CarQuest Fuel Pump OEM U2542557
This CarQuest fuel pump delivers OE-calibrated flow and pressure with a fresh strainer sock included.
The in-tank fuel pump module supplies fuel from the tank to the engine's fuel rail at the calibrated pressure and volume. Pumps fail from age, heat, ethanol exposure, and running the tank near empty for long periods. Symptoms include long cranking at start, engine stumble under load, and pump whine that grows as the fuel level drops. Replace the strainer sock with any pump service.The manufacturer part number covers a broad range of makes, models, and model years - which is common for hardware kits, hydraulic components, and service items where the same physical piece is used across many platforms. The correct way to confirm this fits your vehicle is to match the manufacturer part number against your service manual, the OE parts diagram, or the part you are replacing. If your service manual cross-references this manufacturer PN, or if the piece you are removing carries this number physically stamped or labeled, you are looking at the correct replacement.
If you would like us to verify fitment against your VIN or vehicle configuration before you buy, contact us with the year, make, model, submodel, and trim of your vehicle and we will confirm the cross-reference against the manufacturer catalog.
Cross-Reference
Manufacturer part number U2542557. This is a CarQuest catalog part. Confirm the OE reference for your vehicle matches before installing.
Why You Might Need This
Symptoms of a failing pump: long cranking at start, engine stumble under load, or a pump whine that grows louder as the tank level drops. On modern returnless systems, low pressure at the rail confirms the pump diagnosis. Replace the strainer sock at the same time.
Installation Notes
Prime the fuel rail before the first crank by cycling the key on and off two or three times without cranking. Check for leaks at the fuel-rail feed and return lines before starting. Replace the strainer sock at the same time as the pump - this is included with most modern pump modules.
