SYMPTOMS OF A BAD FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR

If we are watching this video then chances are we are not having an outstanding day lol

Bingo! 2005 Ford Explorer V6 4.0L. Running fine one day and wouldn't stay running the next. Disco'd the MAF sensor (after cleaning it failed) and it started right up. R2'd and now it runs even smoother than before. Thanks!

My girlfriend is going to loves me a bit extra because I will be able to fix her ride. Thanks for this 😊

EXCELLENT CHANNEL! Excellent info, especially for us non mechanics who are trying to diagnose and fix our cars when a REAL mechanic/garage can't! Priceless! Thank you! If anyone wants to comment...I just had the fuel pump replaced when it failed and left me sitting, mid drive. But when I got my 03 Buick Rendezvous back from the shop, it now just cuts out while driving. (Like it's not getting gas) If I let off the gas when it starts to happen, many times it will recover without shutting off. If I'm going up a hill and I continue to try to get up the hill by lightly giving gas as its slowing down, it WILL backfire. I returned it to the garage because interior lights were coming on and off while driving all the while this continued, thinking maybe they crossed the wires on the fuel pump upon installation. (Now these symptoms only happen AFTER it is warmed up. Never happens cold. Well the mechanic said it was the wiring harness and apparently replaced that. They said it was fixed (no charge 🙂) Picked it back up and same symptoms continue. Spitting sputtering cutting out and shutting off. (Not the battery, but the engine , losing power steering and brakes if I can't get it to "recover" by fanning the gas, or throwing it into neutral and revving.) Now I'm thinking gas pressure sensor? Any comments greatly appreciated!! Thanks yall, from this southern girl to....you? Lol) I should add recently before this I had a different shop remove my catalytic convertor (without my permission!) When I took it in to have 02 sensors replaced. A week after that, the fuel pump went up and when I got it out of the garage, that's when these new symptoms appeared. The adventure continues....🥴

Thanks brother. Im having all these symptoms on my 90 accord. Will try the fuel pressure regulator and drive the car

Perfect! Well explained. Thank you.

You left out an important one, when the regulator fails to go closed all the way it fails to maintain higher pressure during heavier fuel demand under load, resulting in loss of power.

Bro thanks for this video, I have a p0175 code, I’ve been looking at multiple videos and all them dudes was way off. This the one right here!

Great video… thanks for sharing!

Wow and it’s that simple thanks for making it an easy follow video

Thank-You For Your Video !! - Great Job Explaining It All !! 💖

You’re my god. I do wish I saw this before I changed the whole fuel pump tho

This video helped me very much is what I needed the information I was looking for on my 2002 Mitsubishi eclipse GT that's having a problem running it's not running right after I replaced the spark plugs and wires and changed the distributor Cap and still the same I never thought to look at the fuel regulator

Thank you for your help

All on point for what I experienced

ok, I pulled my fuel lines off of the manifold behind the throttle body. Took carburetor cleaner, filled up the two holes. They filled right up. Came back 3 hours later, and the inlet side was empty. Evaporated I asked myself? Put more in, but it would not fill up the hole. Put the fuel lines back, and "Wham!" Truck started, ran good. I did not have to remove intake manifold.

Well done!

Thanks man something is up with my miata

Thank you!
