    what car po ba ride mo?

    meron kasi fuel pump na nasa loob ng tangke at meron din pump na nasa engine like toyota 4k.

    kung yung nasa loob ng tangke, i agree dun sa unang post.... dagdagan mo ng gas yung car mo para me mahigop... pag ganun pa din at sa tingin mo hirap pa din siya, ipa pressure test mo para malaman kung pump going bad na... HTH

    This may be due to low fuel. If the fuel level is too low, it may not reach the fuel inlet inside the tank if the car exceeds a certain angle. At which point, no amount of suction from the fuel pump will cause fuel to flow.

    When the fuel-low indicator lights up, it means you have approximately 10 liters (+/- 3 liters) remaining. It is essential to fill up as soon as possible when you see the warning light.

    Your tank's low fuel condition is causing your problem. Your fuel pump sucks fuel from the center. So if your fuel is low, and the car is tilted, all the remaining fuel will flow to a side where it is beyond the reach of the fuel pump.

    Solution is to gas up before your fuel gets low. Example, keeping a minimum of 1/4 in your fuel tank will solve your problem.

    yes i agree. i make it a habit na at least above 1/4 palagi ang minimum fuel ko.

    I used to drive around with the fuel level just 1/4 or below it, eventually it killed my fuel pump.

    So if you don't want that kind of hassle better fill up on or before you reach 1/4.

    its better talaga na meron palagi gas para iwas abala pag tumirik.. besides, nakakahiya pa kasi me pambili ng car pero ala pambili ng gasolina...

    But I dont see any justifiable reason na pag less fuel, it will cause damage to the fuel pump. its probably true kung wala na gas ay naka ON pa ignition at continuous na umaandar yung pump or talagang pasira na yung pump... but as i see it, pag nawalan ng gas, sigurado mamamatay makina at yung ignition will be placed in its OFF position and therefore patay na din ang pump, which is the most logical result and thing to do... my cent..

    is it also possible na madiskarga ang batterya pag nasagad ang fuel? nasagad ako minsan, diskargado pa batterya ko (my fuel gauge was faulty). sabi ng mekaniko damay daw batterya pag nasaid ang fuel? any truth to this? TIA.
