Man, this is one of the most helpful videos on fuel pumps I could find. Nailed at least 3 of my symptoms on the head!!! Thanks for taking the time to post this video.
Hi man I have a problem with a 99 corolla stalls and while driving no power and hesitates but when it starts and is just sitting in idle it’s just fine but stalls When put it in gear
@@martingonsalez6635 I have a 98 Corolla with the same exact issue! Except mine will shut off before I put it into gear if it sits for too long. My car has stalled multiple times when driving. It starts up just fine and will continue like it didn’t just die. Before changing the fuel pump, I just found out that it could be the fuel pump relay! Did you have any luck changing the fuel pump?
DOUBLEAGENTcity its not the following its the persons mind me one time i buy a bmw lost shit of money machanics wanted 4,000$ to fix it buy the car for 1.500$ i sad lost my money but then buy the book for the car my brain 60$ book An 60$ gasket took me 4 hour s but i did it saved 3,890$
Couldn't start my 1998 BMW Z3 1.9 L today 99,000 miles , later it would start , but when driving suddenly the rpm dropped off zero for a split second before recovering. Suspected fuel line clog. Your video I think is spot on. Thanks for explaining so concisely.
Excellent fuel pump failure symptoms analysis. Thank you. I think mine is the symptom of driving along and the engine just fails and have to pull off the side of the road and then after about 10 minutes can start it back up. I will change the fuel pump.
Straight to the point and I have every single one of the symptoms. I tried replacing fuel filter and spark plugs before, wish i wouldve just watched this video to start. thanks a loy
This is a great video Rob. Earned a sub for sure. Love that he gave thorough examples for each symptoms. Really gunna help me diagnose my issues. Thanks Rob!
I just had this happen to me yesterday. Car completely died while driving on a mountain top. I have a 2011 Versa and just had a tune up and this literally explained what happened thank you ❤️
Robert you're a damn wizard brother. I literally punched my fuel tank after listening to your video. My God it worked.. was no longer stranded in a snow storm. Got me to the gas station. God bless Robert.
You are a genius, an angel & a LIFE SAVER Sir! RAV4 1998 Toyota 204,650-mi. Guess I "got away" w/ a "free 79,650-mi. on the FUEL PUMP (beyond your 175,000-mi.). Got stranded 2-days ago. Wouldn't start for 30-min. away from home. Then all of a sudden she just fired right up-- after 2 police officers stopped to render aid. I am ordering my new genuine OEM Toyota Fuel Filter now. It's 5-times more expensive than after-market, but you know what? The factory one lasted 204,650-mi. so it's worth it! God bless you Robert! Super educational, spot-on target, well-illustrated, super SMART video. Now I can sleep tonight!
Good video! I’m a amateur mechanic, I’ve worked for O’Reilly Auto parts off and on between 2005-2017. Enjoyed how you relayed and presented the information.
What a likeable guy... he's replied to damn near all the ppl who have liked his vids. No bs, straight to the point and very professional w/o the "salesman mentality." #Baller
I have 276,000 miles on my van. When I tried to start it, takes a couple tries to get it to start. And my wife says it feels like there’s no power when we accelerate... Thank you for sharing this video... this was very helpful. probably going to change it this weekend
Excellent video! A nice very short intro and he gets right to the point. My fuel pump failed yesterday in the 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan. Everything he listed 1-5 happened all the way to van dying while driving. Thank you sir for your knowledge and time.
I'm at 290,000 miles (owned car from brand new, so I know for a fact it's never been changed) and my car has loss of power recently when I get on it to get out into traffic fast or whatever. I see the RMPs going up but it's gotten really slow to deliver performance like my engine is going but I'm barely accelerating. I was thinking slipping pressure plate, transmission, severely worn rings, electric loss like a bad ground or failing coils or maybe a failing brain. After watching this video, I think I'm going to start here with filter and pump. When I asked a hundred thousand miles ago, they said it was in the gas tank, a pain to get to and just drive it until it dies and deal with it all at once. I think I can handle this job *without smoking while working lol* Thank you!
