Working on this VY commodore trying to get it back on the road If you have any jobs that i might be able to help you out with let me know 👍

[@ChopperReidTv]

Good to see more videos and in depth fixes for the commodore issues we all face at some point, especially without having to scroll through forums. I had the same problem years ago on my old VY also when i was a young apprentice, i sent myself crazy but finally after doing the thing i should have done in the first place i decided to crossreference part numbers to find it was an vy L67 pump, but using my work scan tool though i easily calibrated the fuel gauge in a few clicks of a button. It really shows that persistence pays off. Awesome videos mate, definitely earns a subscribe! 👍👍👍

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

Thanks mate 👍 Yeah got a heap of jobs on the VY wagon ive got sitting there haha just need time and money but ill get there Take it easy mate Byron 👍

[@davidmorrison440]

Thanks heaps mate. I reckon you have saved me a heap of time working this out. It's the same as ABS modules. Different series, different part numbers. Grrrrrr

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

[@joannebateup8344]

thanks for your video, will be trying this on the weekend on my VN

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

The good old VN I use to have a VN Calais i loved that thing Good luck with the pump mate 👍

[@hammer8809]

Byron you are a dead set legend, mums car has the same drama. Garage said it would have to be recalibrated by GM but it looks like maybe the wrong one has been fitted because GM said no calibration in necessary. The garage fitted the gauge and low fuel alarm kept coming on with half a tank. The second one works in reverse so a little stumped. Maybe first one was correct but needed the battery disconnect to reset everything but this wasn't done. I would appreciate your take if you could please. Also is it much drama to drop the tank, 2004 VY wagon. Cheers 🍻. P.S. I just found the tank drop video you did before this one 👌.

Oh awesome bro Wagons is the same mate 👍

[@johndee68]

Hi, was wondering if you might still have one of the old fuel pumps laying around. If so. Could you show the blown apart view of the pressure release valve that's under the top of the unit, which is on the outlet to the carbon canister?

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

Hey mate ill have a look tomorrow but i have a feeling its been thrown out

[@Andrew-jh5uv]
