Does replacing the fuel pump on a 2013 Sail require removing the fuel tank?
1 Answers
Replacing the fuel pump on a 2013 Sail requires removing the fuel tank. Difficulty in cold starts may indicate the need to replace the fuel pump: Cold start difficulties are caused by loose connections or gaps in the fuel pump pipeline, leading to fuel leakage into the fuel tank and a drop in fuel system pressure. In such cases, inspect the pipeline connections, replace the rubber hoses, and the fuel pump. Excessive noise from the fuel pump may indicate the need for replacement: This is typically caused by clogged filters, incorrect fuel pump installation, resonance during operation, or using an incompatible fuel pump model, which can lead to noise. Over time, the fuel pump may wear out and reach the end of its service life.
