Replacing the fuel pump mesh on Grant

I think there is no need to explain once again that the design of the fuel pump on Kalina and Grant cars is not at all different. That is why the entire process of replacing the components of the fuel pump on the above cars will be the same. Also, it is worth noting that when compared with the models of the 10th VAZ family, there are some points that differ.

Causes of clogged strainer on Grant

It is not necessary to change the grid so often, since when refueling with normal fuel, it can easily travel more than 100,000 km. But symptoms may appear that indicate a clogged fuel pump mesh:

poor engine start
insufficient pressure in the fuel system
dips when pressing the gas pedal
the engine began to slowly gain speed

If you begin to notice the problems described above, then the first thing you should do is look at the mesh filter and, if necessary, replace it.

Procedure for replacing the fuel pump mesh on a Lada Granta

Since the fuel filter on a Lada Granta car is located directly in the tank, it must be removed from there. To do this, one half of the rear seat is folded back, after which the two screws securing the hatch are unscrewed. Below it is the fuel pump. To remove it, you need to do the following:

Relieve pressure in the vehicle's power system
Disconnect the block with power wires
Disconnect the two fuel pipes from the fuel pump cover.
Move to the side the retaining ring that secures the pump in the tank
Pull out the entire module assembly

After this, you can begin removing the mesh filter without any problems.

We move a little to the side three latches - latches, which are clearly shown in the photo below.

Now we move the lower container to separate the module into two parts, first disconnect the tube, which is shown in the photo.

Now we completely separate the two parts of the module.

Now we have full access to the mesh, and it is enough to pry it with a screwdriver so that it moves away from its seat. You may have to apply a little more force than expected, but you can remove it without any problems.

As a result, we obtain a removed strainer, which, as can be seen, is quite heavily contaminated, although in this example we are considering a car with only 65,000 km mileage.

Now we take a new mesh and install it in its place in the reverse order.

In the photo above you can see the black rubber plug. Of course, it must be removed before installation. Also thoroughly rinse the pump container inside and out so that there are no particles of dirt or other debris left on it!

To do this, it is best to use a special carburetor or injector cleaner, such as the one shown above. Then you can assemble the entire structure and install it in the gas tank.

Before starting the Granta engine for the first time, it is necessary to pump fuel several times without starting the engine: pumping two or three times is usually enough. Now you can start the engine and check the result of the work done. The mesh should be replaced regularly, as this example shows that even with a short mileage it is already quite dirty.

The price of a new fuel pump mesh for Grant is about 50-70 rubles.

Dear customers, in order to avoid errors when sending an electric fuel pump, in the “Comment” line indicate your car model, year of manufacture, engine capacity L 1.4 or L 1.5 or L 1.6.

The fuel pump is based on an electric motor. If the resource depended only on it (and this is roughly what happens in Western cars), then the gas pump would last for about 150 - 200,000 kilometers.

An electric fuel pump uses the fuel itself as a lubricant, and our fuel is somewhat abrasive:

— it is full of tiny particles, which over time grind down the working elements of the pump, and it begins to lose its working properties long before the electric motor fails;

- if the fuel filter is dirty enough, the situation gets even worse.

The wear rate can be reduced by timely cleaning of the fuel system and regular replacement of the fuel mesh and fuel filter.

The mesh of the electric fuel pump acts as a filter, that is, when the fuel in the gas tank is pumped into the car engine, it first passes through the mesh, which in turn cleans the gasoline from dirt and small debris, which have a very detrimental effect on the fuel system when it gets into the engine car.

The fuel mesh 21101 (1.6 L) of the electric fuel pump needs to be changed from time to time, because when it is clogged, the fuel pumps into the engine with reduced pressure, that is, it passes very poorly through the clogged mesh and therefore the car drives jerkily and sometimes even doesn't start well.

Wear of the electric fuel pump is accompanied by a rather interesting symptom: fuel consumption decreases. But at the same time, the engine’s throttle response also decreases, so there’s nothing to be particularly happy about.

One of the main reasons for a clogged mesh is poor quality fuel poured into the car, which may contain particles of debris, various types of deposits, etc.

Do not delay replacing the fuel grid to avoid clogging the fuel system. The fuel pump grid is located directly in it, that is, it is located at the bottom of the electric fuel pump.

In order to replace the strainer, you need to remove the fuel pump from the tank. To do this you may need the following tools:

— Flat and Phillips screwdrivers;

— 7 mm socket and extension;

— Ratchet or crank;

— Wrench 17 (if the fittings are on nuts).

When removing the fuel pump, carefully inspect the internal condition of the tank, and if necessary, thoroughly clean or rinse it to get rid of foreign particles and formations.

After replacing the fuel grid of the electric fuel pump, turn the ignition key until the electric fuel pump pumps gasoline into the fuel system, and then start the car!

Fuel filter for Lada Granta

8 2 14k

2 763

The fuel filter on the 1st generation Lada Grant (2011-2018 production) is located separately from the pump, outside the gas tank. The same fuel filter is installed on 16 and 8 valve gasoline Grants.

How many fuel filters are there on the Grant, where are they located and which one to install?

On the Lada Granta, as on most modern cars, the fuel system has 2 fuel filters - the main one (fine filter) and the pump mesh filter (coarse filter).

Granta's main fuel filter is located in the rear under the bottom of the car, near the gasoline tank, next to the body sill. By design, the stock filter, which is installed from the factory, has a black plastic housing. There is an arrow on it indicating the direction of fuel movement, which should be followed when replacing. Part number - 2190-1117010, price - 320 rubles. Manufacturer: Motorika company.

