How to Solve the Problem of Unable to Start Due to a Faulty Fuel Pump?
1 Answers
If the fuel pump is faulty and the car cannot start, the fuel filter must be replaced. The reasons for fuel pump damage are as follows: 1. Insufficient fuel in the tank: When the fuel level warning light on the dashboard is illuminated, there is approximately 7 liters of fuel remaining in the tank. At this point, the fuel level is too low, and the fuel pump motor does not receive adequate cooling and lubrication, leading to overheating or even stoppage. If the fuel pump frequently operates under such conditions, premature failure is inevitable. 2. Poor fuel quality: When fuel quality is poor, the fuel tank may contain various impurities or debris. The fuel is drawn through the filter screen at the bottom of the pump and delivered to the engine. During this process, larger particles are filtered out, but smaller particles are sucked into the fuel pump motor, accelerating wear and causing damage.
