Re-occuring fuel pump issues

Fuel Tanks
All too often, vehicles are refueled from a badly rusted or dirt-contaminated fuel tank and in some case water contaminated also, finely granulated dirt will be filtered out in the fuel filter but, in most cases, larger granulations of dirt will clog the filter screen attached to the fuel pump inlet and starve the pump for fuel.
Whenever a fuel pump is replaced, the tank should be inspected for dirt contamination, for loose fuel pump baffling, and for dents or distortions that can restrict fuel entry into the fuel pump or fuel exit from the pressure regulator return line. In some cases, a fuel tank can be cleaned with a hot solution of water and detergent, but in other cases, it’s more cost-effective to replace the fuel tank. If the plastic anti-sloshing baffles have become dislodged from the fuel tank itself, the tank should be replaced with one of the many available from OE or aftermarket sources.
 
Low Fuel Level Effects (reserve/empty)

If you are one who appears to have more than his share of fuel pump failures, it’s a good bet that you are running your fuel tank nearly dry before refueling your vehicle. Even with adequate baffling in the fuel tank, low fuel levels tend to cause the fuel pump to ingest air during acceleration, cornering, and braking. Since modern high-speed fuel pumps require gasoline to lubricate the pump bearings and cool the pump itself, it’s cheaper in the long run to run on the top half of the fuel tank.
One of the most important tips for diagnosing a fuel delivery problem is to check the PCM for trouble codes indicating a faulty fuel level sensor or sending unit. Another tip is to compare the fuel gauge reading with the relative level observed in the fuel tank after the pump assembly has been removed. If the fuel gauge proves to be inaccurate, it’s entirely possible that the driver is running his vehicle too low on fuel.
 
Relays And Resistors

When replacing a fuel pump on a vehicle with more than 100,000 miles on the odometer, the reliability of the repair can usually be increased by replacing the fuel pump relay as well. A relay wears out because it’s an electrically operated switch with two tungsten contacts that connect the fuel pump to battery voltage. In many cases, the relay contacts oxidize and fail to close properly, which can create an intermittent cranking, no-start complaint. In other cases, the contacts can stick together, which allows the fuel pump to drain the battery with the ignition turned off.

Guys please help me out, I just bought camry 2008 l4 engine. I really need help on the best engine oil to use...I have searched for 0w 20 and 5w 20 mobil 1 but couldn't find it in enugu mobil stations.. They (mobil) recommended for me mobil XHP or 0w 40 that it's all same... I don't know what to do... Guys please help me out.. Don't Wana make mistakes.. Thanks

Mobil Enugu has 5w30. I've bought from there. Go to Mobil at the enugu-ph and abakaliki junction. Close to nnpc mega station. You will find 5w30 there. It's the next best thing after 5w20. Or go to any total filling station and buy their 5w30 grade oil. You should be fine. If you can order the 5w20 from the numerous oil sellers here, then that will be a better solution. Steer clear of that 20w50 oil aka xhp

Thanks brother... The 5w30 is it mobil 1 or normal mobil oil

The DRL is controlled by a box under the steering wheel which also controls the headlamp, if they didn't work there, move to the bonnet and just infront of the battery, there is a small fuse box there, let a qualified technician check the fuses and relay there.

Then you move to the main fuse box infront of the brake oil container and check the fuse and relays there then the fuse box in the cabin where the coin holder is, check the fuse designation to know which to remove and check if connection is broken.
