  • This is a 1991 GM TBI system. I know it is old and we don't see many of these systems anymore, but the fundamentals still apply to ALL fuel pump and fuel delivery designs. From the mechanical return type, to mechanical return-less (regulator in the tank), to electronic return-less (no regulator) systems. Even the low pressure, delivery side, of today's GDI systems! Fundamentals my friends, they do not change and this video will be valuable information for troubleshooting all of these systems. Sure there are some minor differences in testing, depending on the fuel delivery design, but the core of this is the same!
    What is covered in this video:
    1. How to identify a lean condition
    2. Visual spray pattern test of a TBI injector
    3. Using the oxygen sensor to ID a fuel delivery problem
    4. Measuring fuel psi on a return type system
    5. How to check fuel pump max psi (dead-head test)
    6. Fuel pump power and ground testing
    7. Fuel pump current and RPM measurements
    8. How to ID a good ground on your meter
    9. Fuel pump motor disassembly to show brushes and commutators
    10. Discussion of testing for bleed down issues

    That "hose" isn't really a hose. It's thicker and called a pulsator. It's supposed to smooth out any pulses in the fuel delivery. A new one is supposed to come in the box with the new fuel pump. Can't ignore changing that part. Great video with lots of useful information.

    • @joe1273
      @joe1273 2 года назад

      No thats just a hose, pulsators are metal and look like a small old school master cylinder cap.

    • @ScannerDanner

    • @VashthStampeede
      @VashthStampeede 2 года назад

      @@joe1273 I know the part you are speaking of, however some were just a piece of hose about twice as thick as fuel hose only without braiding. It served the same purpose as the metal one. Nonetheless my point was a new one comes in the box for a reason, and should not be ignored when changing the fuel pump. If the pump had been recently changed, as Paul suspected, the changer screwed up by leaving the old one in. I've been ASE certified since it started in 1975 and know what I'm talking about.

    Mechanics even ask me: "Why do you buy expensive scanners?" and then answer the question themselves saying because "it tells you everything". I wonder how are they mechanics when they don't understand a tool that is so important in this industry. A lot of mechanics only think that a mechanical tool to replace parts is all they need.

    I couldn’t believe it when I seen it! I just removed my neighbor’s fuel pump in his 1991 GMC Sierra TBI. I watched your video and did my testing the best I could with just my multi meter. I determined it was the fuel pump since I do have voltage with a load and a solid ground at the pump and no fuel pressure at all. My filter was restricted but not blocked but figured the pump went out because of the restriction (old age). I tilted the bed and removed the pump and took a look at it afterwards and I couldn’t believe that mines had a crack (tear) in the exact spot as the one in your video! The exact same truck, make and model.
    I watch videos to get myself familiarized before I start and see what I might run into since my mechanic days are over for me because of my age (70). The symptoms I had are exactly like yours in the beginning of this video. Engine starts but won’t stay running and can’t increase RPM’s, falls flat on its face in a second or two. Would run if spray carb cleaner into the throttle body. As soon as I seen the tear in my pump, I remembered this video and had a good laugh that is had the exact same problem. I’m lucky here in Hawaii as our vehicles aren’t rusty underneath, all of my fasteners were easy to remove with minimal rust. Thanks for the video and tips which made my experience in fixing my fuel problem easier to resolve.

    But i had a 88 S10 2.5 5speed an it did this issue an worse on turns an so i had a idea to fill the tank up or put more gas in it an sure enough that's exactly what was wrong the hose inside the tank for the fuel pump had a hole in it and when I had a full tank it would run good . An then I started to hear the fuel pump spraying inside the tank from that hose being bad so I knew for sure that's what had happend .

    You guys really earn your money. Explanations very thorough so even a newbie can almost keep up.
    Would love to drive to you but I can't even drive in my drive let alone to the US.
    My car (2006 Opel Tigra Twintop) starts fine but cuts out after 10 secs. Fuel tank 1/4 full -- so at least the sender in the new pump I fitted is working.
    Under advice of those who know more than me, I changed the fuel filter, the fuel pump (nightmare); no difference. As for the regulator, mine is within the fuel pump assembly, fitted to and part of the whole fuel pump assembly and not sold as a separate item. I have a Schrader valve on the fuel rail to take a pressure tester but 99% of kits don't have the appropriate fitting... go figure. One is arriving Monday that is supposed to have such a fitting. If I hear the click from the rear when turning key to position 2 (1 being just pushing it in) that means electrics are fine, right? ... Or having seen your vid I'd better see if I can check the wiring plug going into the pump.
    Have a cheap Obd2 tool but that's not showing any codes; would buy even up to 200 dollar one if it would find the fault but have spent much time reading up on them and they all have a considerable number of detractors -- 10% of 45,000 ratings puts me off. Any advice please anyone. I see you have a vid on that so will look at it...
    Thanks again for your work. I don't want to be a mechanic, just be my mechanic.

    I have ran into this problem before. The deadhead test showing zero pressure increase was your clue that the coupler hose at the pump was leaking. Even a weak pump would have shown some increase in pressure if that coupler hose was good. Thank you for another awesome video.

    • @ScannerDanner
      @ScannerDanner  2 года назад +1

      The deadhead test did not reveal anything to us beyond a weak pump. If a pump cannot reach fuel psi regulated psi (13 in this case), it is essentially running under a deadhead condition already. The regulator remained completely closed, no different than my pliers did. Make sense?

