Changing the fuel filter on a Toyota Corolla E150 with your own hands

The process of changing the fuel filter on a Toyota Corolla E150 is quite difficult and time-consuming, therefore, those who are not confident in their abilities are advised to contact a specialist car service center.

The location of the filter is quite specific - directly in the fuel tank of the vehicle, so you will have to do a lot of work to replace it.

Algorithm

So, let's get started with the process:

1. The first step is to turn off the power to the vehicle. To do this, the negative terminal is removed from the battery.
2. Next, it will be necessary to remove the rear seat.

The fuel filter is located in the gas tank, which is under the rear seats.

Disconnect the fuel pump wiring.

Unscrew the fixing cover.

We assemble the unit.

We connect the pipes and electrics.

Articles and product selection

Selecting a product is quite simple. Besides the original fuel filter, there is only one analogue, which, as practice shows, is what motorists take. So, let's look at what filter elements the automotive market offers us:

• Toyota 77024-12050 is an original part that costs about 4,000 rubles.
• JS Asakashi FS21001 is the only analogue on the market with a cost of 4,000 rubles.

Signs of a blockage

In order for the car’s fuel system to work efficiently, it must receive clean fuel, free of dust, abrasive particles, water and various impurities. For this purpose, all kinds of cleaning elements are installed in cars, the main one of which is a filter for incoming fuel.

The fuel filter elements of Toyota Corolla cars in the E120 and E150 bodies are different in design, but the principle and procedure for replacing them are the same.

As a result of operation, the cleaning element gradually becomes clogged, which affects the overall performance of the car. If the high quality of the fuel entering the gas pump is not ensured, the mechanism may fail. And this, as a rule, entails a disruption in the operation of the motor itself.

The manufacturer recommends changing the fuel filter for Toyota Corolla with both 120 and 150 body types no later than every 60–80 thousand kilometers. But given the quality of gasoline in our country, it is better to do this even more often.

The following characteristic signs of unstable car operation indicate that the filter is clogged:

• a significant increase in the volume of fuel consumed in the absence of changes in operating mode;
• acceleration became slower;
• when the engine speed decreases, its power also decreases significantly;
• the car often stalls when stopping, for example, at a traffic light;
• startup becomes unstable, especially after a break of several hours;
• unstable operation of the transmission, lack of a clear response to gear shifting.

A clogged filter that damages the fuel system should be replaced as soon as possible.

What injectors are installed on Toyota Corolla 120 and 150 body

Structurally, Toyota Corolla injectors are electromagnetic valves, which, when opening, ensure the supply (injection) of fuel in the required volume into the engine cylinders. At the same time, the main purpose of the part is to save fuel, so the valve opens at regular intervals, depending on the driving mode.

Corolla is equipped with products manufactured by Toyokawa companies, which are characterized by a high degree of reliability and wear resistance. Their service life is determined by a mileage of 100–150 thousand kilometers, after which it is recommended to change them.

When replacing injectors, you can also pay attention to cheaper analogues from manufacturers Bosh and Standart, which are available in many car dealerships in your city.

The editors of our site recommend choosing materials from the same manufacturer that the car was equipped with at the factory.

Replacing the fuel filter

Often, owners change the part only when there are malfunctions in the Corolla engine or obvious signs that the filter element is clogged. Clogging of the mesh occurs gradually, so the problem may not be detected immediately. If measures are not taken in a timely manner, you may encounter difficulties when starting the engine, a shortened service life and the need to make major repairs more often.

The fact that the Toyota Corolla fuel filter is clogged is indicated by uneven operation of the power unit, slow acceleration, and jerking when moving. The engine may also stall from time to time for no apparent reason. If such problems begin to appear, you must first check the condition of the mesh and, if necessary, replace it.

Replacing the fuel filter on a Corolla 150

Replacing the fuel filter on a Corolla 150 is carried out according to the recommended instructions, which are given below.

• Remove the rear row of seats. To do this, you need to lift the seats and, with a little effort, release their fastenings from the grooves that are located on the body.

Rear row of seats that can be removed

• Remove the trim. A technological hatch will open under it.

