Hi Guys,
Recently my colorado has been suffering from what I think is a fuel starvation problem. I have been working out the possibilities and trying to solve it but I am getting no where. The problem is I would start it, and it will rev no more than 1500 rpm and sounds crap. Also a lot of white smoke....( fuel starvation) Also the fuel Blockage light comes on.
The things I have done so far.
- Removed Tank filter, checked for any metal corrosion ect.
-changed fuel filter in engine bay.
-Changed the Injector Pump strainer Pump
-Checked injectors
-Fuel is good.
I know fuel is getting to the Injector pump as it pulls it in and there is pressure. I cleaned out the injector pump stainer thinking it was blocked (which it was) and thinking that was the problem but it was not. As far as the uses manual says that is the only filter there so I cant see where a blockage could be. My theory is that the pump inside my be worn and therefore is not working efficiently.
Has anyone experienced similar problems before? Much help Appreciated.
