Budget FUEL PUMP Upgrade / Replacement (BA, BF & FG Falcons) | TURBO Your NA Barra Pt 3 

Great episode! I have a wagon and I expect things will be different a bit, probably. But the pump out of the car info is just as important. It's great that you are giving prices. When you watch other channels they tell you what you need but it makes it less fun discovering how expensive the stuff they use is because they generally have sponsors. Your episodes have useful information too. Very happy that I subscribed. So much so I even like them when they are finished :D

Awsome video didn't know could do this unfounchemtly when i did mine was factory one but axderdently pinched seal had leak but fixed that been sweet ever since looking forward next video really enjoyed this one awsome job mate

Shit hot Browney great way to start another lockdown day🍻👍 Congrats on the 10k milestone too!!!!

Loving it mate, I got a turbo ute so not everything applies but the stuff that does is priceless.

This video surely should push it over the 10 K mark bro anyhow congratulations 👌🏼

Great video mate, a little tip for others, no need to take return hose off, it moves enough to get pump out.

this is really insightful honestly i love it great work lad Aussie Chrisfix

Hey man got my turbo t-shirt the other day, good quality and good fit as well. Also yay someone that knows the correct order to do battery cables lol Another great video thanks man!

Thanks for doing this video! I was stuck on how to get the corrugated hoses off, go the hairdryer :)

Thank you very much another upgrade I’m willing to do

Great video mate. I’ve recently installed a new fuel pump and filter and ever since then the check engine lights been on. I’ve had it looked at and the injectors were full of gunk must’ve been pushing too much fuel through. Currently waiting on a regulator in the mail as I think the current one might be faulty hopefully that does the trick 👍🏼

Another great video mate

Great video mate!!👍,I actually used a walbro 460 knockoff $29 in my XG to work with the 660cc injectors & 4 bar F6 fuel reg,but this was more just to get it running & will get a better one before going to the track. Does work though-not sure on reliability though😏

another great video Browney. I initially did just the pump like you before getting mine tuned and can confirm that pump will support 300rwkw as thats what my car has. I get the dreaded fuel cut when on the dragstrip and have bought the big pot which will hopefully fix that. definitely get fuel cut with under half a tank in fact even on half so be sure to be slightly over half a tank when on the strip. downside to that is you are carrying maybe 50 extra kgs with all that fuel in the tank. when the dragstrip opens again i will let you know how the big pot works out with under half a tank.

Great content there. Cheers.

remember to get part number 341 not the other one correct. is this same for fitting into my fg falcon?

Oh the old crimp connectors syndrome can't beat soldering with heat shrink sleeves but you work with what you have anyway nice job Browney

Did this and used the link to buy it but it seems the new one is making the car stall which i checked cables and look over it as I took it out for the second time and can't find the problem so I put the old one back in and it works fine again... I'm using a 2004 ford falcon ba xt mk2

The old pump sounds just like the new Bosch 044 I fitted to my Subaru.

Hope your misses doesn't watch your vids you might get a slap😂great vid mate really informative 👍

Thankyou

This is a great video for both people wanting to upgrade or simply needing to replace the stock pump. Nice one. I spotted a Ryobi shoplight on the bench Browney, are they any good? I use One+ tools too so already have plenty of batteries.

Not sure if it is in the comments but there is a restrictor in the bottom of the return. Pop the black piece off underneath and drill out the hole size. If you dont, you may have trouble setting fuel rail pressure with aftermarket regs.

Sudden fuel blockage or other from fuel pump means am doing a pump changeover on 2008 FG which i am largely assuming is very similar to this BA. Relay box diagnosis was is no earth or power being sensed from the pump... is this normal? Not getting any fuel into the system to turn the engine over in the first place which also means I cannot syphon or run low the 3/4 full tank !!! I have noticed that all videos shoot over the removal of the retaining ring (probably as it may seem very easy) but to the first time novice, it has me baffled and ring is NOT budging.... Help!

I would highly recommend that you drive till near empty I learned that the hard way when I didn’t realise that the project car had a full tank Very messy 😂

Nice job Browney..loved it.. Just a quick question is the pump located in the same place in the BA wagon and do i need to do anything differently...cheers john...Willaura😎

When I rev my car sometimes it turns off anyone know the issue

Awesome Video ! What happened to the driver side rear door ? @15:55

Hi Browney! You base in NSW?

