fuel

I just put 21gallons in the tank, and the fuel gage was reading just above E. Now it is reading just below 1/4 tank. It should be reading F. Any advice? Other questions: 1.My user's manual (pages 176-177) says there is a fuse panel just under the instrument cluster to the left (driver)...

Hello all! So I have a 1993 Ford Explorer XLT, and I just replaced the fuel injectors. They were all gummed up and some of the nozzles were cracked. After getting them to line up (which was a pain) and seat into the manifold, I replaced the fuel plenum gasket, and upper intake manifold gasket...

Needing to run a fuel pressure test as I suspect my fuel pump is going out. I'm struggling to find the valve however. what is the best way to access it and where is it roughly located? I've followed the fuel lines up but cant really see the fuel rail / injectors with everything on But I don't...

Do you think that a dirty but not clogged fuel filter can effect gas mileage? Still chasing that fuel mileage loss. I thought maybe it was the fuel so I fueled at a different station so will have to wait and see on that part. I did rent a 1,000lb lawn aeration machine and a heavy duty trailer...

2004 Eddie Bauer Explorer. So typical crank no start, lead to the usual tests, which lead to not hearing the fuel pump come on with ignition. Removed connector to fuel rail to confirm no gas coming through as well... No gas being pumped through. So seemed obvious.... Fuel Pump failure...

Safe to assume the side with the writing goes up on the felpro gaskets? 99 pushrod.

So I've got a 97 5.0 with constant negative long term fuel trims. I also only get 7-9mpg(city only) with 3.73 and 32s. It should be much better than that... Bank 1 likes to stay around -15 to -20 and bank 2 around -5 in park/idle. Plus or minus some for AC on/off or in drive. While driving they...

Hey everyone. I was hoping to get some diagnostic help with my 1993 xlt 4x4 5 speed manual. Ive been having issues for a while now with what I feel is fuel. Ive replaced the Fuel pump (first a junk yard find and then a brand new delphi). The fuel filter has been replaced. The throttle...

Currently trying to hunt down an issue with our 2017 exployer with the 3.5 ecoboost. After driving for a while if you let it idle it will stall. I hooked up forscan and low pressure and desired low pressure stay consistent. However when the vehicle began to stall the high pressure started to...

I have a 2019 ford explorer base model, it’s like it’s getting over loaded with fuel and won’t start. If I pop the fuel rail loose at the quick connect and let pressure off, it fires right up, any thoughts suggestions.

I'm in the process of changing the fuel pump in my 2002 Sport Trac with a build date of Aug 1, 2002. Got the tank off and drained only to find the pump assembly I bought has 4 pins in the electrical plug, and my old (original) has 5. Of course, there's no way to know exactly what you have until...

I've got a 2008 Explorer Sprort Trac Adrenalin (4.6L) that has a frustratingly intermittent fuel issue, the engine has 165K . Once every tank or so, I'll be driving along and the truck will completely lose all power. I pull off to the side of the road and while the engine is still running, it...

Hello, First post here so if I leave any details out please ask. I have a 97 AWD Explorer with the 4.0 OHV Engine, and I've been struggling to figure out what's wrong with it. It randomly shuts off while the RPM's are low. It will do it when slowly approaching a stop light, or while just...

2008 Ford Explorer V8 Drove fine yesterday afternoon. Went out last night and the truck started but was running real rough and when I gave it gas it tried to die. Turned off ignition and tried again same result. 3rd time it kind of got a little better idle so I decided to let it sit awhile. Came...

I recently replaced the Fuel Pump in a 2006 Ford Explorer XLT 4.0. It ran briefly and then the fuel pump stopped coming on when I turn on the key - no sound / no start. I replaced the Fuel Pump Driver Module and that seemed to do it for a day then once again a no start - could not get the...

I have replaced the Throttle Body, fuel rail sensor, fuel pump regulator, MAF sensor, fuel filter, fuel pump relay in the fuse box, and the air filter. The engine cranks but will not start cold unless I use starting fluid. Once it starts it runs great, smooth, lots of power and no issues and I...

I was doing my injectors and one of them came out and I noticed the o ring and the tiny plastic piece went into the engine. So I already knew this was done for at that point but I stuck this long skinny pencil down there to see if I could feel it and I didn’t. Pulled the pencil out and placed it...

When I tell you that all 8 of my injectors are seized inside of my engine I’m not lying. I’ve gotten 3 out but they’ve taken about 30-45 mins each of careful prying and penetration fluid. I stopped at 3 because the next one I tried working on really did not want to budge and I thought I’d come...

Unfortunately it’s fuel pump time. I pretty much know how to do fuel pumps but I’ve never done it on my own truck. Anything I should look out for in particular? I know that lock ring thing on top of the pump assembly is most definitely going to be rusted beyond belief is there anything I can do...

2009 Honda Civic LX 1.8L (R18A1). 294,000+ miles I've noticed while scrolling through torque pro that my Short and long term fuel trims are the same and excessive at -71.88%. it throws a P0420 code and sometimes a P0302. I have recently replaced plugs and the P0302 hasn't come back. Odd issue...

