Replacing The Fuel Pump Corolla

[@carlosvalentin856]

YOU MADE IT MUCH CLEARER than the other videos. that little piece that goes around the O-ring is very important way on how to put it. That was the hardest part for me I did not know how to position that piece next to the O-ring. Thanks again good Job,👍👍

[@camilosandovalvargas7231]

Thank you very much. Especially for the details, because details are very important. Greetings from Santiago de Chile.

Unreal, this was the best video for doing this job! Very grateful for all the explanations and precautions, liked and subbed! ✌🏼

[@felicialeblanc2815]

By far the best video I could find.. Thank you!

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Felicia Leblanc I appreciate your feedback.

I just ordered a strainer, pump, filter and gasket. I think I will order a pressure sensor too, but they get very expensive; I'm not sure I should trust the 16 to 20 dollar ones even though they say meet OEM. I may also get a fuel level sending unit since my car is having issues with the fuel level accuracy. (The car didn't stop the gas pump when it was full and it overflowed when I filled up the other day). For the sending unit I'm looking at almost 80 bucks and the pressure sensors can be 80 or 90 bucks too. Don't think I'll go for the original part, but feel somewhat insecure with a really cheap replacement. May risk it though since it's starting to get pricey with just the parts I bought. Thanks for going over the little details that some people would forget/not think about.

[@yingcluk]

Nice video, and I would replace the rubber seal on the top of pump assembly housing, that big round seal on top

[@VictorGonzalez-gt9tf]

Good video so easy and very well explained thanks.

[@hellaacapella]

Love how easy this is in a Corolla!

[@jaycris1980]

You are the man! Thank you sir!

thank you very much! Your video is excellent, congratulations 👏👏👏👏👏

[@melvinmccoy9830]

Good job. And good explanation.

[@Johnslist]

Impressively thorough. What I haven't found is how often to change this filter or sock? Previous models with the can suggest 50k, but this one doesn't seem serviceable unless required (for pump). I've got 165k miles on my car and am wondering.

[@YourCarGuyDR]

girohead unless you are having issues don’t worry about it.

[@glenf9955]

Great video and more detailed than most. Thank you. One question pls. I cannot for the life of me get the fuel line seated so I can put the retainer clip on. Makes no sense why it will not seat again.

[@YourCarGuyDR]

G Fossati there is an o-ring inside the fuel line. Make sure it isn’t out of place. Then you can add just a little bit of oil to the o-ring and it should go together.

[@MrBotabox]

Simply simple 💯

[@ggoblue]

i cannot find that fuel filter. the large black half-round filter. would you have a parts number? meantime, i used this excellent video to swap out an entire assembly from a you-pick junkyard. so that worked for me, but now i have my old assembly that i can rebuild at my leisure. just can't find that one filter. [i have that sock/screen] anyway thanks. :D edit...found it...part number is 23300-0D010

[@marthab4172]

I found it. Thank you!

[@chocolate_squiggle]

Great video. My 2002 is actually the next generation (I think first sold in US as 2003 model) but still very helpful to get the overall idea and see how the parts work together. I AM curious how you uploaded a video about a 2002 vehicle in 2018 :-) Is the model year a mistake perhaps?

where did you buy this kit and what is the part no. ...............thanks 2004 corolla S

[@vq35ftw]

What were the symptoms that made you suspect the fuel pump assembly?

[@YourCarGuyDR]

The vehicle was slow to start when warm, was setting a code for running lean and slightly low on power. I did a fuel pressure test and found that the initial fuel pressure was in range but it dropped very quickly to below the specified range.

[@flhenny7093]

I’m thinking of buying my first car and it’s a 1997 Toyota Corolla with 120,000 miles on it and everything is fine but I need to replace the fuel pump is it worth getting it and how much would it cost to replace??

