Today is my last chance to get the Mule ready for the last "Route 66" car show of the year! I touch up the paint around the edge of the bed, finish the bed liner and wire up a switch for my headlights. I also run through all the "safety checks" before driving the Mule for the first time in four years!

Rafa put a cigar in the gas tank. The tobacco leaf un-rolled and covers the pickup tube while running. Then floats away with it off/no suction. And will run fine till it sucks the leaf back onto the pick up.. Ps: idk, my dad told me this a while ago...

Fuel filter is clogged most likely. That fuel pump is way to loud when you first turn on the key, then it starts to quiet down after you can get some fuel through the system to start it

@hamzterix 9 ай бұрын

Very interesting, maybe the pump isn't bad. It's just starving. There's a blockage somewhere in the fuel cell.

@onesikm3 7 ай бұрын

It could be a loud pump if it’s just hard mounter directly onto metal hangar or chassis doesn’t mean it’s necessarily struggling but it could anything’s possible. It’s always a good idea to use a rubber isolator around the mount

Lookin good Doug, but please fix that wobbly steering wheel and check those adapter lug nuts. I am thinking it is all of the old fuel that was in your tank. It craped out your fuel pump and now you probably have dirty / clogged injectors.

quick ergonomic tip on tightening lug nuts, put the torque wrench at the 10 or 11 o clock position and pull towards you. We are naturally stronger at pulling than pushing and you keep a more upright torso angle.

@11green11 9 ай бұрын

the gas cap comment is possible but I noticed your air filter is right on the throttle body. The subies use a MAF in the late 90s mid 2000s to . unless you are using a MAP tune maybe it's going into open loop fueling when it can't measure the incoming air correctly ?

@michaeldewitt7694 9 ай бұрын

That's your o2 sensor and possibly contamination in your fuel filter. If it boggs when you gas it really quick, than that's it. I had that issue on my truck. Also check your MAF

Try a fuel filter Einstein hahahahaha😂😂😂😂😂 and check fuel pressure out the pump. The mule is AAAAALLLIIIIVVVVEEEE.

@firstnamelastnameisallowed7943 9 ай бұрын

A quick side of the road trick you can do if you ever find yourself in the same situation as Douglas here is to take off your air filter and spray brakleen up the intake. NOT starting fluid but brakleen its a little less fire starting. But spray it up the intake and start it and keep spraying and rev it up to see if it does rev or do the same die and sputter thing. Even if your car wont start this works also to tell if its a fuel issue or something electrical. The brakleen replaces the fuel so if it starts and runs then you know that the electrical side is good. If it does not start then you know its electrical because the fuel is the spray and you are shooting it directly in there. Its a quick easy trick to cut your diagnostic in half more or less.

Did you clean the fiel tank? Did you blow out fuel line? Did you change fuel filter? Did you put fuel cleaner through the lines? Any time a engine bogs means lack of fuel.
