Good job. Apprecuate your effort specially sharing this informative video of yours. I didn't read all the comments but saw one relared to fuel filter location. ▪︎I believe all here are having good intentions fir each of our comments. But you are right Samara, it's also mentioned in the captioned title. GOD bless all!
Muito obrigado, consegui consertar o meu picanto, ate o marcador de combustivel voltou a funcionar e o quando chega a reserta agora o carro avisa , valeu pela di ca., pessoal funciona.
after discussing with electrical engineer and much searching in the network: during this kind of repair what could be dangerous, would be to have static electricity on you and touch the chassis after having pulled out the pump or before replacing. In such a case, in theory, a spark next to the fuel or fuel vapor would cause fire. However in practice this is almost impossible because in order to pull the pump out you' ve already touched the car chassis so you get the same potential with it and same potential=no voltage drop=no spark . During replacing the pump, may be there is a higher risk since somebody holding static electricity could get in the car without touching any metal part of it and touch first the chassis next to the pump... Wheather the negative pole is on the battery or not, doesn't affect anything...unless you have a 12v cable exposed next to the pump, something very difficult...In addition, service personnell working at fuel enviroment during repairs wear a grounding strap on their wrist attouched to the chassis to be safe 100%...I will insert this to my video...Anyway thanks for your comment...
Is easy remove the pump dissemble all them parts. Whole new ballgame puting all back. Thats where the majic is. I have ruined many things along the way but i had to to learn.
For a Kia picanto 1.1 petrol 2007 this is not a fuel filter video, it's of pump change. The fuel filter is located underneath the car. You've been warned. I spent 2 1/2 hours getting out and putting back in the pump. For nothing. Good video for a pump change. PUMP CHANGE ONLY. NOT FUEL FILTER VIDEO.