[@YourCarGuyDR]

They are great cars and you can replace the pump yourself. It is ver simple and should be less than $100.00

[@callmebackfriday2]

I have a 2009 Corolla LE with 180,000 miles and suddenly it has Check Engine Light (CEL) come with code of P0001 which is Volume Fuel Regulator. The Regulator is inside the fuel pump; however, the car run fine and no issue except the CEL. Is it really Volume Fuel Pressure Regulator or may be just wires or ECM issues. There is no sign of fuel issue except the CEL turn on and off and now it is always on. Thanks for the video.

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Most likely it is a connection issue with the sensor. Inspect all the wiring and connections at the fuel rail. I would pull the connectors out and look for loose pins or sockets. Or any sign of wire rub or fraying.

[@callmebackfriday2]

@@YourCarGuyDR Thanks for the information.

[@southtexasheat]

Thanks for the video. One question, the current Connector does not fit the new fuel pump. Can I just simply cut and butt connect new pigtail connector shipped with new pump?

[@YourCarGuyDR]

southtexasheat yes you can do that

[@yahman2]

southtexasheat did it work when you cut and pig tailed the wires

[@yahman2]

Your Car Guy DR where did you buy the fuel pump Your Car Guy DR. do you have a part number to the fuel pump or a link on the internet where it can be purchased

[@ldenorio]

thanks for the video, what lube did you use for the o-rings?

[@YourCarGuyDR]

ldenorio just a little bit of oil.

[@danieltrellez6612]

How did u get the screws off mine won’t come off

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Sometimes it helps to put your screwdriver on the screw then tap the back of the screwdriver with a hammer to help break the screws loose.

[@Greenrosettas]

What lube you using for the o rings?

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Just a drop of oil will work great or wd40.

[@papouchemyson4618]

Hello there, great video I understood it everything you did, thanks. But I have one question. As far as taking out the fuse to release pressure. Which one is the right fuse, and once You're finished do you just put the fuse back turn on the car and the pressure will apply

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Paul Myson depending on your car model and year the fuse will be labeled fuel pump or fuel system. Take the fuse out and try to start the vehicle. This causes the pump to not run and uses up the fuel psi that is in the line. Then after replacing the pump simply reinstall the fuse.

[@papouchemyson4618]

got it thanks

[@yingcluk]

@Papouche Myson you can also try to remove the fuel pump relay, kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHTTk355nLBqqKs

[@MrStealthpl]

Hey I got a quick question maybe you can help me or someone on here. I have a 2006 Toyota Corolla that has problems starting up especially in the cold. I would say 70% of the time it cranks and starts up normally the other 30% I have to crank it a lot longer and the car sounds like it's not going to start (almost sounds like it going to die on me) but then it starts up after about a good 3-4 seconds of cranking it. I believe this is my feul pump but I'm not sure. Possible starter as well? Do you have any suggestions what it could be?

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Matt Slaczka most likely your fuel pump.

[@yingcluk]

It's similar to me, but I suspect it's fuel leak because that only happens when the car sits more than a day or 2 without being used.

[@mariselagutierrez8967]

Where is the fuel pump fuse located in a 1998 Toyota Corolla?

[@yingcluk]

For US model, under the side vent of driver side, there's a small pull out to put some stuff, pull that out you should see a fuse box. Or it could be @ the largest fuse box in the engine compartment

[@gregpeters6195]

Mr Car Guy, Excellent video. I was wondering if you could tell me what the problem with the car was. I'm having an issue that I suspect is a fuel delivery issue. Car randomly dies but will restart immediately. Codes are random cylinder misfires. Have checked all electrical.

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Greg Peters there are a couple of things that could cause your issue. Fuel supply could be one. You also may have a vacuum leak after the mass air sensor. Some faulty sensors can also cause an issue. Does it die at idle or while driving?

