Guest scoobie Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 I have a 2.0hpi petrol estate which i have just had recovered home by rac! They believe fuel pump has stopped workin correctly. Car will turn over and fire up, but not keep running. Crank sensors etc have been checked and are ok. Any way i can check if fuel pump is operating correctly, or any idea on how to remove it! Thanks in advance Quote
paul.h Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 The hpi engine has 2 fuel pumps, one in the tank and one at the engine end. These are covered in the Haynes manual. There were some posts not too long ago on the fuel pump but I can not remember the details so a search will find them. Quote
coastline taxis Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 The one in the tank (low pressure pump) lift up back seat and remove the round inspection panel. Once remove unclip the multiplug and the 2 fuel lines next unscrew the the big black plastic ring and lift pump out. if the pump is going to be out for a while replace the black plastic sealing ring. Engine pump (high pressure pump) located at the passemgers side of the cylinder head remove the 2 fuel lines 1 clips on and 1 bolts on then remove the 2 securing bolta and pull away from engine. Got both of them pumps if you get stuck Quote

Do not want to break the connecter!Thanks in advance. Quote
paul.h Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 You have probably removed them by now but from Haynes, you push down the release tabs (coloured plastic inserts) on the connectors and they should just pull off. Quote
