Dude you need to start teaching truly. This was the most descriptive video ever people need to take a lesson from you. Oh an thank you for the video. ;-)
I am a Google mechanic and this video helped a lot.
Thanks
Thank you so much! Fantastic video. Not too much, just perfect. I will be much more confident changing the fuel filter on my girlfriend's Cobalt.
Thanks for the video, nice and to the point.
Great Tutorial, thanks, this filter is identical to what is used on the Saturn Ion[2006] as well, which is what I am working on, and it was an awesome "Help" :)
Thank you for your video and high detail on how to do this. This will help me with my car.
De pressurize the fuel system by pulling the fuse and letting run dry, or by other means. I thought I could get by just leaving the fuel cap off. Also, letting car sit cold overnight may help. I lost about a pint of a gas gulch. Luckily none made it past my safety glasses- so consider eye protection and discarding your clothes as gasoline soils dont always launder too easily. I used the blue/violet plastic Lisle to remove the in line. After that, the two rear lines disconnected much more easily.
Good luck!
Solid tutorial.
My 2003 Saturn L has that same engine, but the filter is different, just 2 connectors, 1 on each side. They have those pinch connectors. I see you were able to release them by hand. I have used needle-nose pliers on the outside of those connectors, but I will have to try by hand, the next time - seems that would be easier. In my Saturn, there is a Schrader valve on the fuel injector rail, on the engine, and I de-pressurize the fuel lines that way (hold a rag over it and let the fuel bleed into the rag). Aside from avoiding spray, I think that depressurizing the fuel lines can make it easier to release the 1st connector on the fuel filter
After driving a few days. Did this really fix the problem? Or was it more then just the fuel filter? Thank you for the video!
Good video... but as I come back to this video I wanna fight you for making it look so easy getting the double side lines off...
Big goat with the lift
This is great Video clear better than other hope i can pull out two clips on right side I had hard time. Thank for sharing.
Any idea why my 2007 Cobolt Coupe LS isn't starting after replacing the fuel pump and new engine
Great video buddy! Thank you for sharing :)
How can you work next to that big puddle of water ?, you need to get rid of the water, it attracts mosquitoes. thanks for the video of the fuel filter.
man, i tried to do it, but my line the single on is rusted as hell, the 10 mill nut is rusted, its not even 10mill more. and one of the clips refused to come off!
Ill do it when the weather gets warmer, thanks for the video
I know you probably have already changed it but I would recommend spraying some pb blaster or anything of that nature a few hours before to let it settle in and make getting things off so much easier
any idea why my car doesn't have one? not even the lines for it
Does it have a fuel regulator i have a 2005 chevy cobalt 2.2 engine and its been using fuel more than normally
Hey, do you recommend pulling the fuel pump fuse, running the car until it stalls, replacing the filter and then replacing the fuse then starting it back up?
Its not necessary, just depends on preference. I don't mind spilling a little fuel. But from my experience, running the fuel pump with out fuel can damage it...
Thanks
pulling the fuse wont hurt the pump at all. It doesn't allow pump to run and the car just burns whatever fuel is in the lines. Pulling the fuse doesn't hurt fuel pump and is the best way to go with changing filter. Less of a mess too!!!
My car is pretty rusty and the bolt on the bracket broke off In half.. do I need to have the bracket on there or can I just superglue the bracket on there (I don’t plan to have the car long enough to need to change it again)
Both ways work, if that is what you are asking. One is obviously sketch.
@@JonnyBarajas which one is sketch lol
After you started the vehicle you should have checked the filter again to make sure it did not leak.
great video but add captions for hearing impaired
hi . is that white plastic in the side of the new fuel filter i take it off ?
I would keep the white plastic clip on
Holy...... how in heck is the underneath that clean.. looks MINT, craziness must be the area its been in.
Paul Chamberlin - I was thinking the exact same thing???
@@kimberlybrookes5844 wow a woman in a car viddeo, this is rare 😃
Hey I have a quick question do you think I have the same problem with my car it would turn off on stops and my rpm would keep going up and down like crazy...won't stay on the 1 it's either in the half or would just turn off
Bryan Mauricio the fuel filter helps the rpm's alot, but another possible cause can also be the alternator running low amps.
I had a similar problem with my 2006 Chevy 2.2 cobalt. I took both battery and alternator, the alternator was bad. I replaced the alternator and my car wouldn't turn off anymore. Also, ignition switch has been a problem for cobalts I believe.
(took the alternator and battery to AutoZone to get tested)
Try to clean the throttle body and you will see results let me know if it works
Bryan Mauricio
I have the the same exact problem did you fix it??
Hey dont you gotta depressurize the fuel system? How do you do that? 0_o
+yobair A bit late but take out the fuse for fuel injection then crank the engine for 10 seconds.
Im confused on the whole fuse situation, anyone advise it? If i skip it to avoid damaging the pump how much fuel will i leak?
look for fuse box under the hood and find the fuse for fuel pump. Pull it out and start car until it dies from no fuel. This wont hurt fuel pump or anything else.. all it does is shuts fuel pump off and the motor burns the leftover fuel in the fuel lines. Doing this will keep you from pouring fuel all over yourself
I change the fuel filter, fuel pump, map senor, even the gas pedal I gave up I don't know what's wrong with my car. Keep turning off on stop sign and rpm go up and down...
+Bryan Mauricio Throttle body
definitely the throttle body
Hey just clean the throttle body with an throttle cleaner it only cost like $5 at your local autozone
My check engine light come on on my 2005 Chevy Cobalt
Man who thought putting the fuel filters literally behind the gas tank under a bunch of shit AND requiring you to jack up the car was a smart idea... My old ass Toyota has the fuel filter literally in the hood easily accessible with a ratchet.
