    After I installed mine, it leaked like crazy. Fuel spraying everywhere. I have the correct part from GM as well. It’s a 2003 yukon xl. 5.3. Even gave dealer the last 8 on vin. Mine didn’t have a screen though.

    I watched the first video of your voltage bouncing around. I got a 2001 Chevy Suburban 5.3 that is doing the same thing. I already replaced the alternator and its still doing it.
    In the first video you said you replaced this and it fixed that problem?

    I swapped mine out today, even after pulling the fuel pump relay and letting the truck die I got soaked from the amount of pressure behind the regulator when I removed it 😬 what would cause the excess pressure after letting the truck literally run out of fuel?

    I have a question regarding thios because I have the 2004 4.8 Liter Chevy Tahoe. I am getting the fuel smell with the vehicle running. My issue is the 20094 and later don't have a regulator by the fuel rail.
    I thought it was my vehicle so I checked my Haynes manual and it said with 2004 and later to drop the fuel tank. Is there a regulator in the fuel tank or do I measure the pressure at the rail on the Schrader valve on the passenger side and if jumpy or high or low do I replace the furl pump?
    Do I need to check the injectors, check electrical for the injectors or what's the procedure?
    I'd like to get this fixed as I'm worried that unburned fuel could be dumping into the engine and possibly be causing further engine damage or am I fine in that area?
    ANy help would be greatly appreciated as we have snow coming and this is our 4wd dad taxi for the kids and wife in snowy weather. Thanks!

    • @InDepthSonar
      @InDepthSonar  8 лет назад +2

      I'd try and figure out where the fuel smell is coming from first. Check all your fuel lines for leaks and maybe check some vacuum lines as well for cracks or if they are wet. If you can't figure out where the smell is coming from you need to take it to a mechanic because a fuel leak is serious

    • @dtnel
      @dtnel 8 лет назад +1

      Got it figured to where I smell near the left rear wheel well and I hear a light buzz sound coming from fuel tank area. I have a fuel pressure tester so I'm going to see if the pressure is leaking down after I shut the vehicle off. If it is being it's a returnless fuel system then I've been told a faulty check ball could be the culprit. I tend to think there may be a cracked line or cracked tank also. It's the plastic tank. To bad they don't have a built in pressure test port where you could hook right up and pressurize the fuel tank. We'll see what the pressure check brings this afternoon. I'll clear half the garage out so I can get it out of the ice/snow and into a heated garage. I'll login to my alldata account as well and see what that can do for me.

      Nope. Mine turned out to finally be knock sensors. The misfire I was experiencing actually was a ghost-misfire. Meaning it didn’t exist, and it was reproducible at 3,000rpm and higher held steady in park sitting in the driveway.

    Hmm...trying to find why a cold start on a 2000 Silverado 4.8l Vortec is just fine, but when warm, requires extended crank. It will start, but only after about 8 seconds of crank and pre-prime. Any relation to this fix? Thanks much

      @@vincentbanda2567 Try locating your air hose supply to the fuel regulator. Cold start should be good, but hot starts crank for ever. If you pull that line off (before a cold start) There should be NO gas in the line. It should be dry, if it is wet after driving, replace your fuel regulator. My internet search says this is a common problem, solved for $50 and you can do it. I can send you a video if you want. Good luck, mate!
