There's no magic timeline for fuel pump life. To many variables. The only way to know if yours is failing, is to test it. Then add in milage and year. Could yours be failing @ 180,000. Absolutely, clogging pick up sock, filter, wear and tear on the motor in the pump. When in doubt, change it out! Did my 06' ION 2.2 w/ 136k- just because it's cheap - n - easy.
@@Thelifeofchanny that sucks, I guess you could remove the tank and dump the fuel out. best probably to have someone more knowledgeable than me help you.
Great video, gotta do mine as well. I'll be using your video as my guide, cheers from Montreal.
I was really hoping to see some details....sucks bc this is the only vid I can find....so you HAVE to take the tank off?
What gas octane do ya run in it
What's the tube that crosses the tank from one side to the other behind the pump? While removing mine I either cracked it or it was already broke.
Nice video. Would cutting an access panel be feasible with these vehicles?
i'm not sure, possibly...
How long does the fuel pump last? Does anybody knows?please I have an 07 with 180000 miles. Thanks in advance.

I have the Same car 2006 Saturn ion , do you know how I can get the wrong gas pumped out of my car ???
If you mean put a different octane in there? (Like 93 instead of 87)?
Unless you somehow got Diesel fuel in there you should be fine.
It’s diesel gas In

@@Anttiajt how about drilling a hole?
Disconnect at the fuel rail and turn it on, have something to catch it where it’s gonna pump out.
