Istrippedmyoilbolt Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Hey there, I have an a3 8p 2003 with a 2.0 fsi 150hp lpg converted engine, I looked at a lot of guides on how to change the hpfp cam follower, but everytime i open my bonnet i get confused, because my fuel pump is not located where it is on most other engines? I managed to take a couple of bad photos of the (what i think it is) fuel pump, but it appears to be the shape of a rectangle. On it is a banjo bolt and two xzn (triple square) bolts, so i presume it's the pump.聽 Any ideas on how to change the cam follower on this particular model? The clearance to work on it is also terrible, i can barely even take semi-clear photos of it. Any help is greatly appreciated! 聽
cliffcoggin Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 I can't help with your question I'm afraid, but I am puzzled why an LPG engine would need a fuel pump. Doesn't the gas have enough pressure?
Istrippedmyoilbolt Posted May 17, 2021 Author Posted May 17, 2021 The lpg system works fine, I just mentioned that it's converted to lpg because the lpg injectors are in the photo聽馃榿 Disregard the lpg system, I'm asking about the EA113 engine's high pressure fuel pump, which is known to bust through the cam follower on it, I can't find any info on how to replace the follower on this particular style of pump (which i can't find anywhere else on the net). i'll drop a pic on how it's SUPPOSED to look like on other engines, but mine doesn't, and it's in a different place?
cliffcoggin Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Is this the same car you mentioned聽in聽https://www.audiownersclub.com/forums/topic/18217-audi-a3-8p-engine-bay/聽and聽https://www.audiownersclub.com/forums/topic/18005-power-steering/ 聽
Istrippedmyoilbolt Posted May 18, 2021 Author Posted May 18, 2021 Yes, it's the same engine bay 馃檪 funny enough, i also have similar issues as the guy in the post you mentioned, my battery also went flat and brought up the ESP light with codes 00810, 01423, and 00778聽馃榿 But for now, i'm interested in the fuel pump
