Hey guys ..
hope this finds u all well

My 04 crossfire has a problem that when i turn the switch it gives the sound sound of ignition but it doesn't reach the final point!
I toke it to a mechanic who worked in Mercedes for several years. He knocked the fuel bomb several times and it worked!
However, he said that i need to replace the whole fuel bomb with a new one that costs 668$ + labor

Any suggestions? Any thoughts?

I hope to hear from u guys soon because i told him that i will call tomorrow to wither let him order the parts or no because they take at least a week to be deliverd.

Best regards ..

 

wth is a fuel bomb?


do you mean fuel pump?

 

NEVER knock on a fuel bomb!


Go to needswings.com ... install isn't that hard either.

 

Jeez Greg, at least tell him he is looking for a FUEL PUMP, not a fuel bomb.
I don't think Rob at NW keeps many of those in stock.

 

U r right .. i spilled it wrong

 

You're funny ! - you spilled the fuel bomb ?

 

This is all i found related to fuel in the website u suggested

Unfortunately, i don't have that much knowledge in parts
i will show this page to the mechanic and c if the part we r looking for is there

Anyway, i'm still looking forward to read more from u guys and mabe someone had such a problem and can share his experience with me to know if i should order a new one or just do somthing on the current one to fix it.

Thank u guys and waiting to read more of ur helpful comments

 

Hhhhh .. sometimes u need to write something wrong to learn
English is not my first language and i'm still in the first year in the english program
hopefully that is a valid excuse for me here .. 😉

 

For sure ! - I have added you to my "ignore the spelling list"
Where are you from ?

 

Glad you have humor! You will need it here with us. LOL. I have only done the fuel filter which is right by the pump. Takes a little time but wasn't too difficult. The pump should be about the same.

 

Hhhh thanx .. I'm honored

I'm from Bahrain

 

Bahrain !!!!
You are supposed to be rich beyond imagination from oil revenues and driving a Rolls Royce.
What are you doing in a lowly Crossfire ?

( joking )

Welcome to the forum !

 

Did u replace it with a new one?
Did u do it urself?
How much did it cost u "price wise"?

 

Hhhh i expected that response as i get it whenever i mention my origin to american people
As much as i hope that it's true, it's not.
oil money is for governores and their relatives. Normal people have to fight even for their right to b citizens.

Sorry, i just got carried away ..
anyway, it's nice to be in this forum with u guys

 

The filter was about 35 dollars


Yes I did this myself


My biggest issue was the original "band" type clamps - which I replaced with the worm gear types.


Be careful of the brand you may get.


Bosch - Mann - parts sold on Needswings - all are what our cars demand ! They are very picky on the quality of the parts.


Do not use "typical" part store items.

 

I just replaced the fuel filter on my limited and re-used the original clamps. They are easily undone with a flat bladed screw driver and snapped closed again with tile nippers.

 

55 fuel pump

Is the fuel pump that needwings is advertising now. It is a high flow model from a 55k The price is good and i am sure it bolts on ( the guys @ Needwings would know for sure ) but it might be more than you really need. AuothausAZ has this one for less than 200

Bosch 0986580372 Fuel Pump, Electric

 

Thanx to whoever commented here
i really appreciate ur help ..
