Yes try removing that from the system
I have seen it happen a few times. Once to me and when it does this the fuel doesn't leak out of the filter it just allows air in causing the pump to lose prime and therefor fuel psi.
Wish u was close enough for me to run over and check it out.
We would probably figure it out pretty quick on that stuff. I always know it all when I consume it.
That stuff was like water. I was scared to drink it because I thought I was going to accidentally die from alcohol poisoning
It could happen for sure.
Trying to change my wheel bearing for the first time on my own with a grand am. Any advice on changing it. Trying to avoid having to pump the brakes

Well I just went ahead and did it and nowthis caliper won’t come off
To get the caliper off use a screw driver a big one to force the pistons in.
You should be able to find the process on YouTube.
I’ll look that up
@Pinochetball @JesseJames Got 'er fixed!! Took a chance on it being the IAC, went out and got a new one, threw it on, problem solved.
Ha!
Noice
That's great news!
Naturally it would be pouring
Any idea why tf this happened?
Over pressurized tire?
Yeah it’s the tire
Wasn’t overpressurized last I check but damn
This is apparently blowout season. It can happen on under inflation to, or any puncture that causes a rapid air leak. That may be the worst ive ever seen
@JesseJames would know.
Bet he's seen a ton of blow outs
@ophiuchus I think under inflation. Causes a lot of sagging/wrinkling in the sidewall, drive it on the highway and that becomes rapid wrinkling and unwrinkling as the sidewall moves between the underside of the wheel where wrinkle is max and the top side of the wheel where there is no wrinkle. This builds up heat and fatigues the sidewall, creating a tear around the entire sidewall.
Unwind a paperclip, then bend and unbend one of the corners 50 times as fast as you can. You’ll be able to feel the heat generated in the bend and it will likely break through from fatigue failure. Same with rubber.
When is the last time you inflated that tire?
Here is an example of my neighbor’s tire, which was under inflated. I noticed and waived him down and got it replaced just before it would have completely let go.
Probably a month or two ago when it started warming up, wanted to check them after the change in weather
Apparently I should be doing it a lot more often though
What’s recommended?
Also the spare said to inflate it to 60 which sounds ridiculously high to me but idk. That’s what it said.
Yes, the spare needs twice the pressure because it’s half as wide.
Check your tire pressure monthly and before every road trip.
<https://www.michelinman.com/US/en/help/tire-care.html>
Damage to the tire or the valve stem or the wheel can cause faster than usual loss of air pressure, leading to the kind of under inflation failures shown in our pictures.
For example, this wheel damage from your picture is a possible cause of an air leak.
Yeah it’s gonna be a fun little fix
I hadn’t even noticed that prior
