how can i tell if the theft system is keeping the car from starting. The car wont start out of the blue. I opened up the air filter and sprayed in starter fluid, started right up, but dies when i stop spraying. This leads me to think its a fuel problem. Changed fuel filter, and pump is working fine. Any help would be great.98 Chevy malibu theft system? no fuel seems to be the problem?
I had the same problem with a Geo prism LSI. To my surprise it turned out to be the coil pack. I always thought that when it went bad there would be no spark, it turns out, there is just less and Ether is so combustible it will burn on even the smallest spark and the engine will start, but then die very quickly (gasoline will just spit and sputter) .98 Chevy malibu theft system? no fuel seems to be the problem?
it was a theft system problem the security light will flash and will not start no matter what u spray in it how do u know the pump is working on a GM especialy it may have some fuel pressure but if it is even 1to2 pounds low it wont run u need a pressure test and volume test and i bet you will find something wrong gl

How did I mess up changing my fuel filter?
I have a 1991 toyota mr2. It was having a problem stalling out, but would usually start right back up, and sometimes it would take 10 or 15 times or a rolling start, but it would always start. I suspected it was the fuel filter. i put a ton of fuel injector cleaner and it stopped stalling completely, but I wanted to change the filter anyway, since it was probably filthy. I changed the fuel filter myself, and it seemed pretty simple, but now the car won't start. I didn't put it in upside down or swith the fuel lines, I'm sure. The only thing I didn't do was replace the bolts or washers, which everybody says you have to do, but I don't understand why. The only thing i could think of is that I misaligned the bolt with the fuel line (the bolt has a little hole in it, which should align with the fuel line) this makes sense, I'm going to try to align them tomorrow. any other suggestions?How did I mess up changing my fuel filter?
Did you change plugs? If you dumped that store bought cleaner in you may of fouled plugs sobad they re not getting electric from wires. Check wires and see if getting ignition nd if it is then check plugs. It is hard to mess up filter.

1997 ford ranger fuel filter?
i have a 97 ford ranger that im changing the fuel filter on i have from the tank to the filter changed but cant get from the filter to the engine hose off how do i do it1997 ford ranger fuel filter?
If you are referring to the steel connector style (instead of the plastic clip like you would have on the back, which you can snap off with a screwdriver and replace with the ones supplied in the new filter package), there is a special tool required. It looks like a pair of scissors, and usually comes with 5/16 and 3/8 tube sizes on either end. Most auto parts stores carry it, and should know the tool if you ask them for %26quot;the special tool for Ford fuel filters%26quot;. Slip it over the filter end, slide it into the steel connector, wiggle and swear a bit, and eventually it will disconnect. They can be frustrating, but they eventually come loose. I promise.1997 ford ranger fuel filter?
ASE is right on. Here's an article showing the tool and the procedure for changing the filter. The article shows an F-150, but it's the same principle. Hope this helps.get time from datetime campaigning and advertising

Help, 7.3 liter fuel filter changed now I have problems.?
I recently changed the fuel filter on my 2001 7.3 liter power-stroke and now the motor is running as if it has a miss, little to know power, is idling rough and the service engine soon light is now on. What could cause this, how do I fix it?Help, 7.3 liter fuel filter changed now I have problems.?
Changing the fuel filter more than likely has NOTHING to do with the problem you are experiencing now. And yes, you are correct in your statement that it does NOT have to be bled after fuel filter replacement since these engines use HIGH PRESSURE engine oil to control fuel delivery. This is why regular engine oil changes are EXTREMELY crucial on these particular engines. It sounds as though you have an injector dropping off, and/or a cylinder is not contributing. You'll need to have it scanned for DTCs to determine the problem area first and foremost. A generic %26quot;code reader%26quot; will probably not suffice, as you may end up needing to run a KOER cylinder contribution test as well as a KOEO injector buzz test to determine the cause of your symptom by the sounds of things. Common problem areas on 7.3L engines are burned out UVC wire harnesses and water intrusion into the IDM causing its failure. You'll need to have this diagnosed by an EXPERIENCED tech to solve your issue. Hope this helps.
ADDED: DO NOT use epoxy or silicone to seal the cap. Doing so will result in damage to your HEUI injectors! At about $600 EACH, I highly doubt you would want to be replacing too many of them.Help, 7.3 liter fuel filter changed now I have problems.?
check the hoses. You may have knocked one off.Help, 7.3 liter fuel filter changed now I have problems.?
Did you purge the fuel injection system of air? Doesn't sound like it!Help, 7.3 liter fuel filter changed now I have problems.?
I believe this is a diesel right? If so when you replace your fuel filter you have to fill the filter up with diesel before you install it.
Try that out and it should fix the problem.Help, 7.3 liter fuel filter changed now I have problems.?

