Doogie2905 Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 I have an 06 Corolla and have just been servicing it. It has one of those fuel filters that is apart of the pump assembly under the back seat. As the manual said I need to change this after 50,000km's I have done this but now the fuel is not running down the lines into the injectors. Was just wondering if anyone has had any similar issues and if anyone was able to resolve their issue as at the moment I am unable to start the car.

B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Is it backwards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) Just re read your first post. Do you mean under the back seat inside the cabin???? I assumed all fuel lines and components have to be exterior? Edited January 29, 2012 by B.L.Z.BUB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doogie2905 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 On this model of the Corolla the fuel filter is actually apart of the fuel pump assembly and is in the fuel tank itself. You have to take the back seat out to be able to get to it and then take the whole assembly out and apart to change the filter. Now that I have put it back in it seems fuel is running down the line but not all the way to the injectors and I have taken it out and apart again but still cannot see anything wrong with the assembly and the lines aren't blocked so I am a bit stumped. Also the pump is still working because it is pumping fuel out of the assembly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Ahh OK yeah I just did some googling. Have you tried to put the old one on and see if it works with that and eliminate a faulty replacement part? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doogie2905 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Yeah, it's not the new filter. Just from the fact the fuel wont go all the way down the line I am starting to think it might be the pump itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Does the pump need to be primed in some way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doogie2905 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Not from what the manual says. But the pump is still the same its' only the filter I changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Pump still turning on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19914afc Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Left an o ring out or was an o ring swollen? there is one we replace at work when we replace the filter not necessary but just a precaution. If your local I could pop round and have a look if you want mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
