Can dirty high-pressure pump filter be why engine is surging over 3,000 rpm or injector
0:06
Yes, 100% a dirty high-pressure pump filter could cause you all kinds of running issues
0:11
especially over 3,000 rpm because you're losing fuel. So anytime you are losing wide open throttle
0:17
or you're not getting over say 3,000 rpm, depending on your engine model, then you could
0:23
be in an rpm reduction. If you have no codes, no alarms, you're just putting the handle down and
0:28
it's only going to 3,000 rpm, most of the time that is going to be a fuel-related issue and it's
0:34
going to be a volume issue. I'm sure if the engine is surging, it's going to be bogging down, it's
0:38
going to be surging, it's going to be shaking violently. Most likely you're not getting the
0:42
volume of fuel, which means your high-pressure pump, there's a screen on the bottom of it
0:46
If that screen is completely dirty, if your VST or your FSM is full of fuel, it could be an
0:51
electrical issue, but check your fuel first. I would look at the fuel system before I even start
0:56
going and looking at anything electrical
