The fuel pump is expected to wear out over time of use, so you'll need to replace it eventually. Failure to replace the fuel pump has many negative effects that affect the performance of your vehicle as a whole. As a result, you must change the fuel pump as soon as it breaks or even before it does.

If someone knocks on your door and you don’t know who it is..check the fuel pump

[relaxingkaty]

If your tires are flat make sure to check you fuel pump

Fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, crankshaft sensor, or camshaft sensor, maybe a map sensor. If it's the alternator take the pos post off and if it stays running.the alternator is putting out. That's what she said. A skip might be plug wires or a coil pack. Open the hood in the dark and see if you see a spark jump anywhere. Best thing to do is go by a auto parts store and let them get a code reading. That's a good way to not get in deep with buying parts you don't need. Just my opinion. 👍

Thanks for making these video its definitely my fuel pump 😢

[ntamichael]

You know I don't really feel fuel pump can cause overheating in cars, bcos fuel pump is not part of the cooling system, how then can fuel pump causes overheating from your explanation?

[AsmitaXpradhan]

My car engine takes time to start or I will have to rotate more to start. But when it starts and runs for few min or KM it becomes normal for 1-2 hours and then if I park for more than 3-4 hours it takes effort to get start again.
I changed spark plug and changed air system as well. But problem is same.
What is wrong with my car engine? Is it fuel pressure problem?

Mine has been sputtering when i hit gas, ,and then i here a ticking sound from the back, ,alomost like a bad ground hitting on and off at times .
Could this be the fulepump?

[earlejeff]

Its 2024, I couldn't agree with this video on the overhearing part but today Im here to tell you all that indeed its possible

[lawjye]

This is so vague. There are specific signs to each of these symptoms. Any of this can mean any of anything.

I currently have a bad fuel pump which prime when it wants to but has good fuel pressure but weak flow...it causes hard starting, very bad idling, engine shaking n stalling. So remember even if a fuel pump shows good fuel pressure on a fuel pressure gauge...that doesnt always mean that it's working as it should. and yes it causes the engine to overheat because it's running too lean...poor fuel supply

Question can it be possible for your fuel pump to be so shot out/broken that you can’t hear it engaging and not turn the car over. Also sometimes when I’m at red lights it would jolt

[madrob]

My car is stalling when I need go round corners slowly and need to change to 1st or 2nd. At the same time ive started hearing a whining noise from the back of the car which I have never heard before. Could it be that my pump is on the way out and that its not getting enough fuel to the engine to keep the revs up? I thought it was because of the cold weather but it happens even when the engine is warm.

Can it cause a jeep to die suddenly, engine, lights, everything??

[patrickjohnson]

Old honda sputters to a start. At cold start only than drives fine. I have replace fuel pump and use seafoam in the fuel tank, still sputters. Mechanic said its just an old honda and thats what they

Any advice, thanks!

like a liquid cooling unit, the coil can still be active and the vacuum driver be null causing a circuit transfer of energy that no longer goes to such components and backs up. like the filament of a lightbulb. due to environment, it has constant contact with fluid molecules allowing for a thermic transaction preserving the coil by limiting it's critical mass so to speak. doesn't burn up immediately. since petrol in a liquid state is not flammable in such a sense it would warrant assumptions of fires before gas could be in any case, a coolant. inarguable. and because reality is confusing, atoms take care of each other, the cold atomic particles shake hands with the hotter neighbors and splits the thermic load. like liquid water below ice dances through the ice itself trading places with solid ice water molecules as they go along. provable by way of slowing lowering your finger into a cup of water, the water always touches you first. things are not always as they appear.

If your Dome light stops lighting when you open the door or if you can't find your car keys. Check the fuel pump.
