Fuel Pump Replacement

[flintknapper]

Second row, DS.

Lift up the second row seat, pull up the carpet and you'll see the large round plate that provides access to the pump.

IIRC it is held on by three screws.

AFTER first determining that a fuel pump needs to be replaced, its not a difficult job, but there are some safety concerns.

Here is a quick write up...from when I did mine: Thank You Toyota! ...Fuel Pump Replacement.

had a brief phone call and he was able to help talk me through some spot diagnosis of the problems with my relay. It was fixed and worked perfectly for an 1,800 mile trip. Ralph quickly pointed out where I should spend my time and how to best approach the issue I faced. Not surprisingly, he was also right about his diagnosis!

Wait ... there are EFI relay issues with the LC100? I'm about to replace my fuel pump, advise on said efi problems?

Not in your 2006.
It's been two years and you haven't replaced it yet? Since that post above this one you bumped from 2018?

I know, my job is not one that leaves any time for really anything in life. Not complaining, my own choices, just my reality. No, I've not replaced it, but will be doing so now as work is easing a very tiny bit under lockdown. Luckily it isn't my DD (not that I'm driving anywhere)

Mine was a miswiring issue and then later a coil issue. I think they were both occurring and it was difficult to pin it down, but problem #1 was me miswiring the O2 sensor.

Complete
Maybe 1.5

Fun preventive maintenance project, the 80 runs night and day better!

Complete fuel delivery, upgraded sway bar, spring swap (nope dobinson suspension, left was left and right was right) added a dobinson spacer for the driver's side, and diff breathers.
