Hi could you tell me were the fuel pump is located in the 1.4 2015 petrol. As the wife has placed diesel in and it needs the tank emptied and then on. Even if you could give me a good idea how to get the fuel out please. I would really appreciate your help. Thank you in advance. Dave

If you can’t see it or a hatch for it under the rear seats then the fuel tank will need to be dropped. If there is a hatch under the seat then just pop out the pump and suck it out. I use an old school external fuel pump to do this. Andy👨🏼‍🔧

@@AMSVauxhall many thanks. I have searched under the rear seat/ boot and no pump hole / rubber cover there. So I assume you state it must be the case in dropping the tank to get to it. I did notice on the rear right off the tank there is a large hose Piper with a screw clamp on. Them next to that there are two fuel pipes going towards the front. I take these are the supply and return pipes. But the lager one I believe it looks like the filler pipe but can be undone from the tank. So I was going to undo this and hopefully be able to siphon the tank of the fuel as it is full with diesel and not petrol that is supposed to be there. In respect to the engine side. Would would you clean out ? ie I have blown out and placed new plugs in. NGK. Then I was thinking off cleaning the fuel pressure rail out as well. Would there be anything ales apart from the fuel filter that’s in the tank on this one. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you again in advance. 👍 Dave from the Uk 🇬🇧

@@sharp007 ye could certainly try and remove the filler pipe and syphon that way but there is usually a one way valve / flap in the tank to prevent fuel being sucked out (fuel thieves) worth a try though. There should be a valve on the fuel rail you can release the fuel pressure and I would disconnect the fuel pipes and blow them out with an air line. Once you get the tank and lines cleaned out and fresh fuel in, I would add a fuel cleaner / additive like Forte just to help. Andy👨🏼‍🔧

@@AMSVauxhall cheers Andy. I will do that. I did funny enough buy some forte to clean the system out today. Before I contacted you. Well I appreciate all your help mate. It’s alway well worth reaching out to confirm things as you never know if it could cause a problem before I touched it. I will let you know. Not looking forward to 56 litres off fuel ⛽️ pouring out but I have a 12v 300 watt pump so that should do it. And I will blow the pipes out before filling and kickoff ! Thank you again. 👍 you're a Dimond.

@@sharp007 good luck buddy!

If you use iridium spark plugs, the gap must not be changed. It can ruin the plug.

[@AMSVauxhall]

These aren’t iridium spark plugs and there is no need to use iridium on these engines

Hi, do I need to disconnect the battery to fit a new coil pack on a Mokka?
