Lift Pump ?

Featured Replies

So i can Hear my lift pump going when i turn ignition on,

But i have disconneted a hose off of fuel filter and no fuel is coming through when i turn ignition or even crank over.

 

 

 

Car obviously isnt starting just cranking over.

 

Just wondering if it could be anything other than Knackered lift pump as it is £300Inc VAT From TPS.  :thumbdown:  :dull:

Fuel pump relay.

Fuel pump relay.

Common Fault?

 

Excuse My Ignorance but surely i wouldnt hear fuel Pump Priming if the Relay Was Down ?

Edited by Jackety123

If it's running then why no fuel?

 

They either work or they don't, if it's running it's working and you should get fuel from the supply line, are you sure you're not looking at the return line?

Is there any chance that the reason could be that there is no fuel in the tank?

if you're not getting fuel from a direct feed pipe its either pump or relay if you can hear its priming it not relay maybe dodgy pump

Thanks So much man! 

I Couldnt Find an OE Pump Anywhere!?

Called Eurocarparts And Motorparts Direct and they said main Dealer!

 

Appreciate it :D

Is that the right hose to disconnect? Illustrations suggest the feed pipe is the one going to the turrety thingy.

The correct way to test the pump is to see if the delivery is about one litre a minute, as has been said you can run the pump with vcdsor connect a 12volt supply to it to test. If you have a multi meter that will read current it should take 5 to 6 amps.It is possible to tesr the speed of the pump with a occilloscope and current clamp, this should be about 4200 to 4400rpm.

video sais its private can't view it m8

Don't see any point in posting a video, you need to do some proper tests with the right equipment or call a garage out to it.

that is the supply m8 only thing between that and fuel coming through is the pump it must be faulty

Ok man. Thanks for help. And freelancerman. Why spend money on a garage doing it when I can attempt to fix it first.
