Guest Tony95XE Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 I changed my fuel filter last weekend and now when i start my path it turns over alot before starting and after it starts its idleing at 500 to 600 rpms when it used to idle around 1000. So when i pull out i have to push on the gas harder or ill stall. I put the fuel filter in the proper way, it didnt have arrows but had in and out written on it and i installed right, i made sure both clamps were tight on the hoses and i have no clue what i did to it lol. Any ideas?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 It may be a bad fuel filter. Try a different one. Fuel should be coming IN through the bottom and OUT thru the top, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tony95XE Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 Yea in from the tank out to the engine, so i guess I should put another one on and see what happens. i did take the negitive terminal off the battery, think it might have something to do with the ecu reseting?

Guest Tony95XE Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 Well I put a different feul filter on and have the same problem low idle and turns over alot before starting. I didnt have any problems at all before changing it the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatterHorn Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 fuel pressure problem most likely ... regulator may be shot ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tony95XE Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 yeah sounds right because when i put the first filter on the gas still shot out even after i pulled the fuse and let it die. this second time it just dripped out. But could it have been something i did when changing the filter. Ive never changed one before and think its wierd that something else died at the same time i changed the filter cause i had no problems before. Sorry if im asking simple questions but this is all a learning experiance for me -study- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
