Come along with Eric O. at the SMA shop as he replaces the fuel pump assembly in this 2007 Hyundai Sonata V-6. This one came in the shop with an EVAP leak and he located the leak to be coming from the top of the fuel tank. It is very common on these to crack the top of the fuel pump because the retaining ring gets rusted and "swells" up breaking the plastic. Enjoy!

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars the jerk says:

    I just watched that

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars 1337penguinman says:

    My guess why they changed the design is so they can use it for multiple vehicles. Or at least that particular part. Cut down on manufacturing cost.

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Fabio Monasterolo says:

    I have a 2006 sonata check engine light on w full tank.
    When tank go around 1/2 go off
    Code is P0133 lean condition in upstream o2 sensor
    replace o2 sensors,air intake sensor and cat converter a year ago.
    When ligh come a month ago i swich back to the old upstream o2
    Didn't fix the issue
    No visible leaks in injectors all of them click evenly.
    No fuel smell in the oil
    I like to do a smoke test and replace temp sensor.
    I will replace the fuel pressure sensor also (feel this is the problem)
    Any ideas?

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Esteban Martinez says:

    We replaced fuel pump. But the quick connect failed and pops off. Can the plastic quick connect be replaced and is it fairly easy?
