Sedans Toyota Camry Toyota Camry Fuel and Fuel System Questions

You are in the Toyota Camry Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
Is my 04' camry supposed to have a fuel pump prime, because on all of my other cars it primes but not this one, but it does run good. If you turn the Ignition to the ON position, do you hear a small whiring from the back of the car for a few seconds. Im confused becasue according to my manual, to check fuel pressure you have to have the prime. ANYBODY CHECk for your prime, regarless of year. Although i have a 93 but it isnt suposed to.

I have a '98 Toyota Camry and we can't figure this one out. Filling up the car takes forever because the pump keeps cutting off. No matter where we fill up this happens. Always thought the cut off was a function of back pressure from the tank, but this happens all the time no matter how we manipulate the pump. Any ideas?

Replying to: jpclan (Aug 20, 2006 2:24 pm) as penizzle is describing, anything which prevents displacement of the air in the tank when the fuel is going in will build a back pressure as you said causing it to be sensed in the pump nozzle and cause the pump to stop. the place to start is the filler tube as was mentioned. if it isn't that, then i've provided what i think is the other most likely possibility. on some cars, i think they have an internal bladder in the fuel tank. possibly if you run them too low, it's a problem to get them to open/expand back out. not sure about that, but i don't think you're vehicle has that sort of thing. |

Replying to: grant2 (Aug 20, 2005 9:03 pm) I was driving my car down the street to a friend's Home and all of a sudden it stopped in front of the road,so one of my buddy's mechanic friend checked it out for me,to see what was wrong and he didnt know the problem.this is what happened... I started to crank it up just to see will it start but no results, my mechanic looked inside the engine into one of the spark plugs to our surprise.. gas drowned out the spark plugs leaving it black ... the question is, if you crank your ride and gas shoots inside your spark plugs and drowns them everytime what could be the problem.. i need a answer ASAP.. Please!!!

Hi, I realized this isn't the exact place to post but I think the problem might be related to the fuel injector (I'm no car expert so don't go flaming on me if it isn't  Ok, every time I start up my 99 Camry LE, the engine would die a few seconds later unless I depress the throttle a little bit (1100 RPM or more). After a minute or two I can release the throttle and the engine will idle just fine, without dying. So what exactly is the problem? Could it be the fuel injector pumping an insufficient amount of fuel into the engine? Thanks in advance for any help!
