But for most vehicle models, an inline fuel filter is standard. Some cars rely solely on the strainer for filtering fuel. Here in our superstore, you’ll find high-performance pumps that provide higher flow rates, making sure everything runs smoothly every time. When it comes to power-adding upgrades, it’s quite clear that the more power the engine makes, the higher fuel volume and pressure it needs. For diesel powerplants, we carry high-pressure fuel pumps and special diesel fuel injectors. We have all your fuel pump replacement needs, whatever the application. When replacing it, it's also advisable to change the fuel filter and tank seal. The pump can fail due to electrical issues, contamination, or simply wear over time, which can starve your engine of gas and cause it to stall. If this strainer fails or becomes blocked, it can potentially result in pressure related issues, damaging the pump and causing drivability problems. A bad fuel sending unit may cause your gauge to act erratically showing an incorrect gas level or being stuck on empty or full.Īn attached strainer catches contaminants in the fuel before it flows into the pump. The pump is part of a module or hanger assembly that incorporates a float and a sending unit, which provides fuel level data to be shown on the instrument panel. It is usually located inside the tank, which ensures cooler operation and reduces the risk of ignition if a leak occurs. Modern-day fuel injection vehicles feature an electric fuel pump.
Older carbureted cars used a mechanical pump driven by the camshaft.