[@gregpeters6195]

@@YourCarGuyDR The car does not die at idle. Suspect bad fuel was added a couple months ago when loaned to a friend. I added quality fuel and used car on occasion afterward (spare car) no problems. Daughter came to town a drove daily, started again. I was able to duplicate twice. While driving tried to accelerate hard, had no throttle response. Have checked for vac leaks

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Greg Peters if you did get some bad fuel you could have plugged the filter on the fuel pump. Low fuel psi can cause an intermittent shutdown and the random misfire codes. I would do a fuel pressure test and see what is going on.

[@gregpeters6195]

@@YourCarGuyDR Thanks buddy, you're the second to confirm my thoughts. I'm already at the pump so I'll do the rebuild. Thank you again for your video and help. You rock

[@wintersolstice53]

What type of screw driver do I use to remove the cover? My Phillips keeps slipping and I"m on the verge of stripping the screws.

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Noreen Kenney this can be challenging as not all screwdrivers are created equal. Higher quality screwdrivers with a tight fit work best. One thing you can do to help get the screws loose is put your screwdriver in the screw then give it a tap straight down with a hammer. This will help break the screw loose.

[@wintersolstice53]

So.... A guy came by to help me remove those stubborn screws. He used MY 8mm socket + ratchet to take them out. Now I gotta get back to the eye doc to have my eyes checked. :-)@@YourCarGuyDR

[@claybowling466]

Try a 8mm socket on those screws. Good luck.

[@rickv8612]

I replaced my fuel pump on a 2006 Toyota corolla type S. Found out the pump wasn't the problem. The problem is the pump is not turning on/getting power. I checked relays and fuses and there good. Does anyone got suggestions on what could be wrong? PLEASE HELP

[@YourCarGuyDR]

The pump should come on at initial key on for a second or two for priming. It will also come on during cranking. If the computer doesn’t sense engine cranking it will not turn the pump on. Check your cam and crank position sensors. One way to eliminate ate this as an issue is if you can see rpm’s on your tachometer when cranking or use a scanner to see if it shows rpm’s while cranking.

[@musiqsoulstar06]

Is the fuel filter part of the fuel pump?

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Tristan Broussard the fuel pump assembly contains the fuel filter. In this case you can purchase a new filter and replace it in the pump assembly. The entire assembly is fairly expensive but as long as your housing is in good shape the pump, filter, pressure regulator are all replaceable for a lot less money.

[@carlosalvarenga7477]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👌👌

[@marcocasavecchia3637]

Please, OEM number of fuel pressure regulator 🙏

[@wintersolstice53]

Any help? I replaced the fuel pump and all the goodies and a blown EFI fuse. It started and ran for a week. Then the car would NOT start again! Why the heck does my EFI fuse keep blowing? FYI I am not a mechanic. :)

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Noreen Kenney you need to check all of your ground wires. A loose connection will cause resistance which will draw more amps and blow the fuse. Make sure all your connections are clean and secure. Also feel for any hot spots in the wiring.

[@wintersolstice53]

I understand all the basics in current flow (I think) I know there may well be a loose ground somewhere. The problem is I don't have any idea how or wheee to look for it. @@YourCarGuyDR

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Noreen Kenney start with the battery connections then trace the ground wires at the engine block and battery to body. Finally check the wires at the fuel pump and trace them back. It can be difficult to find this type of problem even for a good mechanic. But if you take your time you should be able to find it.

Corolla 15s what help do you need?

[@DougHinVA]

NO sparks at all ! it is fresh raw gasoline in the tank? Maybe take the negative battery cable off before you start and wrap it in a paper towel or dry rag to ensure no sparks at all!

[@YourCarGuyDR]

You are correct that removing the negative battery cable prior to beginning the repair and making sure it cannot contact the negative battery post is important. While a spark can cause ignition of the fuel vapor it is not likely unless certain conditions are met. Either way taking the proper precautions should always be done.

If a new fuel cost $1000 you got ripped off. I can get one brand new for $360

[@YourCarGuyDR]

William Reid that’s great to hear. When I filmed this and searched for a new complete assembly the only ones I could find were in the $1000.00 range. Which was surprising because the various parts could’ve be sourced for a such a reasonable price.
