The fuel pump delivers fuel from the tank to the engine at the pressure required by the injection system. This category contains aftermarket fuel pumps and fuel modules for American vehicles.
In this guide: Fuel pumps.
Fuel pumps
What it is: An electric pump draws fuel from the tank and pushes it to the engine. In many vehicles it is part of a module that also contains the fuel level sender and a strainer.
Where it is fitted: Usually inside the fuel tank, reached through an access panel or by lowering the tank.
Signs of wear: Signs are hard starting, stalling, loss of power under load, a loud whine from the tank, and an engine that cranks but will not start.
Did you know: Running on a near-empty tank shortens pump life because the fuel cools it; before replacing the pump, also check the fuse and relay.