99 Eddie Bauer with 4.0 SOHC - 220xxx miles. For about a week now, it acts like its not getting fuel. It will start & run in the morning, but as soon as it gets hot, it dies. And won't start up again until it cools off. It also likes to die at idle, and sputter and backfire. When it does run, it...

Keep getting a p0191 code "Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Range/Performance" I've replaced the sensor and fuel filter. Fuel trims are where they're supposed to be. 02 sensors are oscillating. I checked as much of the wiring and harnesses as I could access easily and that's all good. I'm...

Car struggling to start and when Engine runs it seems fine with little vibration at 25 psi of fuel Rail Pressure. If I shutoff the engine, it drops immediately to 8-11 psi and gradually rises to 42 psi. I try to start the engine again FRP drops and engine stalls it won’t start until I wait for...

So this is more of a "How I did it" rather than a How-to, but I decided to fully document my repair as I found no info on this before. I don't know how helpful this will be for 91-92 owners, but I'm guessing the only real difference in the systems is that the vapor canister is in a slightly...

How do I remove the fuel rail? Currently replacing the intake manifold and am puzzled by how to remove it on both sides.

I replaced my fuel filter today so I used the method were you pull the relay to the pump while it’s running to remove pressure from the lines. That definitely worked as I changed the filter and the lines were depressurized. But now my pump isn’t turning on, I don’t hear the usual whirl sound and...

Hello, I recently purchased a 2016 explorer sport with the 3.5L twin turbo and my fuel gauge seems to go up to full when i go into higher elevation and when driving it went from 150 miles to empty to 0 damn near instantly. Upon putting in gas I did infact have 2 gallons of fuel left in the...

Hi guys! I need help. My ground wire is bad on my fuel pump. Im trying to figure out where the ground wire leads to on the fpdm. I know the location of the fpdm i dont know where the ground leads and i cant find anything on it. Thank you in advance!

Hello, I'm struggling to find any write ups on how to replace a cracked fuel injector I have on my 2008 Explorer 4.6L. Everything I find is for the 4.0L. Can anyone lead me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

My 2006 eb 4.6l won't take any gas and I'm assuming it's cause of that vent hose that runs up to the top of the filler neck. Ive read on a few forums here that ford made a redesigned vent hose, I'm just wondering where would I find that. Or if it would just be better to take it to a mechanic and...

got this 4.0 1999 explorer it turns over way too much before it cranks . I have cleaned the mas sensor , cleaned the whole intake system with sea foam , I have replaced a bad iac valve with a new one . There are no vacuumed leaks . I bought it not long ago and noticed the temp guage wasn’t going...

The truck ran fine then one day just quit, wouldn’t start again. I have shot starter fluid into the air intake, it runs for a few revs. I have replaced the fuel pump, filter. Any ideas, next steps?

I am stumped. I have an 05 explorer xlt, 4.0 SOHC V6 with 191K miles. With about 8K in repairs In the past 6 months I have replaced, the front wheel hub assemblies, rear tie rods, upper and lower ball joints, TRANSMISSION, replaced the fuel filter, oil change/air filter, had the throttle body...

Hi all, I'm new here and have been having major issues with my 2013 explorer limited, 3.5 awd. Bought it 2014 with 52k ran great. At 60k I had the great idea to put in E85(yes it is flex fuel) I was almost empty when I did. First tank, CEL came on was told it was normal from dealership...

This is on a 2003 Explorer XLT AWD 4.0L Whenever refueling the tank when near to empty (under 1/4 tank), the gauge will sit right where it was, even if filling the tank. Then about 5-10 minutes into driving, it will drop to empty and appear as if the gauge isn't working at all, the check gauge...

hey guys so i just picked up a 1998 ford explorer sport (2 door v6) 88k miles magically the CEL came on after 250 miles of driving (i know i should have checked to see if it was reset) codes were P0171 and P0174. -I ran some injector cleaner thru and dry gas as well, reset and light came back...

I’m going to attempt to change the fuel filter on my 2000 OHV and was wondering how to depressurize the fuel line. I’ve read that unplugging the inertia switch and then cranking the engine until the fuel runs out, is the best way. I’ve also read that removing the fuel pump fuse and then cranking...

Hi Guys... Wife was driving the 2001 Sport Trac and it started to lose power, then stopped running. I checked it out and when I try and start it, it produces a rythmic clicking sound. Checked the battery and terminals and it appears the car is getting sufficient power... never did this before...

My 99 explorer 5.0 has CEL P0102 low voltage MAF sensor. I have replaced the sensor, the connector, throttle body sensor, IAC valve, gaskets and checked for vacumm leak although there seems to be a leak i can't find after the MAF sensor. What else can be causing this code? I can't get it smogged...

I decided to jump into replacing the fuel pump on my friend's dad's 2002 Explorer b/c he is tight on cash. It's turned into a bear of a job. My first problem is getting the two fuel lines going into fuel filter off. They do not use the quick disconnect tool that the out-going fuel line uses, and...