Check the rubber o ring around the cap. Also let it run and air will be pushed out of the system. To turn off engine light you have to clear the computer.Help, 7.3 liter fuel filter changed now I have problems.?
sounds like you nicked one of the o-ring seals for the cap and it is sucking air. Who every told you to use epoxy around the cap should never in there life touch a car let alone work on one

2003 Chevy Suburban; changing the fuel filter, how?
My engine dies out when it needs additional fuel to get over bridges and overpasses. It acts like it's starving for fuel; so I think I will start by changing the fuel filter. Where do I locate the fuel filter on the vehicle, and how difficult will it be to change it?2003 Chevy Suburban; changing the fuel filter, how?
Stay safe.. take it to a reputable service garage or better ..your Chevy dealership. A few bucks spent wisely can save you gas mileage and possible hundreds more if you foul up something major as you try to change this filter.
Who knows??? Your engine might need tuning or even diagnostics.2003 Chevy Suburban; changing the fuel filter, how?
look under your vehicle on the drivers side by the frame, it should be a round filter and theres 2 lines you have to take off, but make sure you releave the pressure first, by taking off the gas cap.2003 Chevy Suburban; changing the fuel filter, how?
Its easy, its below the drivers side, its located on the frame.It will be probably below the back door. it has one fuel line %26quot;metal tubing' running into one side and out the the other. Its about the size of your fist.2003 Chevy Suburban; changing the fuel filter, how?
it is located along the inside of the drivers side frame rail, to change it you only need a couple of wrenches, just try to avoid getting sprayed with the initial fuel pressure release.2003 Chevy Suburban; changing the fuel filter, how?
Follow the fuel line from the fuel tank towards the engine till you see a soda can sized canister , it should have a metal strap around it holding it to the frame. The lines are under pressure so run the truck then pull the fuel pump fuse while its still running. Use line wrenches so you don't round down the fittings on the fuel lines. Some gas will drip out so do this in a well ventilated area. Its not hard to change but it might be hard to get off, spray some penetrating oil( PB Blaster) on it to dissolve any rust around the fittings. Install the new fuel filter ( arrow pionting towards the engine), replace the fuel pump fuse and start it up and check for leaks. The fuel filter might be about $15.00 dollars. If you can't find it...I have heard of some cars/trucks that do have the fuel filter in the fuel tank, thats not a job for most car/truck owners.2003 Chevy Suburban; changing the fuel filter, how?
Ans 1 is correct. 15mm wrench needed.

How do you change a in-line fuel filter on a 67' Buick lesabre?
There are 2 bolts, a large one and a small one, the largest connected to my carb. and the smallest to the metal fuel line.
How do I get these disconnected without bending my fuel line?How do you change a in-line fuel filter on a 67%26039; Buick lesabre?
hold the big nut with one wrench while you use another wrench to loosen your fuel line.How do you change a in-line fuel filter on a 67%26039; Buick lesabre?
with two tools one to hold the back one one to turn the front one... one will screw out you can also hold the front one and trun out the back one but you have to break it loose before replacing it.. i always broke the back one loose then hold the front one and twist it back and forth a few times you have to work it easy but it will come off.... and then there is the old way of doing it .. cut the medal line then un screw it and just put a rubber hose in placeHow do you change a in-line fuel filter on a 67%26039; Buick lesabre?
hold the largest one with a wrench and turn the smaller one, use a wrench that fits properly and preferably a line wrench if you have one, they are soft metal and strip easily, you may have to wiggle the smaller one back and forth when it comes loose so it spins on the fuel line and doesn't try to twist it. They fuel line will have some give to it so it bends a little to get it clear of the carb.
