Delphi holds more than 30 OE proprietary innovations and 150 patents in fuel module and pump design. All pumps are tested for durability up to 150,000 miles. Delphi OE engineering and testing processes enable them to create smart, durable, electric fuel pumps with features that resist failure.
Why Do Fuel Pumps Fail?
Fuel pumps typically operate for seven to ten years before failure. Premature failures are most commonly caused by one of the following reasons:
- Excessive Hot/Cold Environments
- Contaminated fuel
- Excessively running a vehicle on a near empty tank which prevents the pump from being fully submerged causing it to overheat
The Delphi Difference
- Designed and tested to operate even with low voltage to ensure a vehicle will start if it has a low battery
- Rigorous OE-testing ensures the pump can withstand extreme temperatures ranging from -25 to 150F
- Designed for flawless electrical installation with increased terminal size and enhanced connectors. Elimates excessive electrical resistance, improves heat dissipation, and boosts current flow capacity
- Improved tubing design to reduce transmitted noise from the pump
- Tested performance in corrosive, contaminated E22 and E95 fuel blends to ensure long life
- Patented Generation IV turbine pump to deliver fast fuel pressure rise for fast engine starts