• Using a flat blade screwdriver, pry up the cover and remove it. If difficulties arise and the hatch sticks too much, you need to warm it up along the contour using a hairdryer.

• Clean the space under the lid using a vacuum cleaner.
• Relieve pressure in the system. To do this, disconnect the fuel pump terminal block and start the engine. When the engine stalls, you can continue removing the fuel filter.
• Disconnect the supply and return hoses. To do this, you need to press the clamps and pull up or to the side to disconnect the tubes.

The process of removing the hose

• Unscrew the 8 fastenings of the fuel module cover.
• Carefully remove the fuel filter. In this case, avoid getting fuel on the body.

Old and new fuel filter

• If you intend to replace the fuel filter with a module, then you need to insert a new one in place of the removed unit. Further assembly is carried out in the reverse order of dismantling. Since the cost of the fuel filter module is high, many car owners only change the coarse mesh filter element. To do this, you need to disassemble the fuel module.

• Reassemble everything in the reverse order of removal.

Replacement for Corolla 120 body

What will be needed for replacement?

The average lifespan of a TF is 50 thousand km. But this mileage is designed for Japanese roads and the service life of the element is significantly reduced by at least half if you regularly drive in dusty areas. In general, it all depends on the conditions of the region in which your vehicle is used. Therefore, on Toyota it is better to replace the fuel filter at least every 25 thousand kilometers . So, if you understand that the time has come to replace the fuel system cleaning element, then you need to prepare in advance:

• directly to the fuel filter. The original assembled TF for Corolla will cost at least 4 thousand rubles (about 1 thousand hryvnia), while a Chinese-made filter will cost 2,500 rubles (about 700 hryvnia). Of course, it is better to install the original on your car, but domestic motorists have long practiced installing Chinese filters, which often work no worse than Japanese ones;
• two o-rings, the cost of which is 200 rubles (50-60 hryvnia);
• flat screwdriver or knife;
• Phillips screwdriver;
• a little rag;
• vacuum cleaner;
• container for draining fuel from the fuel pump.

O-rings for TF

Step-by-step instructions for replacing an element

So, let's start replacing the TF on your Toyota Corolla in the 120th body of 2007 and 2008.

1. First of all, we dismantle the rear seats of your car and remove the upholstery located under the seats.
2. You can see the fuel pump cap.
3. Take a knife or flat screwdriver and carefully (very carefully - the plastic cover is fragile) pry it off and move it to the side. If you can’t remove it, then use a knife to scrape off the layer of sealant that holds the gas tank cap in place.
4. Remove the cover.
5. We take a container prepared in advance and very carefully disconnect the hoses (gasoline can flow out of them, about 200 grams).
6. We see a very dusty cover of our filter; it needs to be vacuumed so that dust does not get into the tank.

Corolla element cover in the 120th body

• Take a Phillips screwdriver and unscrew the eight bolts that hold the TF cover in place.
• Before you begin dismantling the TF, when the tubes are already disconnected, the car must be started. We wait a few minutes until the car stalls on its own. When this happens, start it again and repeat the procedure. This will remove all gasoline from the system.
• Now remove the battery terminals.
• We remove the fuel pump and begin its visual inspection. First of all, we look at the mesh (this is an element of rough cleaning of the system) to see how dirty it is.

• Then we proceed to disassemble the fuel pump in order to gain access to the fine cleaning element and replace both consumable components.
• First you need to dismantle the float.
• When the float is removed, we dismantle the coarse filter, and then the fine filter element.

• If you did not buy rubber gaskets, then under no circumstances should you lose them.
• We take a new filter, install it in the gas tank and assemble everything in the reverse order.
• It is important to remember that the old mesh and float must be installed on the new filter.

This relatively simple procedure is performed in order to maintain a high degree of fuel purification, since the engine power and the reliability of its starting, as well as the longevity of the service life of the rubbing parts of the piston group, depend on it. Replacing the fuel filter on a Toyota Corolla model with a 120 body can also be done at home if the owner has the skills to work with moderately complex mechanisms.

To prevent the car engine from getting impurities into it along with the fuel, a special filter is used. It is believed that the service life of the filter element depends on the good performance of the spark plugs and the quality of the lambda probe.

