Swapping out the fuel pump unit and the filter on my 2003 Mitsubishi Montero. Fairly easy job, just messy.
Replacement fuel pump unit part# 950-0180 (Denso - OEM)
Replacement fuel filter part# 043-3009 (beck arnley)
Tools needed:
* 10mm socket
* 8mm socket
* Flexible joint extension
* Nose pliers
* Flat head screwdriver
Denso fuel pump kit came with extra stuff, but I ended only using the O-ring, new strainer and the rubber fitting for the fuel pump. Everything else I reused the old parts as they were still in good condition per my visual inspection.
Cycle the key couple times before starting the engine for the first time to make sure the fuel pump is primed and fuel pressure is there.

Very helpful, the only question I have is how did you came to the conclusion it was the pump and not something else, am leaning towards that in my montero but would hate to change that and not being the problem. Just a question is all

When you replace the unit should you apply oil or some other lubricant to the upper o ring gasket that seals between the fuel tank and the fuel pump/ filter module. I replaced my fuel filter on my NP Pajero a couple of days ago and now have a lingering fuel smell. I rechecked for physical leaks and all hoses replaced correctly. I suspect my old O ring may be not 100% sealing the fuel vapour.

Very helpful. Thank you for posting. My Montero's fuel gauge is not reading accurately. Reaches Full but will sink to 3/4 or half tank. Is the float part of the pump assembly, or is the float elsewhere in the tank?

@01170154 3 жыл бұрын

The float is in separate part. Under passenger side floor carpet

Did you have any check engine lights before you changed the fuel pump? I'm getting a p0171 and p0174 in my 04 and was wondering if that's why you changed your fuel pump.

@01170154 4 жыл бұрын

No CEL, but engine would die during driving. I just replaced spark plugs and filter so the problem must've been the fuel supply

Hello, I replaced my fuel pump with the same parts as you. Before my car would just crank and not start. After replacement the car starts up but it takes a little longer to start. Sometimes It cranks a tiny bit more then it used to and other times has a long crank time before ignition. Any ideas?

Just trying to pull mine out after buying the car from a guy that didn't take care of it and he's never done the fuel pump... having trouble taking the clip with the little blue buttons on either side. Is this a simple clip and it's just seized on there or is there some sort of trick to taking it off

@douglasewell 4 жыл бұрын

They make a special tool for it . If you don't have that you have to seize them together hard and pull.
