My 2015 PX XLT (3.2) Wouldn't prime with just turning the key on, I had to "bump" the starter for a seccond and then I could hear the fuel pump prime up. Just a heads up for people who may not be able to get the car running after a filter change. You should be able to hear the pump run as it's pretty loud when getting the air out of the system. Great video.

thanks for the info. by "bumping" the starter, do you mean attempt to start it then just stop when the engine is about to crank?

@lindabengane6095 3 жыл бұрын

I have a 2014 3.2 XLT and its always a huge problem to get it to start after a filter change no matter how many times I try to prime it. I would open the injector rail and use a manual pump for about 2secs while someone is cranking the engine, only then the car would start. What do you really mean when you say you bump the starter ?

@Somneguy1 3 жыл бұрын

Just to clarify when I say bump the starter I mean crank the engine but only for a second, then stop. You should be able to hear the pump priming under the rear seat area

I have just done the fuel filter on my 3.2 litre PX2 Ranger and found the following. When dismantling the fuel filter although the tightening ring and the upper filter housing are marked the lower housing is not (not on mine anyway). This makes reassembly somewhat difficult as orientation of the components has to be reestablished. I did this by removing the filter & "O" ring and temporary sitting the filter back into place to check it was right. The next thing I found was that the "O" ring on the filter & the "O" ring on the filter housing has to be lubricated or it wont fit together easily. I also found I had to firmly press the two filter halves together so the tightening ring can be tightened properly.

good find, what did you lubricate it with?

Ive worked diesels since i was 17,certifiedmechanic since i was 18, always a good idea to fill the filtermwith diesel tomremove the air,injectorsmdont like air,lol and makes for a better prime on the system,air is not good!!!!!😂😂😂😂

@maartinherbst7926 3 ай бұрын

I agree. It works best when you soak the filter and add a little bit of diesel to the housing before assembly. Starts very easy after priming.

Thank you. I have a question. Being that the 3.2 ranger has a mechanical fuel pump that runs by the main timing chain. When you turn on the ignition, what creates the fuel pressure to fill the filter being that the engine is not running? Thanks

Thats a great question but unfortunately i dont have the answer to that, that question is a bit too technical for my knowledge, maybe someone else may be able to answer it

@TheInsightDistrict 4 жыл бұрын

I will have to look into the specifics, but if you put a multimeter onto the wires going into the mafs, when you accelerate it will produce a voltage it it's working correctly

@246goess 4 жыл бұрын

@@TheInsightDistrict but how much voltage? I suspect it is not working good because when you startup the diesel smoke would kill you and it just does not have that kick anymore. Another headache is parts here In Barbados is do dam expensive, a new one is $565

Replace the filter after the water sensor show water in the diesel filter.However couldn't find any trace of water on removal. Fit new filter after cleaning.Did the priming 5 times, start no problem.Run for 15 min, switch off, switch on.The light still shows water in the filter.When switch on, the light fuel and water,goes off in a couple of secs, start no problem.It doesn't come on when the engine is running. Could it be a sensor fault

@TheInsightDistrict 2 жыл бұрын

Yes its quiet possible to be a faulty sensor

It comes on briefly so that you know the circuit is working, this is normal.
