Help please - removing fuel pump without special spanner wrench thingy

Not available at Home Depot.

You need one of these.

 

Edit:

Looks like the proper tool for the job has been linked above.

Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.

 

It won't work. It's a plastic lock ring about 6 inches in diameter. I believe it POM (polyoxymethylene) which has trade names of Delrin (USA PuPont) and Duracon (Japan). Using a screwdriver and wacking away will likely crack it.

Check out this YouTube video.

 

The real deal looks like this:



A local auto parts place might have a suitable tool that you can rent or borrow (or pay a deposit on, use, and bring back to the store for your deposit).

 

@ChapmanF I'd like your post but I can't for the life of me read the numbers. (Thanks for trying).

 

I posted mostly for the drawing of what the appropriate tool looks like. Most people probably won't be that interested in the official Toyota tool numbers, because most people won't be that interested in the official Toyota tool prices.

But the numbers in the image don't seem hard to read for me. Did you view the image at full size?

09808-14020, using the pieces 09808-01410, -01420, and -01430, for anybody with cash burning holes in their pockets.

 

Many auto supplies have tools you can borrow with a refundable deposit.

 

Hey Georgina, for me at least, those Amazon links are always blank space. I could maybe set some exclusions on my ad block (nearly necessity on this site), but it’s a struggle. I find posting a screen-shot image a simple work-around.

 

TapaTalk? Tap upper right corner of screen and select "web view". Then pick (one of) your web browser(s) to open. Link should be proper on the web view.

 

iPhone with Safari. Same issue on win10 pc with Firefox. In both cases an ad block running.

 

Probably better than my Android 10 on a moto G7 power. My wife was showing how her niece in the Philippines made a video for school to "create a magic carpet". In the video she notes how she hopes to come here to the USA. My wife noted if she comes I could have a "free baby". This morning I open my Amazon app and deal of the day is a baby crib! (My phone is spying on me).

Ordered a REVVL V+ 5G (Android 11) at T-Mobile yesterday. Hope it finally stops someone from stealing my CC info! Last security patch for Android 10 dated Feb 1 2021. For Android 11 the demo showed June '21 (I forget the exact date). Androids don't get continual OS updates like iPhones. (Have you downloaded iOS 15.0)?

EDIT- Sorry OP for sidetracking your thread!

 

Maybe its your Canadian passport and a US link. Does this Canadian link work?

The link is a xtool d7 scanner the youtube Car Car Nut Toyota dealer mechanic recommends as close to Techstream for $469 US.

Nope, still blank.

And again, I'm sure it's my ad blocker. I just don't care to mess with it. With one ad blocker I had before, it was pretty easy to create exceptions; current one not so much. As mentioned above, guess we're all off-topic. I was gonna pm but it seems to be disabled? Due to pop-up ads, lol?

Addendum: I told my ad blocker (currently Ghostery, running in FireFox browser, on Win10 pc) to trust amazon.com and amazon.ca, but amazon ads STILL don't display on Priuschat. Seem to recall Priuschat itself had a hand in that?

 

I'm not using anything billed as an ad blocker, just a generic JavaScript blocker. Which does generally have the side effect of cutting down on ads, given that most ads want to use JavaScript to behave more obnoxiously than they could in straight HTML.

It's not because I'm against ads per se, just that leaving my computer open to run j. rando third party internet site's JavaScript code is pretty much a hard no for me.

And as a result, the way a lot of people post amazon links on PriusChat will just always look like about 3 inches of blank space to me. I've made my peace with that. I see 3 inches of blank space in a post and think "I bet that's an amazon link."

It ought to be easy to just add ordinary links, the kind people can just look at and click if they want. That should work for pretty much everybody.

 

Same, I use a 3rd party browser and it blocks ads and amazon links. It’s intrusive when you view an Item on a website and that item follows you as an ad banner from website to website

 

This site uses BB Code. Embedded links are coded with tags like this:

Code:

[URL="https://priuschat.com/find-new/posts"]New Posts[/URL]

Links to YouTube videos get automatically changed to something like this:

Code:

[MEDIA=youtube]IamADzLoE6I[/MEDIA]

Links to any product on Amazon get automatically changed to this:

Code:

[MEDIA=Amazon]B008BHP68A[/MEDIA]

Notice that links to Amazon are considered a form a media, and are not handled the way other generic links are. One advantage to the hosting site is that any links to any product on Amazon.com can automatically get a referral link embedded into them. If you end up buying something (anything, not necessarily the linked listing), the hosting site gets a referral fee. For the rest of us, it commonly gets blocked, as ad blockers treat it like an ad.

Looks like if you make it a link yourself, it does what you say, or if you make it [plain], it's left alone.

Above works, but does a redirect: I linked US Amazon site, but when I click it it takes me to CDN site (which has same product, albeit higher priced).

Hey, should we fugedabout this? Or is OP gone, it's a free for all?
