Every diesel engine has a story.
A Toyota Hilux came into the workshop with a complaint that sounded familiar: harder starts in the morning, sluggish acceleration, and less pulling power than before. There were no dramatic warning signs—just a feeling that the engine wasn't performing the way it used to.
After a systematic inspection, the diagnosis pointed to the Denso HP5 22100-0E020 high-pressure fuel pump.
Unlike earlier-generation pumps, the HP5 uses a Pre-Stroke Control Valve to deliver more precise fuel metering and faster rail pressure control. Designed for Toyota's 1GD-FTV and 2GD-FTV diesel engines, it supports common rail pressures of up to 2,500 bar, helping improve combustion efficiency, fuel economy, and emissions performance.
You'll find this pump in many popular Toyota models, including the Hilux, Fortuner, Hiace H300, Prado, and selected Land Cruiser 70 Series vehicles.
The repair wasn't just about replacing a part—it was about restoring the engine's original performance. With the new HP5 installed and the fuel system properly inspected, the engine started smoothly, delivered stable rail pressure, and regained the responsive performance the driver had been missing.
Modern common rail systems demand precision. Sometimes, one well-engineered component can make all the difference.
