Great video. Spoke very well and clear. I cannot believe you removed the retainer clip with one hand and it didn’t break. I use two hands and still struggle with these things.
I love you brother I’m in California Los Angeles and I took my car to AutoZone and it showed up with antilock brake system powertrain system, and it showed up with left front wheel speed sensor brake pedal switch a lost communication with ECM battery voltage circuit voltage below threshold so many problems, but they were saying that the main problem could be the fuel system pressure too low and also brake sensor was another pop up but just was watching your video. I’m gonna change my part and I’m gonna get back to you.
Thank you for this video. I watched it a few times before replacing mine and it went super smooth and my car works great again. Only needed two tools. A socket wrench with a 10mm socket and an adjustable wrench. Took 5 minutes to replace.
Hello, I’m having the same issue. do you know the part number by chance? somebody was telling me to change the spark plugs. or the fuel pump. But everything you explained is happening, so I’ll try that first. Great video. Thanks for that info.
I bought a focus 2012 titanium manual 2.0... mark the code p0087 high fuel pressure rail system too low... change the spark plugs change the fuel pump... new... but change the rail fuel regulator I bought it used in junker the fault persists when I go slowly, fine, but if I step on it hard to run, it doesn't respond...
I am freaking out man, are you sure you didn't have my car?? Everything. I MEAN EVERYTHING wrong with that car was wrong in mine, the fuel pressure, the low tire pressure, the cranky right wheel
This video help me alot man appreciate the time you put in I... by the way what kind of scanner are you using? I'm thinking about getting one you recommend the one you have?
Hello!! I'm from Brazil and follow your channel! I have a Ford Focus 2016 titanium plus equipped with the same engine as this one, and I'm experiencing problems with failures, the car popping on the exhaust, accelerating, it crashes and fails... However, applying the scanner it does not show any errors. Replaced original ford spark plugs and coils. Did your focus have this same symptom?
I have a 2014 Ford focus and I ordered the pump on eBay and it came with the spring unattached and there's no way to put it on without some special tool.. it's direct from China purchased.. anyway if you know how to do that please let me know.. The second thing is I'm going to the junkyard pick and pull but what other years have the same fuel pump do you know?
Very insightful video man.... Im also having the same P0087 Fuel Rail Pressure Low problem now but Im wondering if there is a certain way to know whether the fault lies with the HP fuel pump or any Fuel Sensors? My symptoms are pretty much like yours, the long crank then revved up without pressing gas peddle before idling back under 1 & lack of power etc. I also have huge variances between the Desired & Actual Pressure readings. My guess is having huge variances in pressure readings tells me is a faulty HPFP and not the sensors right? Hope you or anyone else can help. Thanks
I was having the same p0087 code but now I have a p00c6 code. And an engine fault service now message on my display. And it won't even crank to get it to a dealership.
My engine was cutting out after driving it a while on my focus titanium I replaced the high-pressure fuel pump problem persisted. I however persisted by replacing the small fuel pressure sensor that plugs in in the screws it’s a small part I don’t remember the part number and after the third try with a used part problem went away and my car even has better compression. For this problem appears to start from the smallest part persist on the small part, and then move to the larger ones like the high-pressure fuel pump, then into the actual gas tank.
@@86282l I had an independent mechanic change the high pressure pump that is located on top of the engine and he broke that clip on that output gas line. That missing clip, holds the hose to the fuel pump outlet on the left side of the high pressure fuel pump, plugs into that. So I noticed when my car continued cutting out after driving for a good amount of time, parked, did my errand came back and cut out upon starting up, but the last time it actually spewed fuel all over and I smelled fuel, strong smell. Opened up the hood and that hose had come off! So, I had to make shift jam paper towels, wet so they dried hard, to hold the hose attached to the outlet hose part of the high pressure fuel pump. Drove to the junk yard and found the hose with intact clip, I needed that clip to lock that hose to the HPFP. Then, it held. BUT! I did not get the little gaskets, the hose is firmly, griped to the outlet BUT is still has play, and sometimes the cuttng out of fuel happens. SO, I need to reinstall the small gaskets fitting them onto that outlet valve part that the hose connects to to make a tight, firm attachment! I'lll try to re-write this, been busy. But that's what I mean by start small, in my case, it appears to a broken clip I didn't replace AND the gaskets, THREE OF THEM, that are rings that go onto that outlet valve coming out of the left side of the HPFP. Then if all that doesn't work, THEN you repalce the HPFP, and if you still have problems onto the to the larger parts like fuel injector line, and so on down the path. Hope that helps! Let me know, please what your problem is and if you resolved it! Them tiny parts are absolutely needed for a tight fuel vacuum seal!
