First of all Thank you for the video I needed to refer back to it on a few occasions especially when it came to lock ring position and plug I was able to use a wooden block and rubber mallet to release ring and fortunately it only took about 2 dozen hits to get it to start turning I’m guessing it’s probably the second module to be installed either that or I just fluked it Thanks for the time it took to film
Awsome , thanks for the great overview ! What a stupid idea that fuel filter is & about as stupid as the spark plugs to replace ! They must have used architects to design the maintenance on these Klugers 😂😂😂 . Well I'll be giving mine a go next week ...... fingers crossed 🤞
My fuel filter casing..the things with spring my mechanic did some work on it so one side don't have spring and it is bent inside so it doesn't enter the fuel tank straight he have to bend it before it can enter...is it bad?
@MiracleMAX like let's say the spring side or the iron holding the upper part of the fuel filter casing is 7cm and the other side is 7cm but mine is 7cm one side and the other side is compressed to like 4 cm making the whole thing not straight so now my fuel won't yet enter refuel but the car will off due to no fuel
@@victorekeh6752 sounds like someone has damaged it. Was the circlip put on the right side like shown in the video? If the mechanic did that, he needs to fix it
Do you have voltage and ground readings at the pump connection? Can you hear the pump buzzing when you turn the key on or crank the engine? If so, is it possible that you could have left off a hose in the module itself or damaged an o'ring inside the module? Have you primed the fuel pump?
@@MaryanneGumai-vp5py The module is the entire unit - pump, filter & sender unit. The unit you pulled out of the tank to replace the filter. I suggest that you may have left off a hose or pinched it or possible left out an o'ring off the module inside the tank. I gather you have no fuel coming out of the tank outlet with the hose disconnected? You will need to attach a hose onto that outlet into a waste container to do that test safely.
Did you view the entire video? It was about replacing the fuel filter, which is built into the fuel pump module. It can look like nothing has been done, but I shown you the part numbers of the filters used on this specific model. ua-cam.com/video/alvRtGeS6ck/v-deo.html Replacing the filter on a regular basis is required for the manufacturers specific service schedule.
@@MiracleMAX it was very obvious what you did, don’t worry. Think old mates just a bit slow. Appreciated the video though, as I have an 04 kluger and I suspect it’ll be very similar to change the fuel filter, which I’ll be doing within the next week. 👍
@ilix-haxq-xili5834 ok genius! I was a little confused about what was done. I was not familiar with the nomenclature, I thought the "sock" was the filter, and saw that he reuse the pump and sock. Either way, having rewatched the video, I had a complete understanding of what was done and replaced. You don't have to call people slow because they don't understand or misunderstood certain things.
As the filter is a service item and there was nothing wrong with the pump, only the filter was replaced. Also you have to factor in the cost of a module compared to just the filter
I've been puzzled by that jet pump thing, seeing that not all Toyotas have them. Thanks for the note about them.
No problem!

Well done on your successful repair. Those locking rings can be a real pain, so you did very well 👍
Beautiful, nice job ,some mechanics don't want to do that ,just change the whole thing
Since it is a service item, it would get very pricey to replace the entire module each time.
Thanks for your comment. 😉
@@MiracleMAX I priced one today at a local auto parts store. $450 USD for the whole module. They suggested that online search for just specific parts.

Make sure you buy the locking ring before you start. It will save you a lot of heartache. Hope it goes well for you.

These only have a spring on one side. What 'work' was done on the fuel module? What do you mean that it is bent inside?

I did replace the fuel filter like what you did, but the engine is not starting. What should I do?
Do you have voltage and ground readings at the pump connection? Can you hear the pump buzzing when you turn the key on or crank the engine? If so, is it possible that you could have left off a hose in the module itself or damaged an o'ring inside the module? Have you primed the fuel pump?
@@MiracleMAX which one is the module?
@@MiracleMAX yes, I can hear the pump buzzing
@MiracleMAX there's fuel supply runing through the hose.

Does anyone know how to find out where max is I need to get work done
Hey Ben,
You can catch up with me via Email

Hey Ben,
And a genuine, good man too.
What did you actually replace? You kept the pump and old filter.
How did he keep the old filter?

@@Ripley.martin Good idea to order the locking collar before starting the job. Hope it goes well for you 😉😉

After all that, you might as well just replace the whole pump!
