Where is the fuel pump located in the BYD Song?
2 Answers
The fuel pump of the BYD Song is located inside the engine, installed within the oil pan. Relevant information about the fuel pump is as follows: Function of the fuel pump: Gasoline has a cooling and lubricating effect on the fuel pump. If fuel is not replenished promptly after the fuel warning light comes on, the cooling and lubricating effects will diminish, potentially causing damage. Impact of fuel quality on the fuel pump: Impurities in low-quality gasoline can lead to blockages in the fuel supply system and cause wear and damage to the fuel pump. Early failure of the fuel pump is mostly due to the use of low-quality fuel in the vehicle. Electric fuel pump: An electric fuel pump is not driven by the camshaft but relies on electromagnetic force to repeatedly move the pump diaphragm. This type of electric pump can be freely installed at any location and helps prevent vapor lock.
Oh, I remember the fuel pump of the BYD Song is located inside the fuel tank, usually positioned right under the rear seats. I often check it myself when driving—just lift the rear seat cushion and you'll see a round cover. Opening it gives you access to the pump head. This design allows the fuel to directly cool the pump, preventing overheating damage. If the pump fails, you might hear an unusual humming noise or experience difficulty starting the engine and weak acceleration. It's recommended to check the pump noise every six months. When replacing it, visit a professional shop that uses proper tools for quick disassembly and installation. The location is hidden but not hard to find, and proper maintenance can extend its lifespan and save on repair costs. As the car ages, pay extra attention to avoid being stranded on the road. Remember, operating with the tank half-full makes the job easier and prevents fuel splashing.