According to the Toyota Corolla operating instructions, the fuel filter should be replaced after 80 thousand kilometers. Many car enthusiasts continue to drive without replacing the filter and almost double the recommended mileage. But it’s still wiser to do as recommended by the manufacturer, basing the replacement only on the speedometer readings.

On Russian roads, the quality of fuel often leaves much to be desired, and the need for replacement may occur even before the specified mileage. True, such cases are very rare. Many Toyota Corolla owners recommend starting to replace the filter only when there are signs of a decrease in its throughput or a complete failure of operation. Since the filter becomes dirty very slowly, it is not immediately possible to notice obvious symptoms of its poor performance. But further operation with a clogged filter has a bad effect on the engine’s time between overhauls. They are shrinking.

If you don’t have the determination to carry out the replacement yourself, then why not contact a specialized center? The costs for this work will not be so great.

Here are the signs of a filter malfunction:

• Uneven operation of the engine, both under load and at idle;
• Low throttle response, slow acceleration;
• Poor starting and unexplained engine stalls

The fuel filter in a Toyota Corolla belongs to the fuel supply unit, and together with the pump are located inside the tank. This equipment is accessible from under the rear seat. The housing of the pump group unit is a plastic monolith and there is a filter inside it. So replacement in many Toyota models has to be done in a complex manner.

When replacing a filter, it is very important to correctly install all the sealing rings and gaskets - because the pressure in the injection system will depend on this, and therefore the quality of engine operation.

To work with the gas tank, turn off the ignition, pull out the fuel pump fuse (or better yet, just remove the terminal from the battery) and do everything in the sequence described below.

Step-by-step steps for removing and replacing the filter element

1. The Toyota Corolla 120 fuel filter is accessible from under the rear seat on the left side of the cabin. We remove the underbody trim under the rear seat on the left and gain access to the gas tank cavity cover.

Photo 1. Gas tank cavity hatch under the seat on the left.

1. We pry up the cover with a screwdriver (it is glued with sealant) and gain access to the cavity above the gas tank where the fuel system pump unit is installed. Before proceeding with the replacement, you need to thoroughly vacuum the opened cavity, first under the underbody upholstery, and then above the gas tank.

Photo 2. Open cavity above the gas tank. The cover of the Toyota Corolla fuel block with gas lines and an electrical connector is visible.

1. Open the electrical connector and disconnect the direct gasoline supply and return hoses. To remove the return hose, use a thin screwdriver to pull the yellow clamp out to the side.

1. Unscrew the eight screws with a Phillips screwdriver and remove the pump unit. This is what it looks like in the photo (below)

Photo 4. Removed pump block. Below you can see the L-shaped mesh of the fuel intake filter.

1. We disconnect the float by removing the latch, then disconnect the block body at the top, recessing the plastic clips in a circle.
2. With a little effort, pull the fuel pump out of the rubber seal.
3. We insert the fuel pump into the new fine filter housing. We wash and blow through the intake mesh with compressed air, and then reassemble everything in the reverse order.

Photo 5. Sawn housing of an old fine fuel filter. Traces of severe contamination are visible.

If the replacement is done correctly and the rubber O-rings are not forgotten, the engine will start without problems and will work better than before.

In other Toyota Corolla models, for example with the 150 body of 2008, instead of a metal fuel block cap with screws, a large plastic ring with a rubber seal is screwed onto the tank neck. To remove the block, you need to turn the ring counterclockwise, loosening the seal, and then remove the entire pump block.

Photo 6. Another design of the pump block cover for models with access from the right side under the rear seat.

You can unscrew the ring lid by carefully hitting the ribs of the lid with a hammer through the wooden inserts. Upon further disassembly, something differs from the design of the Toyota Corolla with a 120 body until 2008. For example, the intake mesh looks a little different; a fine filter may be a separate part, but the rest is almost the same.

Fire safety during work

When working to replace the filter under the underbody from the passenger compartment, it is very important to follow fire safety rules. Within a few seconds after removing the gas tank cap, gasoline vapors penetrate into the cabin. Their explosiveness when mixed with air is mentioned everywhere. Therefore, in no case should there be sources of sparking and, especially, open fire!