I guess like some, I had thought my car had a failing starter because sometimes it would take a little longer to start. It was as your video said, a bad fuel pump, had it replaced and starts on a dime now.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VERY MUCH APPRECIATED INFORMATION AS I AM A FEMALE AND AM TRYING TO EDUCATE MYSELF.. MUCH LOVE N BLESSINGS OF HEALTH N WELL BEING TO YOU ..
Thank you my friend for being here for us....I bought a 2003 grand marquis for $300 last week and it has set for over a year...I just got through with removing the old fuel pump a d now getting ready to install the new one but not sure just yet how tight the little bolts should be torqued...I'm hoping that since there was no pressure at the fuel rail, a new pump is all it needs...maybe I will be able to get it running tomorrow and next week get the insurance and tag
@@RobertDIY Thanks Robert! I was busy in my yard working on the car and thought instead of going and buying a manual, I could simply check the internet which has tons of earthly information...but no matter because I got it done and there are no leaks and my 200 dollar grand marquis runs like new...at least new to me
I like it when you list the symptoms of a bad fuel pump for people that are inexperienced. They can learn a lot before they break down and actually get the issue taken care of
My car hasn't died while driving before, but my car does hesitate to start and hesitate to accelerate, but I was told that it was because my car was just old. My car is failing to start right now, and this was extremely helpful to get me closer to fixing it. Thank you so much
I’ve watched a few videos and all concluded the same. My fuel pump is failing with 155k miles on my Sonata. It hesitates to accelerate randomly like you said, died on the highway going 75mph. Started right back & okay driving slow speeds less than 40 mph. Thanks!
That was very helpful. Very insightful and informative. My car, the engin had shut off and refused to cut ob again after I cranked it many of times. Thank you.
Very informative. Thank you sir. My sister and myself have found thru life its safer to fix our cars ourselves than trust mechanics who constantly take advantage because we're female. Much love and appreciation. I will come to your channel from now on first for your advice.
Thanks for this video. Recently my S80 got 4 of 5 those symptom till it refused to start at all. I was suspicios on fuel pump, this vid just made me sure that 99% it fuel pump.
These signs are so similar to what was happening to my car. Removed the injectors and cleaned them, one was clogged. Checked the fuel filter that I changed only 5000km ago, it was throwing dirty brown gasoline. Thought that the fuel pump was the culprit, changed it and cleaned the fuel tank. Lets see how she runs now. Thanks alot for this video.
Ahhh #3!!! My van gas been doing that for weeks, I was scared it was the transmission, and was in panic mode! It's now doing #1... Thank you so much for this video!!! Great info, and confirmation on what needs to be repaired.
Thanks for sharing! For now, the Volvo starts pretty good and has got full performance when accelerating agressively. My 146 875 miles 850 T-5 stalled 3 times without any "Lambda sond" signal ON. I will first check the "M 103" fuel pump relay, the fuse, and change it/them if so. Any way, the fuel pump is as old as the car and will pass away. Once again, thank you very much for all your good tips from France!
Great job.. 2005 Nissan Altima Se 3.5... 210k. 5 to 7 mins in, car goes into limp mode, after a few pumps of the gas it will eventually catch back up to normal. Replaced throttle body and mass air flow already. New spark plugs.
Depends of your car, just go on website like www.repairpal.com and type in your car make, model, and year and the type of service you need like Fuel Pump Replacement and it gives a good quote range of about what type of price you're looking at... good luck
As long as there are gas fueled cars out there, this will be timeless info. Straight talk, to the point, yet gives you a rounded concept of the fuel pump function and its issues. Thanks!
Thank you for this video. I now know what’s wrong with my truck. My truck would start and then it would idle and turn off. After that I stopped at a red light and my car completely gave up. Thought it was the battery so I changed it but had the same problem a few days ago.
