gas to the engine.
Looks like they gave you allot more hose for your connections that I had for mine in my Focus. The tank had to be screwed at least half way in by the holding straps before I could even put the evap and filler neck hose back on. Nice job though.
Whoa. I don't think I would have been able to see what I was doing if that had been the case. Thanks for the comment!!
You're welcome! :D
The filler neck had a 1/4 to 1/2 inch slit where you could see the hose JUST above where it fit onto the tank, which helped. The real rub was the evap hose as that was tucked up into the bumper when the tank was partially installed. That I had to do by feel for both putting the hose on and tightening the hose clamp. Took just as long to get that put back together; as it took to do everything else up to that point.
@@Pantherman1979 Bet you felt like you really accomplished something when you were done 👍👍... those are the best jobs to look BACK on. :-)
Interesting. how pump affected your consumption. so was car running rich before, or is it running lean(pressure too low) and hot now 🤔. My 1.1ton celica 1zz-fe now gets terrible gas mileage like 23mpg, i wonder if new pump would fix it back to 30mpg
I think it's because the lower pressure of the failing pump wouldn't allow the injectors to make a nice atomized spray, so using the O2 sensors the computer probably compensates by leaving the injectors open longer to get the same burn.
Makes one wonder if you just needed a fuel filter change.
I thought about that too-- after the fact, but I'm pretty sure I changed the fuel filter a few years ago not long before I first started getting the code ... and at 240k miles, I figured better safe than sorry.
A one day sender/pump rebuild.. Nice. Dave, you're become a professional amateur mechanic. The only other thing I can say is please stop stealing Feisty Kate's coffee cup. Looking forward to Corolla updates.
FK jumping in here to exonerate DIY Dave concerning alleged coffee cup theft...
For the record, I cannot even abide the smell of coffee and only drink hot tea. If you ever see him drinking coffee from a ceramic mug with a majestic blue whale image on it, please know that Dave lived a good life and hope that he enjoyed that final cup of joe.
@@FamilyFriendlyDIY LOL, roger. Man up on those mugs, Dave! No more flowers...
I knew it was going to be wasted money the second you showed rhis transfer pump... I was dissapointed with it too - luckily I managed to sell it to someone who apparently knows how oto operate it, as thia person never complained after byuing it from me... or perhaps does not want to admit it was wasted money too in his case LOL
Had the same problem with my tacoma Toyota pickup . Went to the dealer he charged me $110 dollars no sending unit just the pump motor and a new sock filter.
😮that's a great price!
Yeah, when was this because shop rates are ridiculous now
Can you please use amsoil engine flush for oil consumption series and amsoil engine oil. I heard amsoil the best engine oil in usa
Given the mileage on the Sequoia, why not just replace the whole fuel pump assembly complete with sending unit and strainer instead of just a few pieces of the assembly? At least that way everything would be new.
Cataclean - works. Cleared code on my Corolla
Are you done with oil consumption series?
I'm still planning a few more videos to fix the Corolla ... just have some logistical things I need to work through -- as mentioned in the video.
Also, after watching this video I must say I would probabably spend this extra money and got the original Toyota part - and not some Denso pump - I don't want to be a prophet here, but you might get through this effort of dropping the fuel tank in the very short future again LOL
I bet Denso or Delphi made the original Toyota pump to begin with.
@@thatsonebadhatharry8610 I don't think so - I have been watching The Car Care Nut channel for a longer time when I used to drive toyoat (not anymore) and he mentioned many times that not original parts in these cars make more problems than you can imagine
Is the Corolla using the factory pump?
yes
@@FamilyFriendlyDIY Denso fuel pumps are good.
Nice video but when I went to the links I noticed that two of the links are the same. The one for the sending unit sends you to the gasket.
Thanks and thanks for letting me know ... I'll have to fix that. --- it should be correct now :-)
Hi which fuel pump you went with?
Delphi
The first hose you took off. I cannot get that thing off it’s a pain
Sorry about that. Did you ever get it off?
You should be able to do this job from the top no need to lower tank. There should be an access cover under the seats I would imagine.
In cars, sometimes. In trucks, not usually. The tank is typically located entirely under the back half of the truck, which is the bed. There is never an access panel in the bed.
I wish there was! I thought about cutting one. My daughter's CRV has a fuel pump access panel under her back seat -- I did a video changing that one as well. -- that was cake!
Good job Dave... now tell me...I'm a chain smoker and find it very satisfying to smoke a Marlboro red with the filter broke off while working on my car...can I remove the fuel pump unit while I got one of these babies in my mouth 😂...
Looks like the fuel dripped in his face. Just be careful that doesn’t accidentally extinguish your cigarette. 😜
As long as it's not lit :-)
I believe some lucas ucl in each tank will help fuel filter lubrication and better mpg
Interesting theory 🤔
Been thinkin ..where's Dave? My corolla ,196k,still going but losing oil faster now. leaking , cant see from where. yada yada.
there's many aspects of your car care vids i appreciate, eg, not fancy tools, lifts, garage, . Things i can relate to . Like myself , just an ordinary guy. However, I've always found something in your vids askew. Today, i realized it. It's something my father did when he fixed his own cars as i held the flashlight. I follow in the way of my father when i'm fixing my cars today. There can be NO car repair of any kind let alone the quite difficult job of fuel pump without swearing ! Religion , all faiths, creeds , and beliefs are set aside in the arena of car repair. For rusty nuts and stuck bolts and ill fitting parts are all god forsaken. These type things will only be swayed by using brute force and the language of the damned, (for they are such) and only give way when the curse word is shot at them. Often times , heaped upon them. Therefore, until i hear you utter a curse word whilst in the arena of car repair , your vids will remain suspect.
You're a regular Mark Twain. Great comment :-) ... I've loved educational videos since I was a kid, and I try to make them kid-friendly in case there's any mini-me out there watching.
