Help you must know something about the cracking of stainless steel fuel lines on 2012 escapes !,, Ford parts guys say there on interstellar back order. Yet they never sell them ,hardly..never seen them Crack either ! I'm going to cut and splice in fuel hose if I can cut it with a tubing cutter. The two hairline cracks occurred where the pipe contacted at the plastic snap clip mount exactly. No bend or impact damage to pipe that I could detect as a cause for fracture. I'm thinking bad mounting stress on pipe as a cause ? What have you experienced with stainless steel fuel line repair in general and the Escape? Thanks you videos are excellent !

Awesome videos man! I have a 2018 F150 Raptor with a stalling issue when the engine is warm. This will only happen when the vehicle has reached normal temperature, no issues while driving, no loss of power, no check engine lights. The issue comes in when attempting to start the vehicle after has been used for a couple of miles. Been to three different FORD service departments still having the same issue. Not much information on forums for this exact issue. I would really love to pick up your mind on this scenario. Been dealing with this issue for about 6 months now with no check engine lights. Putting my thoughts together I do remember this issue started after running low on fuel for a couple of miles before getting into the gas station. Also if a park on my driveway nose down it would start with a rough idle but will NOT die. When parking on a level surface or nose up it will die immediately and sometimes it'll give me a long cranking. All this is only when the engine has reached normal temperature. In the mornings when the vehicle has sat the whole night, it will fire up perfectly no matter the angle or position of the truck.

I really would have liked you to take the pump a part to see what was causing the pressure relief valve to stick, I bet it was a piece of plastic or something that came loose after being manufactured since it took about a year to malfunction. Also, since it partially works should be an easy fix. If you still have it, go a head and take it a part it's just a few screws. Curious minds want to know.

After the dealer did the SAFETY PROGRAM 16S41 recall then my '12 Escape has the exact long crank hard start that they describe in the actual recall. But that dealer is 2 hours away and the local dealer says they won't fix the other dealers problem even though it is a recall. They think it is from nicked barbs on the hose connection. Do you think I can fix it with some fuel resistant RTV? Thanks

Update. Started the van today and disconnected the maf harness clip while running amd stayed on. Drove local for about 5 miles to warm it up. All that showed on the obd reader was the maf codes because it was obviously disconnected. The p0303 and P0171 codes never came back on. Afer the 5 miles I reconnected the maf and drove hard for another 3 to for miles and ran completely fine with no check engine light. Any thoughts what could be the culprit? Maybe the coil pack is cracked and after so many miles of heating up it starts to misfire? Has brand new plugs and wires. Fuel filter clogged? Egr valve clogged with carbon build up? Sprayed brake cleaner along all vacuum lines and gaskets. No sounds i hear. Weird. Appreciate the feed back. 98 Windstar 3.8 limited 4 speed w/ OD

I currently have a 2023 ford maverick (EB 2.0), and I notice the HPFP is getting louder compare to when I first got it, and I noticed some strong gasoline smell from the engine oil cap. The dealer said everything is normal and within the "normal" range :(. I was thinking about to change the HPFP to the Bosch one, and would you recommend to do so? Also, without removing the engine, is it still possible to crank the engine to the "flat" spot when installing the new HPFP? Thank you

Buddy, I have this explorer 2013, came in with abs lights n skid car light on, and they were like they had this light & an electrician scan and advised them to change the abs module, they got new abs module thrown to the car but yet we’re like the old code resurface again, and that is U3000. In the abs, I further asked them what happen or did they carried out any repair works before this symptoms appeared, and they were like this abs light wasn’t ON until they had the steering rack asst replaced and drove a couple of miles then BAAM the abs lights n skid appear, so I am push to conclude that could be their old abs isn’t bad but could be the steering rack, now here is my question, does the rack need programming, if yes, what about the new abs module too, and can you share some steps involve in coding the rack,

Hello, I would need advice, I have the F-150 5.4 triton 2004, and I am running out of speed of the engine. CHECK lights up, and the diagnosis writes a poor mix, but obviously everything works electrically. When the accelerator accelerates from the idling speed, detonation is heard in the suction line. Otherwise, in the high swaths, everything is no problem. Do you have any experience what could be damaged? Zdeněk Czech Republic.

