    EXCELLENT CHANNEL! Excellent info, especially for us non mechanics who are trying to diagnose and fix our cars when a REAL mechanic/garage can't! Priceless! Thank you!
    If anyone wants to comment...I just had the fuel pump replaced when it failed and left me sitting, mid drive. But when I got my 03 Buick Rendezvous back from the shop, it now just cuts out while driving. (Like it's not getting gas) If I let off the gas when it starts to happen, many times it will recover without shutting off. If I'm going up a hill and I continue to try to get up the hill by lightly giving gas as its slowing down, it WILL backfire. I returned it to the garage because interior lights were coming on and off while driving all the while this continued, thinking maybe they crossed the wires on the fuel pump upon installation. (Now these symptoms only happen AFTER it is warmed up. Never happens cold. Well the mechanic said it was the wiring harness and apparently replaced that. They said it was fixed (no charge 🙂) Picked it back up and same symptoms continue. Spitting sputtering cutting out and shutting off. (Not the battery, but the engine , losing power steering and brakes if I can't get it to "recover" by fanning the gas, or throwing it into neutral and revving.) Now I'm thinking gas pressure sensor?
    Any comments greatly appreciated!! Thanks yall, from this southern girl to....you? Lol)
    I should add recently before this I had a different shop remove my catalytic convertor (without my permission!) When I took it in to have 02 sensors replaced. A week after that, the fuel pump went up and when I got it out of the garage, that's when these new symptoms appeared.
    The adventure continues....🥴

    I've got 48 lbs of fuel pressure. It increases some on the guage when you press the acclerator.
    On cold starts it cranks right up and idels fine. Short one mile trip to grocery store, cut it off, shop for 15-30 minutes and it wont crank unless you press accelerator to floor. When it does crank it runs rough for about a minute or less but when I try to take off it stalls and goes dead sometimes leaving in middle of intersection!!!
    What's the problem?
    Coming home finally I stomped it and ran up to 90 miles an hour from about 50-55 mph.
    Runs famously. No hesitation no nothing. Performs great. Pull into yard, cut it off wait a few seconds then try to crank and it wont start again unless I put it on the floor.
    Pump?
    Fuel filter?
    Pressure regulator?
    I'm afraid to go anywhere now, especially the wife. We're both 74 and only vehicle???
    Note:Distributor cap rotor button, plugs and wires changed less than 10000 miles ago!

    It's still throwing the same code and also a code for the fuel pressure regulator circuit issue. What's your suggestion to check next I haven't noticed overheating but we don't know if the thermostat is bad it has water and there's no leaks.
    But we can't figure out the high idle problem and why it's still throwing the p 0 505 code

    No symptoms other than strong smell of fuel on startup, then it goes away. Took off the breather, no sign of leak in TBI. No idea why this is happening and I do not trust mechanics, burned too many times! Any ideas? It's a1993 Chevyvan G30 5.7L

      @@daltoncorzine2760 I changed the temperature sending unit by the thermostat and the purge valve, seems to have done the job, not saying that's gonna be your problem but it's worth a try, unhook the hose between the purge valve and the charcoal canister and if it's getting vaccum when the engine is cold, it's stuck open creating a vaccum leak, the temperature gauge can still work when that temprature sending unit is bad, and will make the computer think the engine is still cold when it's warmed up, just something to check, it drove me nuts.

      mine is having not starting when it has too. it hesitates big time. specially cold starts. it's town random multiple misfires. but its not that because once it starts car runs fine. I'm leaning towards it been bad battery, because battery is leaking acid. I believe fuel pressure has something to do with it not wanting to start right away maybe low fuel pressure

    Looking for advice on an 04 civic sedan manual transmission.
    How do I know if its the filter, pump, or fuel injectors? I checked the fuses. Not sure if its the relay. It just started idling extremely rough and stalling. Won't rev past 2000 rpm, no power. Feels like its starved of fuel. I got rear ended hard a few weeks ago. I don't know if its related. No check engine light. Could it be fuel pressure regulator?
    Just checked. The relay is working, the fuel pump is coming on. I unhooked the line, there's fuel pressure. I didn't measure the pressure just visually gas spurts out with pressure when I disconnect the line. Thinking of cleaning the MAF sensor and checking the coil packs. No check engine light. Anyone have an idea?

    We have tried to fix everything under the sun on my 1988 Chevy G20 it keeps bogging out and wanting to shut down even while we're driving on the highway then it will drive perfectly fine for miles and then it will act up again for a few seconds and then it will drive perfectly fine for another few miles if anyone can give me any help I'd appreciate it already changed the map sensor and the throttle position sensor the fuel pump the fuel filter none of these needed to be done but I'm trying to eliminate it since it doesn't have it OBD1 and I cannot get anything to help me understand what's going on. It also backfires and hesitates and skips but we changed the spark plugs and wires and cap and rotor and when we give it gas it stops acting up until it acts up again

    • @Celbrise
      @Celbrise 17 дней назад

      I'd bank more on the pump then the regulator being broken tbh. you can always just go the cheaper route and replace the regulator first since it's cheaper. same issues like what a bad/failing fuel pump does too. only big notice for mine is that the fuel pump is super loud and sometimes sounds like it is running dry. otherwise my car does start here and there, does drive, but also stalls getting 0 gas. lucky for me i get to change both so it doesn't matter too much sad part is this pump i got failing is only a year old. OEM one completely died out with 0 warning motor just gave out one day.

    • @TreyGoose
      @TreyGoose Год назад +1

      What kinda car you have? It could be a few things. Might have a fuel line leak in the engine bay or a evap leak somewhere and it's causing the smell. Most likely a old line or hose allowing vapors to circulate ☝I recommend after driving your vehicle for a few minutes pull over and pop the hood and see if you can pin point where the smell is coming from. Could even be a cracked gas tank filler hose
