I honestly had low expectations. I’m a retired boomer, ex mechanic, tech line guy. This was a great video ! Very well done. I did the filter on my Mountaineer today, expecting the pump might be next. Thanks for such a well done instructional video.
I replaced my first ever fuel pump today thanks to this video. Thank you for the best tutorial on UA-cam!
Thanks for the video, you're a life saver!
Very well done video. Love it! About the only thing I could add is that while you have the gas tank off the car, it would be a great time to clean out the fuel tank with some fuel tank cleaner, as well as replace your evap canister since it's very likely clogged up after a quarter million miles. This way you get the whole shebang done in one fell swoop. I love how you replaced the fuel filter at the same time, many others forget this important step.
Just found your site. You are very articulate and a good teacher.
Don't think I want to tackle this job as my car was probably a flood damage product and there is a lot of rust in the undercarriage. Also would need to buy another floor jack and jack stands.
Good luck with your UA-cam adventure. Stan S
Great video as always
You're an Explorer GOAT.
I remember on one of your older videos you mentioned having a pre oiler for your explorer. I’d like to do the same, instead of having to do the flood method on startup when it gets cold out. Did you buy a kit or build it yourself? Just got a 2010 explorer with the 4.0 and want to take care of it how I can!
Great vid.
Gingerly well done mate~
Great job…. Done and done
great video
Just a heads up if you ever have to the hub assembly’s are easy to replace in these I’ve replaced mine twice in the left rear because I didn’t think about changing the cv axel I drive a 04 explorer
U have independent or dependent axle
What symptoms were you experiencing? Thanks
when reinstalling, be conscious of where the filler vent line is so you don't let it get pinched. because i let mine pinch 🤬. Was only able to fill about 2 gal at a time before having to wait almost a whole minute to add more. I wasn't able to get back under there to fix it for about 3 weeks due to rain and having to do my work outside 😅
Replaced the fuel pump thanks to your helpful video but, did empty the tank once it was off because of how heavy it was, now it won’t let me fill up ? Do you have suggestions??
breather issue with fuel filler neck
Question how do you bleed the fuel system after replacing the fuel pump ?
Don’t have to. Just turn the key.
hey, watsup bro? I have a 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac, with bad engine and transmission, I am considering a swap or rebuilding them both, can You advise and guide me? Your help will be greatly appreciated.
if i were you i'd see what i could do to fix the engine. But the transmission is something i'd replace. That engine isn't to bad to work on. Because of Platinum Garages channel iv'e been able to replace the timing stuff, head and rear main seal. not to hard, you just have to be careful and take your time
if i wanted to swap a v8 into my old v6 4.0 explorer is it possible? and how much would i pay a designated mechanic to install
It would be cheaper to buy a V8 explorer.
@@iamdjnamfind me a good one around indiana area
You'll have to swap the transmission too.
@kadebowman2608 were there ever any 'good ones'? 😂
@@dukefuller1171 no i just bought one with a v8
I’m confused why you took it all off when you can reach that with the back seat
Good video I have a 2006 explorer with a gas leak on the passenger side thank so much every little bit helps and make sure you ware safety goggles under the truck safety first !!!!!!!!!!
But why do you have to drop the furl tank if you already touched the fuel pump im confused
I don’t understand the question
@iamdjnam I'm an dumb lol and had fuel filter typed in the and didn't realize this was a fuel pump video 😆 I was like that does look right haha
@mikeillaoi9198 lmaooo no problem
The hardest part I believe ,is the damn clips.. WHY CANT THEY JUST MAKE A CLIP FOR ALL. ????? JOB SECURITY I GUESS
Im trys order the goddam fuel pump but idk if its the 7 or 8 pin connector
I'm dealing wit crank no start on 02 explorer xlt fuses good new relay fuel filter spark n wire also distribution box got pressure and fuel in the shrader valve n yet no luck
Why did you do the fuel pump?
The gauge didn’t work but I figured while I’m in there I would replace it because it had over 200,000 miles on it.
@@iamdjnam thank you for your timely response. I am experiencing shaking at red lights or stop signs and the car stalling at the bottom of hills coming to a rest. Does this sound like fuel pump issues to you? Also, I am getting the code P0171 oxygen sensor detecting to lean of a mixture. Thanks again for any response. Glad you got your truck sorted.
@@chrisalarcon7013 sounds like a vacuum leak especially with that code
@@iamdjnam that’s what I suspect as well. I will keep looking. Thanks.
Of course, there are some guys who remove the back seat, cut an opening in the floor just over the pump access hatch, and remove the pump that way. They then epoxy some kind of patch over the opening when they're done. Swapping out the pump and/or the sender this way sure saves a lot of under-vehicle acrobatics, knuckle-busting, and other heroics (some of us aren't so young and agile anymore), but I suppose you'd frown on doing is this way. I mean, you wouldn't be able to so any pressure washing, would you? 😄
Bro I’ve done that on junker parts trucks when people ask for the sending unit lmaooo
@@iamdjnam Okay, I'll take that as a sign of disapproval. On two separate occasions, I had to replace the sender and the in-tank pump (the main high-pressure pump was outside the tank) on the Volvo 240 wagon that was my daily driver back then. It was very convenient to just unscrew the access cover the Swedes provided so the tank didn't have to be dropped. Pulling out the spare tire and folding back a piece of carpeting--while remaining upright in the back of the car--was almost enjoyable. I kept that car for over 435,000 miles. I wish I had it back, and I'm glad Ford didn't screw up Volvo in the short time they owned it ("Fiord"). Actually, maybe they did. I don't know anything about Volvos since 2000. I _do_ know about Fords since then. My 2005 V6 Explorer is an example. A far cry from the '74 Mustang I put 200,000 miles on. V6, gear-driven cam timing--no chains or belts. Carburetor, distributor with points, cam-driven diaphragm fuel pump. It ran as smooth as a clock.
The most unreliable car ever made. so annoying
