2001 Mazda 121 Metro shades fuel / petrol problem - engine acceleration cutting out
zhlédnutí 7KPřed 6 lety
2001 Mazda 121 Metro shades. Vehicle cutting in and out at high speeds. Runs ok on idle but when driven at various speeds the engine tries to cut out until you take your foot off the accelerator. Either there is not enough fuel in the engine or not enough air? First I changed the fuel filter which was not too bad. The fuel seemed to flow ok when disconnected but unable to tell when connected as...

Bloody legend! 😅
You are a real savior man. I had the same issue and was cracking my head after checking all the fuses.
That’s why I did the video as I missed the faulty fuse in front of my eyes.
thanks bro uv saved me today solenoid starter cable was not in his play and boom the fuse expload
Your welcome brother
Great job 👍
Thanks You ,horn relay ?
Thank you so much for your info...But did your pilot light stay on after all your hard work???
Nice video sir, do he has a groun signal when you test it by test light?
спасибо у меня на Toyota Hiace 206. такой же предохранитель сгорел.
Hi there. Where did you buy the thermostat?
Just googled the plumbing suppliers near me. Bought it from a bloke in Flemington, can’t remember who, been years.
Hello everyone where can really get that manual book Mr...
Que es un please
Thank you very much bro i have same issue also🙏
Unless you have air bubble in the caulking tube.
You went to all that trouble. And didn't have the sense to take it out of the hole . And You could of purchased a small slab and placed over opening with a few bricks for extra support if need be. But in saying, your limited in experience to tool usage to repairs. Great that you made the effort to give it a go. And your outcome succeeded. You got it working by elimination of replacing parts. At least there new know. But all said limited experience and playing with gas connections may seem easy. But a mistake can occur due to inexperience. Tape does not always work for total sealing on gas if unexperianced to things. May require a thread sealant for certainty. Dont play with gas as you seem inexperienced to proper repairs. As I said you gave it a good go and operating. If water leaks its water no harm it is seen. If a gas leakage occurs it can't be evident like a water leakage and can cause a dangerous outcome. Its great you showed people your attempt . But be careful as inexperience can cost serious dangers to you and others.
2007 Prius... YOUR VIDEO SHOWS A CLOSE-UP SO I CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE FUSIBLE LINKS...😅 THANK YOU FOR THE CLOSE-UP🎉 AWESOME BROTHER
I need the name of the fuse so I can order it please....all the auto store saying I need to remove it and Carry it for reference....or do you have a part #
Sorry for the delay just saw your message. I bought it from a 4wd spare parts. Description- N Fusible link block type Hilux KUN26/16 GP no: 82620-71012 $64AUD. Hope this helps, good luck.
Thanks alot have the same issue with my 2009 Hiace bus.
Well done Sir ! Well done
Thank you for your kind information
Thanks. My parents HWS pilot stopped working after 12-13 years. Couldn't get the pilot light to stay on. I will try to fix it tomorrow
Had to remove the gas controller switch. Got a local plumber to do it. Big name plumbers wanted to replace the whole unit so they can charge $2k... Got it replaced and fixed for a fraction of the cost!
Great job, help me a lot to understand how to do the job.
Good demonstration video,well done!??
Thanks bro, I have the same issue on my hilux
lol its not a nozzle cleaner its a seal popper
This is literally a 20-30min job for a plumber, you don't need to drain the tank, the reason it wouldn't drain when u cut the hot outlet pipe is because you hadn't de pressured the cylinder, simply open a hot tap in side or pull the PTR valve to drain it, even tho you don't need to change that valve, maybe ask a plumber mate next time and save you 9hrs of trouble 😆
Annoying is putting it mildly. Mine does the same thing. I did the same thing but maybe I didn’t bend the wheel in far enough. I’ll give it another try. Great video thanks.
Hi, I know you've sold it since but I have one and I am having trouble finding where the cabin air filter is located. Do you know? Thanks
Not sure about the Mazda 121, but cabin filters are normally hidden under the dash on the passenger side behind the glove box. Good luck.
Appreciated!
Got the exact same one from Amazon for 20 bucks. I like it.
Update on my Aquamax 390 read my previous post. After this hack it worked for two months then gradually died. Worked for about 20 years had a plumber come out replaced all major components and now it works like new, plumber said we should get another 15 to 20 years all for $600 AUD instead of $1700.