I like the FG Seats in the car

It's best not to bench test a old fuel pump. Whilst it is in fuel the commutator doesn't spark and theres not enough air to ignite. But in the open with the right air fuel ratio and the brushes arcing could cause a explosion.

Hay Browny did u have to go to ford to get the a.c. and radio put back on ?

Hey Brownie. Where did you get the el, au polished rocker cover? Or did you polish it up yourself

Say if I put the 255 in would I need to take it to get tuned for the new flow or can it read how much fuel flow there is and adjust for it?

To primer it put your foot flat on the gas and turn the key it will only crank

Dude, next thing to change is the trans, to ZF6, that would be a huge upgrade.

I have recently removed the factory tank. So i can run a fuel cell in the boot. And i tell ya now Removal of fuel tank is a huge f##k around. Your have. To drop entire rear cradle just to get tank out as top of tank is sandwiched between the top of cradle n bottom of car floor

If you want to make a second part to this in a Ute version I have one available seeming as I’m just being lazy 😂

I have to turn the key on and off three times before starting What would be the issue?

Hey Browney, thanks for the vid. I did the same in my late BF MKII XR6, dropping in a Walbro 255 to replace a dying, I assume, Delphi pump in the original assembly.. Did you experience noticeably louder pump noise after the swap out? Mine has a noticeably louder whine than the original, even with the pump in the dampening sleeve that comes with the kit. Other than that, it seems to be working fine. I noticed a few others have experienced the same noise with the Walbro pumps, some even opting to swap them out for quieter options. Something to be aware of I suppose. Also, for those of your viewers with late BF's (09/2007 and onward) and FG's considering this job, the upgraded retaining ring on the tank is a PITA to remove without a special tool, which I found hard to find, and the ones I did find were expensive for a one time use. It's held in place by 6 locking tabs around the retaining ring, that unlock when turned counter-clockwise. To remove it, I ended up carefully prying open the little tabs ever-so-slightly to relieve some downward pressure, and then used two large flat head screwdrivers held in opposing outer notches with a breaker bar in between them for leverage. Get a mate to hold the screwdrivers tightly while you carefully turn the breaker bar. Total hack job but it worked. Reverse proceedure to close. Also, I found the convoluted tubing inside the assembly to be a nighmare to get off intact, even with heat, and would definitely recommend ordering two new ones when you order the pump, as the originals are more likely to get damaged during removal. The 120mm ones I needed cost about $11 each. I ordered the pump and tubes from TI Performance in Melbourne, all up came to $130, which as mentioned, is a significant saving compared to dropping in a new assembly. All the best. Cheers.

you cant put FG ford in your title as the fuel pump lid doesnt just unscrew like the ba bf, they need a different type removal, either a special tool or the good old flatnose screw driver and hamer job to try unscrew the pump ring that locks it in place

Yeah big B

I don't know how the hell the basket comes off, have watched over 10 times, clips open try aned move the hose, will not budge, there must be something else clipping it in

Be prepared . Buy replacement flexi hoses before you start as when removing them they get chewed up even using a hair dryer . Then using screw drivers etc risks a serious crack to the brittle plastic hose barbs . Hose removal tools were useless and dont work as advertised so bear with it and use your fingers . Hurts but doesn't damage the barb .These were the problems we faced and solved when we followed this video . Very helpful video but spend 20 dollars and buy the flixi and just cut the old hoses off .

JUST INSTALLED A 255 (2011 XR6T) WITH NEW FUEL FILTER , GO TO START HER UP AND SHE BARELY RUNS ! IDLES LIKE A BAG OF SHIT , NOT HUGE ONES OR OFTEN BUT LIL SORTA BACKFIRES AS SHES STRUGGLING JUST TO RUN ......IDEAS ??? AND NO THE FILTER ISNT ON BACKWARDS .)

Got my Territory Turbo pump done 455lph an they give it back to me With the Gauge not working I gave them the car with Under a quarter of a tank left when I got back from them my fuel gauge was working 100% went around to PB to fill it up an the gauge stayed the same The Gauge will only go up to half a tank if that I took her back to them And they Looked With the computer Then tried to say it was Afiel pump assembly which was old lol Big head f--k And I had them installed 1000cc injectors turbo oil line and a Tuning Altogether at the same timeEventually found A receipt in the side of my chair in the car lol for a $100 to hire the Dino Which they charged me $300 +1250 Tuning and they are a big shop in Victoria That will gonna charge me $600 to fix the gauge lol I did not take it back The Third time Now every time I feel that my tank I have to reset and make sure it's always topped up Going to get fixed soon