When the pump unit is removed and work is being done somewhere on the table, the neck of the gas tank should be temporarily covered with a clean film or thick rag. At the same time, you should not close the car doors - the interior will be ventilated through them. It is also preferable to keep the vehicle outdoors while working.

It is better to replace the Toyota Corolla filter in a timely manner, according to the recommendations. You should not wait until the car breaks down - after all, all its systems are functionally connected to one another. If breakdowns begin because of this, then you will have to spend money not only on replacing the filter, but on expensive diagnostics and repairs.

Replacing the main filter - follow the instructions

Replacing the fuel filter in a Toyota Corolla is a completely feasible task for every driver. Automotive stores generally only have an additional filter, which is located under the hood, so worry about ordering the main device in advance. There is no need to save money on your purchase and it is better to purchase only the original. It will serve you much longer than the Chinese fakes that are now saturated in the auto parts market.

Before replacing, you will need not only the part itself, but also additional tools: a pair of screwdrivers and sealant, as well as open-end wrenches to replace the second filter. The main fuel filter in a Toyota Corolla is located under the rear seat in the fuel tank. This type of filter is commonly called submersible. To replace it, you need to lift the rear seat, or even unscrew it for a while. Under the seat you will see a metal cover, the so-called hatch. Using a screwdriver, carefully pry it out, as it is attached to the sealant. When doing this, be careful not to damage the electrical wires.

Opening the lid, you will see a fuel pipe and a chip with wires. First of all, turn off the power supply. The next step is to disconnect the fuel pipe. There is an arrow on its plastic lock that indicates the direction in which you need to turn it - do this carefully so as not to break it. After disconnecting, gasoline may spill out, so use a cloth or bottle. To prevent gasoline from spilling, before starting all work, you must remove the pump fuse from the mounting block.

The engine must be turned on. You need to wait until it stalls. These actions will cause all the fuel in the tube to burn. Before removing the pump and filter, pay attention to its correct location in the tank - you will also need to put the new part back in the same way. Unscrew and remove the clamping ring, then carefully remove the pump with the filter - it is important not to damage or move the level float with the fuel grid.

The next step is to remove the part itself. To do this, turn the entire body over and carefully move a few rivets, then remove the cover. There will be a rubber gasket under the cover, which also needs to be removed. Then remove the metal corkscrew ring that holds the fuel grid in place. If possible, replace it with a new one or, at a minimum, rinse it well in water and let it dry.

Then disconnect the pressure regulator - this will be quite difficult, since it is located in the sealing rubber. After this, disconnect the fuel pump and o-rings. Now take a new filter and assemble everything in reverse order. Before assembly, you can lubricate all rubber sealing joints with oil, this will greatly simplify the assembly process. Clean the hatch cover from the old sealant and apply a new one. You will need to hold it under a load for 10-15 minutes for the sealant to harden.

REPLACEMENT OF UNIT

Replacing the Toyota Corolla fuel filter is a procedure that is quite feasible for any owner of this model. It does not have any special subtleties or difficulties, but to carry it out competently, it is useful to know the essence of the whole event. First you need to prepare properly. Preparatory activities include:

• Purchasing a new part. It is advisable to take original fuel filters for the Corolla. Their articles are as follows:

• coarse filter element - LFB6-13-ZE1;
• fine filter - 77024-12050;
• gaskets and rings - 77169-0D030, 9030108020, 9030104013;
• fuel module assembly - 23221-11050.

• Preparing the necessary tools. You will need the following tools:

• flat and Phillips screwdrivers;
• broom or vacuum cleaner;
• rags;
• container for gasoline;
• directly replacement parts.

• Ensuring fire safety. Before starting repairs, be sure to make sure that there are no sources of open fire near the repair site and that there is a working fire extinguisher nearby.

Having carried out a basic list of preparatory measures, you can begin the repair. Directly replacing the fuel filter of Toyota Corolla 120 and 150 bodies is carried out using the same algorithm of actions, which looks like this:

First of all, park your car in a spacious and well-transparent place that satisfies the previously mentioned safety precautions. Having done this, secure the car with the handbrake and open the rear doors wide.