i bought a OEM junkyard part from another ford it was good code reader gave me green light,10k miles after code reader is giving me P0087 with amber light...im guessing solenoid dies after 5 years
How has the after market HPFP worked for you? The brands i trust are running $600-1200, seeing what brand you went with to see if I should trust a cheaper one.
Gotcha, just got back from a junk yard all the ford focus had theirs stripped already. Thinking of buying a cheaper one and seeing how long it’ll last since it’s so easy to swap out

I have a question, I’ve been wondering about my ford focus 2014 se, every time I go to put gas it’s hard to start it up, I would have to press the gas once or twice and put it in drive for it to actually start up. Do you think having a low fuel pressure could be the issue? Or clogged gas filter? Because it only happens every time I put gas.
I’m having the same error code pop up but it went away, it’s still acting weird though, everytime I put gas it’ll get worse where it shuts off if I’m just like sitting in a parking lot with the car on, also if I have the air conditioner on it’ll do it worse but if I turn the air off it’s not as bad. I ordered the direct injection HPFP but I’m wondering if it could be anything else?
I have no check engine light battery at 10-12 volts swapped starter car started and it just hesitates to speed up and rpm’s won’t go past 2000rpms when pressing on the gas pedal by any chance would you know where the fuel filter is? I have 2017 ford focus se
Excellent video. I have a few questions, the fuel pump You bought is new or refurbished? And if it's refurbished, how its working right now? Still good? Or You change it again?
I have a 2017 ford focus, the same engine, I also have the same problem, I put the new fuel pressure pump on it and a week later it came back with the same problem.
@@mossyburg50 Today I replaced the high fuel pressure pump, fuel pressure sensor and fuel injector sensor, and so far it is running fine. I hope the problem has been resolved.
Having the same issue. Replaced the HPFP and still the same problem. Fuel pressure is fine. After driving I have to wait a few hours for it to cool down before I can drive it again without it stalling. No recalls on the vehicle. Any ideas as to what it could be?
i have a low fuel rail pressure code i hear the rear pump hum i recently took the hpfp out to diag it but i notice when i was going to put it back in i had to get the spring to push in to get it on
I just had this code come up yesterday, my gas level was similar to yours. Between the low quarter mark and empty. I first thought it was fuel related, like a deformed gas tank from the canister purge valve recall, but I thought it was supposed to throw a specific code for it. Anyways, after tanking it up the issue went away. So I'm not sure if it is the fuel tank or maybe the issue you described here. But maybe after letting it cool down it was fine? What do you think?
@Rattrap 73 Does it have the P0087 code? The only difference between mine and yours I think is that mine would crank, it just wouldn't start until eventually I got the code to come up. What I discovered was that if I let the car cool down for an hour, then I could restart and run it just fine. However, I was able to get it to happen again on a full tank of gas. So I realized it wasn't gas tank related. It was more temperature related, letting the car idle too long and get hot. This low pressure fuel sensor seemed to be the problem for mine. It's like it thinks it has too much pressure so it tells the fuel pump to stop sending fuel. From what I read the newer sensor had a hole drilled in it to let internal heat or pressure balance out so that it doesn't fail like that. Part Number CM-5250 (BU5Z-9F972-CA). The original older sensor ended in "BA" instead of "CA". The "CA" has the hole drilled in. I changed out my sensor, and let the car idle for a while and it didn't happen again.
@outwestjake no mine has a P00C6 code. And now just the "engine fault service now " on the display. But it won't crank or do anything. I should have an OBD2 scanner tomorrow and hopefully it gives me a better idea of what is exactly going on. I can hear the tank fuel pump humming when I turn on the key so I'm beginning to think it's not that anymore and it might be the high pressure pump under the hood along with something else.
