Tony Gonzalez says:

Project garage, I replaced my fuel pump thinking it was that for a 2002
silverado 5.3 the truck does the same thing as the begining of the vid

@ghostofchicken Nice!

Databamse says:

I removed my gas tank from the car, why is my car still running without a
gas tank, I drove my car from California to Texas without a gas tank. Why
is this possible?

this……i hope i dont spill ALOT of gas! lol

Javier Huerta-Ramirez Jr. says:

my motor shakes a lot, could it be that i have dirty injectors or dirty
fuel pump?

simien3691 says:

yo u might need some motor mounts

Project Garage says:

@StreetRunnazz No problem man!

Bhalakubhak says:

learyan says:

i just did mines! thx bro.. do u believe that it increases the mpgallon?

Abraham2nds says:

easy way: 1: wait overnight so all the fuel would run back down. when car
is off power is off/ 2. change. 3. be happy 😀

iworkforbudlight says:

SupaJohnful says:

thats a nice ka

Project Garage says:

Thanks! I get around 280-300 miles on a full tank. My MPG around town is a
consistent 20mpg. However, when I go on long highway drives, I get
something along the lines of 26mpg.

4:02 “Alright, so here’s the new fuel pump”

Project Garage says:

@yankeessuck309 Glad we could be of help. Its nice to see that the vids are
actually useful

Project Garage says:

@anonymousguitarguy Its just to relieve any pressure from the gas tank

Project Garage says:

it could be a number of things, need more info. Make a post on the project
garage facebook group and I’ll help the best I can!

Project Garage says:

Troll science!

Mac D says:

thanks dude, great job… re: clean up that fuel… and i like the trick to
lessen the pressure… crank it! great great job!!!

Project Garage says:

@zapserone No problem! Glad the video was useful 🙂

Project Garage says:

@chidiobi You probably need to crank it for a bit. If you ran it dry then
the fuel lines are most likely empty.

Matthew Towsley says:

U don’t no shot !

Jeff Lebowski says:

Thanx for the vid. bro. really helped…. just wondering….do you live
under a freeway or something, at times couldnt hear anything. Lol! Again
thanx for the help…

Duffman 305 says:

I checked my fpr and no gas came out so its ok. Has new spark plugs and
spark plug wire housing. idk what it could be.

DjWillis808 says:

@Bhalakubhak On my 99 200SX, it was on the firewall, near the driver’s side

Project Garage says:

@simien3691 Theres no “might” I definitely need new motor mounts haha

BLACKMQQN says:

know why you got ANY thumbs down. my be retards who couldn’t understand.
great video.

Victol2 says:

Hi, I was just wondering if you need to have your gas cap taken off for the
whole process.. or only until you empty the fuel from the lines? Thanks!

Kerim Seniseverim says:

thanks for the video dude…great help

Emmanuel Obi says:

hi, i have a 93 nissan sunny, few days ago i ran out of gas and when i
refilled the car won’t start again, can someone tell me what to do ?

jedsebastian says:

@ProjectGarageOnline hi man, i have been watching your videos and want to
ask if this principle applies to a diesel car? like taking the fuse out
first? or is it any different? thanks, i’m from england btw

zenki lee says:

Change your motor mounts dude, That motor’s shaking quite a bit when you
tried to start it

coog7896 says:

My pickup used to do that but it turned out to be a vacuum hose that had a
small hole in it. Once that was replaced, the shakes stopped and I could
feel that a little more power was regained.
