fuel pump

So I have a bit of a headscratcher going on. I've been letting my daughter use my 2002 Explorer for a few months. Has around 170,000 miles on it and has always run fine. Couple of months back, she calls and tells me that she's at a friend's house and the Explorer will crank, but not start...

Hi, I am posting this thread with hope to help anyone who has the same issue as i had. I han issue with fuel pressure, code P008A, P0087. Did a lot of research and a lot of people fixed this issue by changing the hpfp( high pressure fuel pump), so I did that. Didnt fix the issue. Send the car...

Hi, I'm a 48 year old mother who has a 2000 Ford Explorer limited. V6. I bought it just under a year ago. It was someone's vacation car. Low miles, black with black windows. I just love it. I feel so comfortable in it. It has never given me trouble. I have a man who I cannot trust, which is why...

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...

So my fuel pump has been screaming and wining to be replaced for awhile now and it’s time to do it. I will be dropping the tank not making an access hatch and I do know the basics just from videos and watching people but specifics with this truck no. Just know it’s a rust bucket and I would like...

Ok I have absolutely zero clue what this is. It literally just started like 10 minutes ago. Sorry for the very short clip but that’s what was allowed to send. Btw the clip of me walking is what it usually sounds like. Some context though. I have to replace my tensioner and fuel pump. So it could...

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...

Car cranks but no start, when i turn ignition on there is no fuel pump prime noise. I checked fuel pump relay and other fuses it all works fine. No power coming to inertia switch thats why no power to fuel pump. I checked fuel pump relay pin which gives signal to inertia switch, it works fine...

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...

I recently purchased a 2002 Sport Trac as a project. It had sat for some time and could not start. I knew I would need to take the engine out, but I did some work first and was able to get it to fire (though only for a moment before shutting it off). NOW I have taken the engine out, made...

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...

So I let my brother borrow the '99 XLT for pizza deliveries and explained to him that if the check gage light comes on, you are probably running out of gas. He's out on delivery one night and calls me, "Yo, are you having engine problems? It sounds like it's so close to starting but just...

So my buddy was driving from MI to FL and when he filled up his car he added Fuel injector cleaner and octane boost.... not 100 miles driving he started having some rough driving and now has little to no power when trying to drive. I know what the codes are but before buying parts and jumping to...

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...

Hey everyone hope ya'll are having a great day!. I was wondering how to remove the back seat on my 93 xlt because I'm gonna be replacing the carpet and also cutting a access panel for the fuel pump

Recently posted my 91 explorer intermittently dying on side of road with occasional high idle before dying. Codes 87 and 95. I’ve replace nearly every sensor or part. Now I notice sometimes I turn the key on and the pump won’t turn on, then it cranks excessively until it fires. Today I turned...

Hello. I'm seeing there are two ways I can go about replacing the fuel pump; just the pump itself or the entire apparatus. If I do go ahead with this, I need to keep the cost as low as possible as I'm selling this vehicle and her value isn't much. Can I get away with just replacing the pump...

THANK YOU to ALL of you that shared information with me and helped me to try and figure out what was wrong. Unfortunately...it was the FUEL PUMP again...ughhhh This is an awesome forum and all of you just amazing. Amazingly knowledgeable and amazingly kind to take YOUR time to help someone else.

I need to replace fuel pump on my 2005 Ford Explorer. I purchased a fuel pump which the Auto Store matched and it doesn't match my fuel pump. Mine has a oblong female plug-in molded into the top of fuel tank. The one I purchased has two leads with male plug-in's one square and one round. Why...

Hey all, This post is for the sake of sharing a fix that worked for me. I recently purchased this '92 XLT, manual. It's my second Explorer. I purchased a '93 XLT with manual hubs and a manual transmission and that's gone through two starters now and with the new one I have no desire to fix the...

Hello All! I have a 1994 Auromatic Explorer w/ 4 wheel drive. At the end of March I started having issues starting. Replaced the battery, that didn't help, so I dug deeper and realized it was the fuel pump. Replaced that, issue went away. Fast forward to Oct, she has a rough sounding start...

Hi Friends, I'm brand new to this forum and to doing any significant maintenance myself. Please forgive my ignorance if it jumps up in the middle of a nice dinner and parades around the room yelling obscenities. I started having power issues driving old faithful across the west. Occasionally I...

Been trying to figure this out for a few weeks now, being busy with a baby and all is kind of hard to get this done, pulled the valve covers to check the timing chains. They Seem Ok, One Chain in the rear has a small amount of slack on one side, the other (the side with the tensioner) will not...

Hey, I am new to the forum - I recently purchased a 2008 Explorer Limited with a fuel sending unit issue. I have learned a great deal from the forum, so I wanted to share a couple things I figured out while replacing the fuel pump this weekend. 1. You probably could do it without disconnecting...

I have a 2001 Ford Explorer Sport. It won't start. Cant hear fuel pump cycle when key is in run. If anyone can tell me which fuses and relays need to be checked will be very thankful. And if worst case scenario a fuel pump at around $50

I am not new to this forum, but finally became a member. Have read many helpful posts, which have saved me so many times. I am not an expert mechanic by no means, but being a single mom, on a budget, the determination to figure things out on my own, and that my 97 Explorer means a lot to me (I...

My 99 Limited 4.0LSOHC doesn't start on the first cold try. After reading some previous threads I tried cycling the key to the on position several times and then it would start. Sometimes when driving I experience some hesitation and a couple of times I've put my foot to the floor and no no...

Have a 2000' & 2017' xlt's. Hi. !

I have been having hard starts when the engine is warm and recently the truck stalled and wouldn't restart. It was towed back to my house (thanks Geico) and I got a chance to hook up a fuel pressure guage. The prime before starting yielded 20psi and when running i got just under 30. When the FPR...

Hi everyone my fuel gauge is not reading correctly and I think I need to replace the pump. How hard is it to change it and does anyone have pictures of this install?

About 9 months ago I attempted to address an issue I noticed where, when I would punch, jiggle, etc., my power distribution box under the hood, it would seemingly cause my fuel pump to prime.... Key did not have to be in!! Key did not have to even be near the freakin' car; it could be in a...
