Fuel Pump Module





Removal and Installation

WARNING: Do not smoke, carry lighted tobacco or have an open flame of any type when working on or near any fuel-related component. Highly flammable mixtures are always present and may be ignited. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.

WARNING: Do not carry personal electronic devices such as cell phones, pagers or audio equipment of any type when working on or near any fuel-related component. Highly flammable mixtures are always present and may be ignited. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.

WARNING: Before working on or disconnecting any of the fuel tubes or fuel system components, relieve the fuel system pressure to prevent accidental spraying of fuel. Fuel in the fuel system remains under high pressure, even when the engine is not running. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.

WARNING: When handling fuel, always observe fuel handling precautions and be prepared in the event of fuel spillage. Spilled fuel may be ignited by hot vehicle components or other ignition sources. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.

WARNING: Always disconnect the battery ground cable at the battery when working on an evaporative emission (EVAP) system or fuel-related component. Highly flammable mixtures are always present and may be ignited. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.

NOTE: The Fuel Pump (FP) module has a serviceable fuel level sender. For additional information, refer to Fuel Level Sender .

All vehicles

1. Release the fuel system pressure.

2. Disconnect the battery ground cable.

3. Remove the fuel tank. For additional information, refer to Fuel Tank Removal and Replacement.

4. NOTE: Clean the Fuel Pump (FP) module connection, coupling, flange surface and the immediate surrounding area of any dirt or foreign material.

Disconnect the FP (Fuel Pump) module electrical connector. Disconnect the fuel tank jumper tube-to-FP (Fuel Pump) module quick connect coupling and fuel vapor tube quick connect couplings.





5. NOTICE: Carefully install the lock ring wrench to avoid damaging the Fuel Pump (FP) module when removing the lock ring.

Install the lock ring wrench and remove the FP (Fuel Pump) module lock ring.






6. NOTICE: The Fuel Pump (FP) module must be handled carefully to avoid damage to the float arm.

Carefully lift the FP (Fuel Pump) module out of the fuel tank enough to access and disconnect the internal fuel vapor tube-to-FP (Fuel Pump) module quick connect coupling.





All-Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicles

7. NOTICE: The Fuel Pump (FP) module must be handled carefully to avoid damage to the float arm.

Carefully lift the FP (Fuel Pump) module out of the fuel tank enough to access and disconnect the internal fuel tube-to-FP (Fuel Pump) module quick connect coupling.





All vehicles

8. NOTICE: The Fuel Pump (FP) module must be handled carefully to avoid damage to the float arm.

NOTE: The FP (Fuel Pump) module will have residual fuel remaining internally, drain into a suitable container.

NOTE: Inspect the mating surfaces of the FP (Fuel Pump) module flange and the fuel tank O-ring seal contact surfaces. Do not adjust the O-ring seal contact area of the fuel tank flange or the fuel tank. Install a new FP (Fuel Pump) module or fuel tank if the O-ring seal contact area is damaged.

Completely remove the FP (Fuel Pump) module from the fuel tank, and remove the FP (Fuel Pump) module O-ring seal.





9. NOTE: Install a new lock ring if it is bent, damaged or corroded.

NOTE: Make sure the alignment tab on the FP (Fuel Pump) module and the fuel tank meet before tightening the FP (Fuel Pump) module lock ring.

To install, reverse the removal procedure.
- Install a new FP (Fuel Pump) module O-ring seal.
