    I replaced mine today! Thank you for the video it was a real time saver and more importantly it saved me about $1,400!! Thats how much the mechanic shop wanted to charge me. Thanks again. I also changed the oil to get the gasoline out of the engine.

    A couple of comments here, you dont have to do the crankshaft step, the pump will go back to the right posistion and if you happen to have the code related, ypu just delete the code on your scanner or it will go away with the proper drive cycle. Also, dont forget to buy the 2 parts altogether, the pump and the fuel line, try to do this with your tank almost empty. When you are about to take the fuel line, place the rug on top, like when you are trying to squeeze a lemon and dont want the juice spread all over. Also as a suggestion, while you have all that area clear, what I did was I remove the whole intake manifold and I was able to clean up the intake inside because mine had oil, also I cleaned up the throttle body, once I finished with that I replaced the pump. It took me and my wife like 4 or 5 hours, no prior experience whatoever, just youtube and the right tools. Good luck

      @hecrypavo what happens if I turn the crankshaft (i was only able to turn it about 45 degrees) after replacement? should I turn it counterclockwise? is there any potential damage? after i replaced the pump I had several codes that I'm wondering are related. One was exhaust camshaft position sensor performance, another was Map low circuit sensor voltage, as well as fuel rail pressure sensor code. Are these related to the turning of the crankshaft turning? I can't find answers anywhere.

    • @Hecrypavo
      @Hecrypavo Рік тому

      @@aikmanben I am not sure if they are related, you may move the sensors in any way? Check the connectors, unplug them, clen them with the correct cleaner and after that erase the codes with yoir scanner. Also, you may want to do your car DRIVE CYCLE, check it out and try to do it correctly, the codes may dissapear after the correct drive cycle, very impprtant.

    EXCELLENT VIDEO. My mechanic wanted $600 to replace the HP pump. I did it myself, Thanks to Mr Fix It, for $150. Perfectly done video. The weird thing is that the auto part stores and Amazon said the part numbers were not for my 2013 Terrain. I took a chance and ordered the part numbers on the video and they are the correct ones. Doesn't matter if it's FLEX fuel engine or not

    Does the crankshaft need to be rotated back after replacing the pump? Immediately after replacing it I got three codes. The exhaust camshaft position sensor performance, low circuit voltage to the MAP, and fuel rail pressure sensor went off. Could this have something to do with the crankshaft being lowered? Because I didn't return it to it's original position. Also, sometime later my power steering failed and airbag sensor for passenger seat was off.

I had to get my car towed to the shop and have the cylinder head rethreaded! And before this happened, they weren’t torqued enough and the fuel pump pressure pushed the pump forward and separated from the cylinder creating a fuel leak. Lord. Talk about problems.

      I used this kit and it worked pretty good. I was able to get new bolts in tight enough. It’s a lifesaver I’m telling you.

      If it doesn't turn at all, then the fuel pump isn't the issue. Perhaps ignition related problems. Or maybe even fuses.
      If it turns but dont start, then it could be fuel pump...but also a lot of ofher issues.
      If u feel comfortable following the video, just loosen the high pressure fuel line at the bottom sode of the pump. Then crank the engine few seconds. If u see fuel squirting, the pump might be fine. If no fuel then pump might be questionable.
      But i would still check spark, and other things before getting into fuel pump

      Remove fuel pump relay if possible and start the engine until it dies a few times.