@@RobertDIY i have been changing spark plugs and ignition coils trying to fix the issue.. problem still keep coming back.. I don't know how familiar you are with bmw fuel pumps . I have a 2011 bmw 328i ,my question is can fuel pump and fuel filter comes in one unit ? Or is it always two different units that goes at different locations ? Please help. Thanks
Thanks for the advice my man. Pretty sure our fuel pump on this (currently dead) PT cruiser was failing. You confirmed that. We have other issues with the car, but 99% certain the fuel pump is the main issue currently. Great no nonsense video here!
Would a faulty fuel pump effect the alternator, starter, battery and spark plugs of a vehicle? I have a 2009 Toyota Camry that stalled as I tried to get on the freeway.
Hi Robert, thanks for your video. I have an older 1994 960 that dies at full throttle or at high speeds, I thought the engine was overheating but the car felt like it was running out of gas. This video really helped me out because I have all 5 problems. I'm gonna order a new fuel pump and hopefully that fixes it!!
1st time seeing this video and it was very helpful. Now I definitely know the reason why my car will randomly die on me when I’m driving it to work. Plus it idles real hard then sometimes dies after I’ve come to a complete stop at a red light or stop sign. I’ve done figured out my main issues with my car just by watching this and a few other vids. Thank you good sir for making this 👍🏾👍🏾💯💯.
raynutty82 why and where did you cut a access hole? So you wouldn’t have to drop the tank? I cannot picture trying to change the pump without dropping the tank.
@@markkeeton9357 Pull the back seat. Wrap a string around studs that bolt the seat down. Measure over 6 inches toward passenger side from the string. Make the cuts. Works like a dream. RUclips has a few good videos on it. Hope this is helpful. Have a great day. REMEMBER: Surface cuts only so you don't cut into your frame. Will save 1000. by doing it yourself.
Something to add. If you decide on tuning your ecu whether remapping or a piggyback ecu tuner. Consider that your fuel pump was meant for stock settings. Mine just burnt out on a 2019 with 100,000km. I had early signs that I wasn't aware of until now. Thanks Robert from Canada. Commenting for algo's
I'm having this problem now on my truck I just ordered a Bosch fuel pump for my GMC. So far I replaced my MAF sensor my map sensor all eight spark plugs and I am still having these issues but I recently just found out what the problem was should have it here within the next two days that I'm going to get it put on. Thank you though for the helpful video
Quick update I was calling around getting quotes for repair and one mechanic asked if my oil was low? He said if it was to top it off and give a go. I’m happy to say it worked I was a little low on oil and after I topped it off so far no more problems
Robert DIY I didn’t check the oil cause I had it changed about 2 months ago. Now I have to figure out where I’m burning oil cause it’s not leaving spots on my driveway.
You should check oil no less than monthly. If you are burning oil, weekly until you figure out how much you are using. Measure oil loss by miles not time/days.
Robert DIY yeah I didn’t know I was burning oil I’ve never had any problems with the car. Thanks for the tips though. The whole thing just caught me off guard.
This was a lot of help thank you! My car left me stranded on the freeway. I pulled up the codes but they were all unhelpful (in hindsight the combination of codes pointed me to the fuel pump).
Thank you so much what a relief after listening this ama subscribe right away My golf mk5 got the same symptoms and it won’t stop wining at fuel tank and finally the car won’t start
I wish I would have seen this video before I left Salem Oregon headed east to Ohio my fuel pump went out and a 100 mi stretche no services anywhere between bend and Berns Oregon Rt.20 . now I'm sitting in berns OREGON and waiting for a ride back home ,my car will not run. thank you for this video I just wish I would have sent it sooner 👍
I never had any warnings, just wouldn't start one day then dearest son puts a second hand one in and two days later the car won't start again! I'm watching these so I can do it again myself
Man, this is one of the most helpful videos on fuel pumps I could find. Nailed at least 3 of my symptoms on the head!!! Thanks for taking the time to post this video.
You are welcome.
All 5 for me
Hi man I have a problem with a 99 corolla stalls and while driving no power and hesitates but when it starts and is just sitting in idle it’s just fine but stalls When put it in gear

