Fuel Pumps

Fuel Pumps: The Engine's Lifeline to Power

Your vehicle's vital systems work tirelessly to keep you moving. Regular maintenance is key to ensuring their longevity and efficiency. Fuel pumps draw gasoline from your tank and deliver it to the engine at the precise pressure needed for proper combustion. Our team at Mopar® recognizes that your vehicle's critical systems are your primary safeguard during every journey.

How Fuel Pumps Function

Modern vehicles use electric fuel pumps located inside the gas tank to maintain consistent pressure throughout the fuel system. They work continuously whenever your ignition is on, pushing fuel through lines toward your engine. This pressurized delivery ensures your Dodge Durango responds immediately when you press the accelerator. The pump must deliver enough volume at the correct pressure to meet engine demands in all driving conditions, from idle to full acceleration.

Warning Signs of Pump Failure

Fuel pumps typically last 100,000 miles but can fail earlier due to contaminated fuel, running on near-empty tanks, or electrical issues. Warning signs include whining noises from your tank, difficulty starting, engine sputtering at high speeds, and unexpected stalling. Troubleshooting often involves checking fuel filters first, as clogged filters force pumps to work harder, accelerating wear. Early replacement prevents being stranded and protects other fuel system components.

Quality Matters When Replacing

Generic aftermarket pumps often use lower-grade materials and may not match factory pressure specifications. These pumps typically wear faster and deliver inconsistent performance. The Jeep Compass requires precise fuel pressure to maintain efficiency and power. Our Mopar® pumps match original equipment specifications exactly, ensuring proper operation and compatibility with your vehicle's computer systems.