@Rattrap 73 oh wow, that's interesting. If you don't mind, let me know how ya make out. I'm curious to know in case it ever happens to ours one day down the road. This car has quite a few random quarks and issues. But then it seems fine once it's fixed
@outwestjake I just checked mine and got P0882, P2872, and P287A all either having to do with the tcm. The first code says the tcm isn't getting the proper voltage or something like that and the other 2 are transmission clutch stuck or not able to go into reverse. Ford needs to make this right for everyone that has these models. I'm definitely calling my dealership Monday morning and if they don't wanna do anything I'll call Ford or an attorney. This is our only vehicle and I'm not gonna pay for something that is broken. I still have 12 payments left but I'm not sure if I can keep dumping money into this car.
I have a ford focus se that is just turning over the only codes is cam shaft sensor and the turbo is under boost. I’m at a standstill on what’s going on with it any ideas?
I got a mkz and got this code but I don’t know if it’s the pump or sensor. Car stalled out on me one day been binge watching videos to fix it tomorrow.
I have the same problem on my 2014 MKZ. Code P0087. Fuel Rail/System Pressure - Too Low. Stalls at low speeds and sometimes while idling. It’ll go days without stalling and then stall several times one day, then back to not stalling. It’s frustrating. I replaced the fuel rail sensor but it’s still stalling and idling rough. I don’t know if it’s a clogged fuel filter, or bad pump. Let me know if you solve the problem 👍🏼
@@Maverick.311 the stalling stopped when I replaced both sensors. I still got the p0087 still and now it misfires in second gear so I know it’s a fuel delivery problem. I can hear my high pressure fuel pump hum loudly so 9/10 it’s your pump ( on the motor )
@@JoeyCanoy-ux5uc you can get a cheap OBD2 scanner to check the codes on the car. Walmart has some. Auto parts stores do it for free if you can get it there
I'm having a similar issue with p0087... it shakes and stalls at idle when issue is prevelant.. usually after car is parked for the night the next morning it's fine. For a few days then again same issue
2 things. What OBD2 scanner is that? How hard is it to replace the fuel filter? And I bought my 2012 Focus in July and didn't drive it much. After 100 miles it started to struggle. Now I'm driving 150 miles a day and 6k miles later and 2 trips to the dealer, I can't drive it still. They replaced the Fuel Sensor then said it's the battery and other stuff not covered by the warranty. It can't get up hills or get up to speed onto the highway very well. Same P0087 code. How much of a pain is the fuel filter to replace? Figured I'd do that first, then the HPFP then the pump in the tank. Then it should all be new for a while with no problems. As long as one of those fixes the issue. If only the dealer would have just did that when I asked, since that's all covered.....
Can this pump create an intermittent ticking noise? I just picked up a manual 2014 with a frequent ticking noise from the area of this pump. Car has a bit of rough idle, is a bit lurchie at low rpms, also had to drive home in limp mode the other day and not sure why. No error codes or ck engine lights. I feel like it's a fueling issue in general.
@@L8R-HP thanks. took care of the basics already. just did oil, plugs and valve cover gasket changes. This ticking is wierd, and trying to diagnose things as I go.
Will yours rev above 2000 rpm Jason ? Got a customers Fiesta ecoboost in and it's fault coding low fuel rail pressure, the HP pump is ticking it's tits off and won't rev, only came in with a burst cylinder head gasket, now it's got this problem
@@31144 yeah, it still revs. Still drive it most everyday. Still has the previously described issue though. A bit more research suggests it could also be the cam follower under the HPFP. I think a diagnostic at the dealer will be in order soon.
Got a similar problem with a 14 plate 1.0 Ecoboost Fiesta, it wont rev above 2000 rpm and cranks for a while before starting, it came in with a burst head gasket (repaired) now it won't run properly, HP fuel pump is ticking its tits off and it's error coding P0087 but not engine management light, is it worth throwing a new HP pump at it ? Its only done 40K though 🤔