What is noteworthy is that exactly the same filter with a plastic housing is rarely found on sale. More often you can find its complete analogue in a metal case, which is also intended for the Chevrolet Niva - 21230-1117010-81. In terms of characteristics, dimensions and design (except for the body material), they are the same and are interchangeable. Filters similar in size and design were originally installed on other AvtoVAZ cars - Priora and Kalina. Also, if necessary, you can install a fuel filter from Lanos, Chevrolet Aveo or Nubira, Opel Astra G. They are all similar in size and characteristics.

The filter element of the Granta fuel filter uses special high-quality paper. There is also unconfirmed information disseminated by many drivers that it does not allow water to pass through, while all other analogues do, but most likely this is pure marketing.

Despite this statement, as a rule, when replacing the main Granta filter, drivers more often use analogues than the original. The table below shows the most popular of them.

Manufacturer	vendor code	price, rub.
MAHLE	KL83	530
MANN	WK512	420
Filtron	PP905	280

Filter mesh LADA 21101113920000

In fact, there is no difference which filter to install. The degree of purification for all is almost identical. Therefore, both the cheap Filtron and the more expensive MAHLE will work equally well. The main criterion is that the spare part must not be a counterfeit and must be replaced in a timely manner.

The mesh filter (coarse) is located in the fuel tank. It is attached to the pump, which is located in a special plastic module immersed in the gas tank. To access the coarse filter, you need to lift the rear seat and unscrew the cover holding the fuel module with the pump and sensors. Article number of the original spare part - 21101113920000, price - 50 rubles. The same mesh is installed on Kalina. The most popular analogue is Krauf KR1012F, price - 150 rubles.

When and how to replace the fuel filter on a Grant?

According to the Grants maintenance regulations, the manufacturer recommends replacing the main fuel filter every 30 thousand kilometers. Many drivers are of the opinion that for a longer engine life, it is better to do this every 15-20 thousand km, especially considering that the quality of domestic fuel is not always high. Before replacing it, it is advisable to relieve the pressure in the fuel rail. To do this, you need to pull out the fuel pump fuse F21 (blue 15 A), start the car, and wait until it stalls. Then try to start it 2-3 more times, and if it doesn’t start, proceed with replacement.

Replacing the mesh filter is not separately regulated, but it is recommended to change it approximately every 70 - 80 thousand km. And at each maintenance, it is advisable to simply rinse it with carburetor cleaning fluid.

Replacing fuel filters

The frequency and sequence of replacing fuel filters on a Lada Granta car does not depend on the body type or engine modification. Before performing work, you must disconnect the battery from the car body.

Replacement frequency

Most manufacturers of cars with gasoline engines have recently sought to maximize the service life of fuel filters. The Lada Granta car uses “eternal” coarse filters. That is, the strainer is not subject to maintenance during the entire service life of the fuel pump and is replaced along with it.

However, to strictly follow the manufacturer's recommendations, it is necessary to refuel the car with clean, high-quality fuel. In practice, various impurities often enter the tank, significantly reducing the throughput of the filter. Therefore, the grid should be checked, cleaned or replaced every time the fuel module is removed from the tank and when diagnosing the causes of unstable engine operation.

The fine fuel filter is a consumable item. The Lada Granta operating manual recommends changing it every 30 thousand km. In reality, the condition of the filter depends on the purity of the gasoline. Typically, car enthusiasts change it much more often - every 15 thousand kilometers or once a year.

Symptoms of a problem

The throughput of a dirty fuel filter is noticeably reduced. This manifests itself in a decrease in pressure in the fuel rail of an injection engine. Its normal value, measured by a pressure gauge connected to the rack fitting, is 3.8–4 KGS/cm². Since the filter does not accumulate dirt immediately, the pressure also decreases gradually, and this goes unnoticed for some time.

The quality of the fuel-air mixture entering the cylinders depends on the pressure. Due to the lack of gasoline, the mixture becomes leaner, which, in turn, affects the performance of the engine.

The engine reacts to clogged fuel filters as follows:

unstable work;
spontaneous stops at idle speed;
unstable, high and low idle speed;
low power and sluggish dynamics;
jerks and dips.

If these symptoms appear, the pressure in the fuel rail should be measured. If it is below the recommended values (3.8–4 KGS/cm²), it is necessary to replace the fuel filters. The fine filter is easier to change, so it’s better to start with it. If after replacement the pressure does not increase, check the condition of the fuel pump grid.

A dirty mesh negatively affects the operation of the pump. Not enough fuel is supplied to the fuel pump. Trying to compensate for the lack of gasoline, it increases speed, irrationally using its limited resource. The situation is aggravated by the fact that the fuel is used as a coolant and lubricant for the fuel pump. The latter is thus overloaded, simultaneously deprived of lubrication and cooling. The loud noise coming from the pump is a consequence of a dirty strainer.

Initially, the car had the working name Low Cаost, but for a number of reasons it was not suitable for the final product, just as another faceless index was not suitable. AvtoVAZ has announced a competition for the best name for the future people's car. In 2010, the winner was given a Lada Kalina as a reward.

Reduced fuel pressure

In operating condition, the fuel pressure in the system is significantly higher than atmospheric pressure. To prevent uncontrolled spills of gasoline, all work related to depressurization of the system is carried out with the pressure released. To relieve pressure, first turn off the fuel pump by removing the fuel module power connector or removing the fuse. Then the engine is started and the remaining fuel is exhausted. Without additional actions, the pressure drops on its own 2–3 hours after the ignition is turned off.

To work, you will need a flathead and Phillips screwdriver. The procedure for releasing pressure is as follows.

Replacing the fine fuel filter

To replace the fuel filter, you only need a container to collect fuel from the removed filter. The replacement algorithm is as follows.
