Fuel Pump

[ChrisXJ]

Hey Guys.
Have the 1999 XJ 4.0ltr and want to replace the Fuel Pump/Filter.
Does anyone know which is the best one to buy from Rockauto that will be a plug and play option.

Cheers

Be sure to get the complete pump assembly. I thought I would be clever and only get the pump but it turned out to be the regulator at fault so it had to come out twice. Then I had trouble seating the O ring. Shambles. Very carefully cutting a hole in the rear floor made swapping pumps a 5 minute job.

The Carter complete pump assembly has a heart next to it, but I think I got a Bosch. I don't think it came with the filter on the bottom but it was a simple job to fit the old filter after cleaning it.

You will need a large tool to unscrew the threaded clamp. I made a U shaped device out of 1" x 1" tubing.

Got the right tool for the pump at home if you need it mate, also got a spare pump (used) if you are in an urgent need for it.