My Aquamax 390 was playing up for years going out on a regular basis so I removed the front cover left it off and has not gone out in 2 months.
Thanks for making this clip. Seeing you run through the whole process made it so easy when I had to replace my fuel pump. It also saved me pulling the whole tank out . Jobs done and the little rocket lives again. Cheers
Dude I was ready to give up I tried everything and was about waste money on someone who would probably rip me off then. .........I SAW YOUR VIDEO AND DID WHAT YOU DID AND YAAAAHOOOO!I've nailed my entire family to the roof!!!your awesome thank you thank you thankyou soooooooo much!
Glad I could help. Thanks for appreciating. Hope you brought your family down from the ceiling 🤣
Quick! Get it some drip!
Thank you very much for all the examples in this video. Will definitely give this a go.
Your welcome 🙏
Thank you for this. Not that it solved my problem, but it gave me sufficient information to see that I could not solve it on my own. THANK YOU.
thank you!
thank you for the video, the only problem i had was undoing the screw that holds the pump in, had to use a impact screw driver to loosen it,
Thank you so much for the review! We're so happy you like our guns.
Thanks very much for the video. It's a big help
To drain water unit you open the expansion control valve so that air can flow into the tank and allow the water to flow out of the hot water outlet.
hello, i am a amazon seller, would you like to rate my product ?
Good informative video - even though you went through all that hassle, still better than calling out someone else to do it for you.
But hoover are consumptive machine what i see on CZcams
Kind of I hate these kind of washing machines because they are really big and the water consumption of them is really high so you can search for Hoover Link 10 kg washing machine but also Hoovers are not safety
Making that tool is not necessary. If you go to Bunnings and buy a Kinetic brand 15mm x 150mm galvanised pipe (threaded) from the plumbing section (About $6 AUD), you can screw it into the gas inlet on the left, after removing the copper pipe and brass fitting. In order to feed it in I went through opening that the copper gas pipe goes in to from outside the unit. I could do this by disconnecting and taking out the pipe above the gas stop cock. I used slight down pressure on the gal pipe with my foot which unstuck it and allowed me to turn it 180 degrees. I unscrewed the gal pipe and was then able to continue turning the gas controller until it came out (I used adjustable grips to assist with turning it, gripping on the small rectangular block of the gas inlet). I had the new gas controller with plumbers tape ready to go and for whatever reason I was able to put the new one in with minimal water coming out of the tank. I had already taken out the gas burner by undoing the thermocouple (small pipe on the left), then the small pipe on the opposite side and then the large one in the middle last before removing the whole burner by taking out the one small screw at the bottom holding it in. After those pipes were disconnected I only had to pull out the connection on the piezo igniter to get it all out. Obviously use soapy water to test your gas connections for leaks. I used yellow gas plumbers tape on the threads. The whole process took about 40 minutes. The mistake I did make however was removing the plastic from around the copper sensors at the back of the new controller. The old factory one I took out still had the plastic attached. Hope this helps. Good video.
Thanks for the thorough post and tip.
hello , ive got power problem cutting in and out , just got a second hand carbie , the engine is getting flooded with fuel until it comes out the tail pipe, ive just ordered a new fuel pump, the petrol in the tank was filthy and old and got drained out ,, car now will not start and flooding the engine with petrol. can anyone help please ?????
Nice vid mate. Big help. I ended up using a wood bench vice to remove the gas control valve instead of welding up a tool. Worked beautifully. Cheers
Thank you! so hard to find info of this model. Just one question, where does the external fuel filter is located?
Hi Gus, not sure about the external fuel filter and I cannot check for you as I already sold the car. It shouldn’t be too hard to find if it has one? Start at the engine bay and follow the fuel line from the carburettor area, should be an inline filter? It may not have one for this model? All the best. Manny
How do you unplug the connector plug from the fuel pump?? I cant seem to unplug it
It’s been awhile and I sold the car. Reviewing my video, appears you may need to press the part that sticks out on the side? Most connectors requires pressing the sides with your fingertips and wiggling it out. Give that a go or perhaps use a screwdriver? Can’t be 100% sure until I see one again. All the best.
@@filodiyer2775 its ok i figured it out by pressing down on the side of it and i easily unplugged it after that, thanks
