i enjoyed your simplistic view and really like the resistor tool, however you need to understand that the rail is a manifold so the pressure and flow are equal at the inlet from pump and all the injector outlets. the rails large volume is to act as an accumulator to negate the pressure spikes during various injection events. great video. thanks

Excellent video you need more subs as I like the way you explain things.thanks look forward to more.

Thanks for the interesting video . Another item worth checking when chasing poor starting aand running issues on the Ranger is the micro fine filter in the banjo bolt at the HP fuel pump inlet. They are difficult to clean effectively so replacement may be a better option. Thanks again.

I have a 2002 Mazda Bounty b2500 and even after replacing the main fuel filter, it still wouldn't rev above 2500rpm. Turns out the problem was the mini basket fuel filter you mention under the banjo bolt was clogged. Removed it and cleaned it up and the ute now runs like a dream. I'd be surprised if many people know about this filter, even a lot of mechanics don't. An easy 10 minute thing to check and fix. Cheers

Very informative! I have ford 2014 same engine that your fixing, crank but no start, when i open the high pressure line and rail there is no fuelat all. Is it posible that my High Pressure pump is broken? TIA

Thanks

nice

You can check the high pressure pump with a mechanical injector also

Cheers Mate Actually the fuel rail return regulator is what I nearly always go to first if the engine wont start and I suspect low pressure . Super common problem with a multitude of engine fuel systems in my experience and I even have spare blanking plugs in me box for this reason. This is only for testing and to confirm where the faults are and get the clients home scenarios till further testing and repairs can be performed . In the extreme fuel mods game, for extra power this regulator is often replaced with a simple plug so the tuners can bump the pressure to the max in a effort to gain power without the std regulator blowing. Great in depth video but the engine runs with you trying to talk was too much to bear and had to turn down the sound but I could guess and work out what you were saying. Maybe do a re edit to the video and do a voice over with the engine running clips. Also with these BT50's another hard and sometimes very hard starting issue is an apparent crank and cam sensor fault that is not actually at fault. The crank and cam sensors show up as codes and if read with live view often show up with bad data but once the engine is started , the engine runs and performs properly as well as true and correct live data. The true cause of this can sometimes be a bad starter which is commonly noted by trades people in the know , but I have found in most cases the earth and positive cables are shot at the starter and even 3-4" away from the starter and do not show any apparent visual signs of damage or heat. The cables are "Micky Mouse"in my opinion and I replace them with decent properly spec cable and soldered terminals. I just run new battery cables from battery to starter as well as a decent separate earth to the engine block The replacement makes the engine start like never before.

@jayshstha3552

Hi Darren please don't forget to subscribe. And to answer your question, because of pressure loss from leaking releif valve, the ecu is not turning the injectors on while cranking. Ecu won't fire injectors when there is not enough pressure in the rail. So the back leak return line will not have any fuel coming out if the injectors aren't turned on. I know it's little complicated but if you goggle how diesel injector works, you will know what I'm talking about. Just remember no injector turn on then no back flow. Cheers.

My ranger starts but won't rev over 2300 and shows a MAF sensor fault but I changed it and still no good

did you replace the whole high pressure fuel rail? can you test pressure or starting the engine by plugging off the fuel return line?

@a1mechanicaloakey639

3 жыл бұрын

Yes whole thing. I couldn't buy just the valve locally. If there is leak I don't think there anything you can use to hold the pressure. It's going to blow the hose off. But you shouldn't see any fuel there at all time if the system is normal.

I have a Mazda 2011 2.5l diesel turbo. I watched this helpful video & have a very similar situation (very little fuel coming out the return line, fuel at primer pump & fuel comes out when I hand pump it, fuel coming out injector line 1 when cranking) but the difference is when I spray the Autostart in the intercooler inlet it starts but stops after I stop spraying!! I feel it’s a fuel pressure issue? If it was injectors it wouldn’t start?? If it was in tank fuel pump there wouldn’t be fuel coming out the fuel rail? Could it be anything else? Kind Regards Vic

If the fuel not coming out of injection pump then more than likely pump is bad or chain or belt drive system. But you have to know what you doing because pump doesn't have lot of volume so could be mistaken for no fuel. There's high pressure though. It's a job for professionals.

If you are going to do a live repair, please don't say you found something off-camera, it defeats the purpose of a very long video. Pulling an injector connector is a part of a good quick diagnosis, what can it hurt, what do people say, why it's bad? Hydrolock, how many injectors spray full time when the tip is blown out or when they leak, don't injectors have a return spring built in to default them to the closed position, the electricity does not close it, it only opens a solenoid which is what an injector is in reality, the spring closes it with help from fuel pressure pushing in the close direction also, this is how you know by viewing on a scope if the spring is broken inside, WTF people. Also mate, if you zoom in on a single or a few amp ramp waveforms on one screen you will see the pintle opening in the injector as this has diagnostic value along with the previously mentioned, spring movement time as a broken spring will allow the pintle to open sooner or advanced or to the left of a normal pintle opening time. Of course, you may not have any pintle movement at all showing a working electrically but not mechanically injector. While watching the video I noticed that your scan tool does an auto-adjust depending on what it's actually measuring, kpa or mpa, in the beginning, there was some confusion, I think that is cleared up now as your tool can only output 3 digits LOL. Always use your battery as your ground 99% of the time, the battery is ground, all other ground electrons flow back to the battery and the battery also acts as a capacitor and helps to smooth out any noise you may have on the scope trace, as mentioned before on another one of your videos, sometimes noise is a good thing. The signal wire does not have a 5VRef, it's a 5V bias voltage for the ECU to monitor for a broken wire, if broken or shorted you should get a code for this reason. This is why you don't test connectors unplugged and unloaded. You have a 4 channel scope, I would also monitor the ground wire for ground loss problems, just in case. Actually, a Voltage Drop problem of more than 0.1V. Your camera is nice and you use the zoom but you keep bumping into the tripod many times, I would think you can move it further away and zoom into your work? I am thinking about it at 55:00, the quick start spray gets it to start because the engine spins faster during cranking as the spray explodes in the cylinders one and all, momentarily taking the place of good fuel pressure with proper fuel delivery, helping with cranking speed and your weak battery is taken out of the picture?? Thank you for the tutorial, I think when I get a job like this I will remove all rubber return/bypass hoses and look for a leak like that on step number ONE. Another thumbs up mate. What we did not see in the video and I must assume you inspected #2 fuel injector amp wave as I saw the harness was also cut open and maybe there was no injector pulse during the no start since the fuel pressure was too low. I am also thinking that you can plug off the pressure relief return hose with a metal braided hose set up to see if the motor will start by blocking off this leaking fuel??? Is there also a way to make a plug for a fitting back there also? I love this software you have to swap from one video clip to another clip, can I ask where did you get this? I can also see that you edited your video and put scenes in a different order from what you recorded them so I know you take extra time to put together a good show, much appreciated. spiderwebuntangled@gmail.com

On the question on can we block off the return relief. Answer on this car is no because its under really high pressure so normal hose and clamp will not hold. Depends on the setup on the relief valve, it has to be metal screw fitting in order to block it off. The video editing software I use is filmora. Thanks you
