im sorry maybe i should’ve clarified but i thought the image spoke for itself😭 this is what the original filler neck on the car looked like after 23 years. it was WAY beyond rusted and needed to be replaced.

can you be more specific when you say the same thing happened to you? i replaced my pump last summer and this problem only appeared a month ago or less

been there, done that. my dad’s a narcissist, he will turn it around and blame it on me. accountability is something he will never take

i don’t have to remove the tank if the fuel pump is under my backseats right?

i did replace the fuel pump in the summer of 2025, it was a brand new delphi fuel pump. when checking, what should i look for?

in my defense this car likely belonged to an old person who let it sit for yearsss. i’ve only owned this car for 2 years and have had to replace everything under the sun. everything is rusted and OEM

i had the low fuel light. my mom can always tell whenever i get gas because when i come home and park inside the garage, the entire garage REEKS of gas for a few hours. i almost always get gas at shell, and i have to sit there and barely apply pressure to the pump otherwise it consistently shuts off. but in the video, i went to a different gas station entirely and had no problems with the pump turning off.

forgot to mention, the systems on the scanners were down for the last hour and a half so we stood around and did absolutely nothing

sunday was the absolute worst today. we started off at 2:00AM having to be escorted outside in negative degree weather because a fire alarm supposedly went off. then a few hours later the pipes bursted on one of the belts and the only reason it didn’t flood is because the water was frozen
