Re: EGR Valve on 2000 Lanos(US model)

Thank you. Tried cleaning but wasnt thats successful. Tried blocking it but the car wasnt pulling too well so unblocked it. I dont think its faulty though. Mine is electric.

Re: How to Install Fuel Pump on 2000 Lanos

Thanks man. Discovered the floater on the new pump extended too far to the right and was stuck on some component in the tank. My lanos is from the usa and has lots of sensors and stuff in the tank. Replaced the floater with the old one and its just fine.

Re: How to Install Fuel Pump on 2000 Lanos

Thanks Mamdouh but i checked by pulling the socket on the pump and turning on the ignition so the gauge drops all the way to empty. Then i connect the socket and it immediately jumps all the way to 3/4 again.

How to Install Fuel Pump on 2000 Lanos

Hi All,
I have installed a new fuel pump on a 2000 Lanos but the gauge floater appears to be locked on something in the fuel tank so the dash indicator is stuck on 3/4 and doesnt change level even on empty. How do i install the pump so the gauge reads the proper quantity?
Thanks

VERY High Consumption on 2000 Lanos

My wife's 2000 lanos gets about 150 miles to the tank. CEL is not on. Diagnostics do not reveal any problems. New plugs, filters, oil etc. Acceleration is very poor. Do not want to spend on IAT and O2 sensors if that might not be the problem. Been suggested i change the ECU since that may well be th...