1. A lot of miles on the vehicle
2. Car take longer to start
3. Lacks performance
4. Car fails to start
5. Car dies while driving
That's about it.
I'm going through this as we speak on a 98 Dodge Neon with a $165,000 miles on it
Number one, Sounds very much like the symptoms of my motorcycle. When hot and low fuel it stutters and dies, wait for a while and it restarts.
Simon Skinner but normally the motorcycle is gravity feed to the carby though unless its EFI
Risker Yi my motorcycle has fuel injectors and the fuel pump inside the fuel tank. It is a BMW
Got to say, this guy was more helpful than anyone else on youtube...

450-$100 online for the pump, jack and 2 stands, some tools and a buddy to help lower and lift the gas tank.

Would a faulty fuel pump effect the alternator, starter, battery and spark plugs of a vehicle? I have a 2009 Toyota Camry that stalled as I tried to get on the freeway.
No but if the car runs out of gas, none of those other things work.
Still have gas but I had to replace the starter, alternator, and battery and am lost on what else the issue could be.
rvasquez400
Could be your crank position sensor
Hi Robert, thanks for your video. I have an older 1994 960 that dies at full throttle or at high speeds, I thought the engine was overheating but the car felt like it was running out of gas.

Kinda scary, you make me wanna drive around with a spear fuel pump xD
LOL, just replace it every 200,000 miles.
This is the best answers I've gotten. Being in the northeast, have you thought about opening up a car wash that only washes the undercarriage?
no, I live in Albuquerque NM.

1st time seeing this video and it was very helpful. Now I definitely know the reason why my car will randomly die on me when I’m driving it to work. Plus it idles real hard then sometimes dies after I’ve come to a complete stop at a red light or stop sign. I’ve done figured out my main issues with my car just by watching this and a few other vids. Thank you good sir for making this 👍🏾👍🏾💯💯.
you are welcome.
Hi what was the probl did you replace fuelmp
U The man thanks a lot Same symptoms 💯
Thanks for watching
I cut an access hole in my Tahoe and had it changed out in 2 hours! Always get your fuel pump fixed when you start noticing! You will be stranded!!!!
Thanks for sharing.
Robert DIY It definitely works! Thanks for the video!!!

why and where did you cut a access hole? So you wouldn’t have to drop the tank?
I cannot picture trying to change the pump without dropping the tank.
@@markkeeton9357 Pull the back seat. Wrap a string around studs that bolt the seat down. Measure over 6 inches toward passenger side from the string. Make the cuts. Works like a dream. RUclips has a few good videos on it.
Hope this is helpful. Have a great day. REMEMBER: Surface cuts only so you don't cut into your frame. Will save 1000. by doing it yourself.
Thank you bro this was really helpful, especially the stuttering/hesitating bit. Well done.
You are welcome.
Something to add. If you decide on tuning your ecu whether remapping or a piggyback ecu tuner. Consider that your fuel pump was meant for stock settings. Mine just burnt out on a 2019 with 100,000km. I had early signs that I wasn't aware of until now. Thanks Robert from Canada. Commenting for algo's
Thanks for watching
Thank you this is one of the most helpful videos on fuel pumps I could find too
Thanks for watching
I'm having this problem now on my truck I just ordered a Bosch fuel pump for my GMC. So far I replaced my MAF sensor my map sensor all eight spark plugs and I am still having these issues but I recently just found out what the problem was should have it here within the next two days that I'm going to get it put on. Thank you though for the helpful video
you are welcome.
Quick update I was calling around getting quotes for repair and one mechanic asked if my oil was low? He said if it was to top it off and give a go. I’m happy to say it worked I was a little low on oil and after I topped it off so far no more problems
You drive around without checking the oil?

Robert DIY I didn’t check the oil cause I had it changed about 2 months ago. Now I have to figure out where I’m burning oil cause it’s not leaving spots on my driveway.
You should check oil no less than monthly. If you are burning oil, weekly until you figure out how much you are using. Measure oil loss by miles not time/days.
Robert DIY yeah I didn’t know I was burning oil I’ve never had any problems with the car. Thanks for the tips though. The whole thing just caught me off guard.
Thanks. I appreciate how you get to the point and give only the relevant information.
you are welcome.
This was a lot of help thank you! My car left me stranded on the freeway. I pulled up the codes but they were all unhelpful (in hindsight the combination of codes pointed me to the fuel pump).
Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching.