This a Toyota related question.. so you can answer if you want ☺️ but the pump is almost the same setup. I have been doing my own testing on a hard start issue and when checking the pump I realized I didn't fasten it down properly and fuel was spraying out at the top where it wasn't fastened right. My question is, is that right? If the pumping (sucking/ pumping) happens at the bottom why would file spray out at the top? Could it be a break in the line? Actually I would really appreciate it if you would answer me.

I have a fairly new car with very few miles and when i bought it, i ran it out of gas with about 40 miles showing on the trip indicator, about 1/8 tank. Tow truck came to give me a couple gallons and i was on my way. about a month later it died on my way into work. It was running like shit and finally gave up as i was making my way onto the highway ramp. It has about 1/4 tank, and it DOES have fuel to the high pressure rail, i just don't have the correct adapter to test the pressure. i wonder if i got shit pressure...... I've been chasing a no start problem all winter long, and i havent given much attention to the pump because i can confirm the pump is working, but ill bet its not working as good as it should. im going straight home to A: empty my gas can into the tank to see if that gets it to start B: figure out exactly what i need to make a custom rig for a fuel pressure reading! Thank you for the video. Luckily, i do believe i can reach my fuel sender right under the rear seat, inside the cabin of my car.

The pump requires a certain amount of fuel to run normally. Without the fuel to cool the pump it runs hotter requiring more current draw leading to fuse failure and cooking the blades.

Charged the battery and it got hot, It kicked the starter over ok but car didn't start. Battery dead won't take a charge. Battery was 2005. Replaced battery with new one. Cranks starter ok and sputters but won't start and run. Put 5 gal fresh gas in tank over half full. Seems to run spraying carb cleaner into intake but doesn't run. Checked 15 amp fuse. Removed and put back relay. Gona try reset inertia switch. Do you think it is weak gas? Or Fuel pump fail? Or clogged gas line / fuel rail? Could my computer be zapped from charging battery and over heating? Am I missing something? Tried in park and neutral. Pressed inertia switch it clicked but car still won't start. 2004 Ford Focus Wagon ZTW 3.8 - 4 cyl. Swapped high beam relay with fuel pump relay. Still won't start. Help THNX

I'm facing the same situation. I Have not bought a new one yet. Wondering how it's performing even though this thread is closed or old right now. Sure would help me make a wise decision. I have an 1994 E-250 that needs a pump. Tempting to save that much money but is it worth it? Thanks.

Well today I had a first time for everything moment. I went to replace a fuel pump on a 2014 Expedition but there was a problem. I was taking out the old pump, but the pump housing would not fit through the hole on the tank. It took me an hour to get the pump out of the tank. It seems the material the pump housing was made out of had swollen up to the point I had to fight the thing to finally get it out. I have never seen this before. May be faulty materials, but it is a factory Motor Craft pump. Maybe bad gas or other additives. Finally with the aid of several screwdrivers and a lot of pulling it came out. I installed a new Motor Craft pump and it fit no problem. May be someone has seen this before and knows how this could have happened. Update: I have since found other videos and comments stating the same problem. It seems the 2010 to 2014 Fuel pumps have this problem where the material the fuel pump module is made of expands over time when exposed to fuel. Which is normally not a problem as it is taken into consideration during design. However, in this case someone seems to have dropped the ball during the design of the fuel pump assembly and did not take into consideration that the body of the lower assembly over time can swell to the point it can't be removed without much effort and a lot of bad words being used. The replacement pump is a new Ford Motor Craft pump PFS-579-1X, I used a pneumatic die grinder and a burr tool to cut away the edge on one side of the lower assembly so it can't get caught on the opening of the fuel tank when removing in the future. I hope this helps to be made aware of the problem.

I changed my fuel pump mass air flow sensor fuel pump module filter fuzes and everything else I can think of and the gauge cluster tells me check gauges when I first turn key or if it has run and I head into a store I get a crank no start for about three cranks Any thoughts on what I need to do to fix it

I had that happen with my high mileage Escort. It was the little tongue that sticks out of the ignition cylinder and goes into the switch. It was flexing as it started to fail due to fatigue. Keep a set of screw drivers in the car.

When i start up my car, the rpm of the car is fluctuating and the engine hesitates, but after driving in the main road (~100 km/hr), the hesitation disappears 80%. No engine light appears. Is this problem related to the fuel system?

Josh Smith i have replaced the spark plug of the cylinder that causes the problem. Now thanks god the hesitation has disappeared.. I didn’t change that spark plug from the beginning because it looks good. I never thought it is the one which caused the problem.