    • @johnsmog3746
      @johnsmog3746 2 года назад

      @@ScannerDanner OK So in this system had you only replaced the hose the pressure may have increased but until it surpassed the regulated pressure there would be no pressure increase with a deadhead test. And of course if it did get up to specified pressure there would be no issue. Got it and thanks again for everything you and your son do for this industry.

      been there done that, replaced many of them that dry-rotted and split. a tell tale sign is listening to the fuel filler with cap off and tank less than 1/4 filled, it sounds like a waterfall inside when running or key turning to prime the system or powered with test connector.
      make sure it's submersible rated fuel hose/section and it's always a great idea to replace the pump and strainer screen while at it! I got bit by that a few times.

    Nice find. I had a 1997 miata recently that had a brand new pump fitted less than a year before it came to me on a hook with no fuel pressure. I'm scratching my head at my fuel pressure gauge and had to go straight to the pump outlet at the tank. No pressure. Pull the pump. Split hose. BUT. I discovered that the previous dude used a new piece of hose to connect the pump to the outlet pipe in the tank - except that it was heater hose:-O

    SD, you are so right. If the fuel filter is puffy-cheeks plugged on a return system, try to sell a fuel pump too. I've seen so many FP fail shortly after clogged filter, and it's annoying for customer. Not as critical on RETURNLESS system, i suppose due to system always dead headed.

    That pump looks like one that was not designed for ethanal fuel causing the rubber to "rot
    The use of an adjustable timing light is what I used to watch fuel injector pulse to the TBI's to check fuel delivery or a clogged/dirty injector.

  • @LAW-fv6ys

    I've had a fuel pump on a 2.0fsi vw golf 2006 which would run great for nearly 2hrs and then misfires into limp mode not allowing over 3k rpm. Turns out if I had low fuel level it would do it sooner than 2hrs, especially if I stayed in a layby after a hard drive and let it heat soak. The reason was a weak pump which when the return fuel comes back to the tank its hot and then warms the whole fuel tanks fuel, this caused the pump to become weaker to the point it would reduce flow under load. Was a very hard one to diagnose. Live data on vcds logs just caught it once so I could see the tps go to 0, even though my foot was planted, the rpm bounce at 3k in limp mode and then I could see the low side pressure had dropped from 5.5bar to less than 3bar.
    The new pump held 6bar dead irrespective of load and its is pwm system so it should hold a fixed value. The hpfp is also a big failure item on these cars but the live date log showed the hpfp pressure were excellent.
    Is there any way to fault find this any type of issue any quicker guys?

    Purchased a 91 s10 with a 4.3. Dude unloaded a parts cannon at it because it would idle up and down, and die when given any throttle. Fuel was dripping out of the injectors trying to run so I questioned injectors but didnt want to just fire injectors at it. Guy had already replaced the entire throttle body but that still doesnt mean it was good. Infact I think the throttle body came from either a 5.0 or 5.7 because it ran fairly rich after replacing the pump. Found on a forum that with a fresh pump if you unhook the filter itll shoot fuel like 6 feet. I unbolted my filter, keyed it on and barely got a dribble. Put a pump in and tried the same thing and ended up with the gas version of a super soaker under the truck lol bolted everything back and it ran very well after that just rich.

    Always a great video Paul. Thanks for your time.
    Now wouldn’t checking pump rpm show how the hose is split and causing the “overrunning” speed of the pump, like being out of gas? The ones I’ve had the current is low, rpm is high is usually a good clue of out of gas or split hose in tank.

    • @ScannerDanner
      @ScannerDanner  2 года назад

      it wasn't much lower, not enough for me to even think along these lines my friend. 3 amps before, 4 amps after the fix, and only about 600 rpm difference too

    I had a Mk1 Ford focus that had a fuel pump issue that I diagnosed. I changed the pump and Still had a no start. I could here the pump priming but no start. I ended up deopping the tank and pulling the pump again and checking all the work and to make sure I had not leaks or the pick up had a good seal. All was fine and good so reassembled it and installed the tank. It had me going for abit as I still had no fuel to the engine. Then I realised the new pump was wired backwards compared to the car. I lifted the rear seat and switched the wires leading to the fuel pump. The vehicle came to life and ran fine for a couple years. Funny that car came back as the cheap pump that the customer had me put in died 😅. I advised him to replace it with a much better OEM quality pump and then I had to switch the fuel pump wires back to original as the new pump was wired correctly 😂. The car has not had a problem since with the fuel pump.
    Haha that had me going for a bit though, stupid cheap crap parts.

      Thanks my friend! Nice job and the find. I've had one of those too, and believe it or not we caught it with the amp probe and scope. It had very high rpm and very low amperage (2 amps maybe on a 8-10 amp pump). It was a good clue 😀

    Hey Scanner Danner, long time since I have commented on one of your videos, I have had those symptoms (carpark to workshop drive) with a large vacuum leak rather than low fuel pressure, too much air rather than not enough fuel. Obviously snap throttle test will show whether it is a fuel delivery issue but you can get caught out if you don't know.

    That might have been the original equipment pump, seeing as how the truck has less than 30,000 miles. The main reason I suspect that is because of the black strainer sock; I haven't seen a black sock on any modern pump recently (they're usually white, yellow or green). The old rubber hoses also didn't hold up well to the newer gasoline blends and tend to swell or crack.
