Sparta PN3043 Fuel Pump Module Assembly
Fuel Pump Module Assembly for Explorer and Mountaineer
Sparta PN3043 is a specific-fit fuel pump module assembly for select Ford and Mercury applications. It is built as a standard replacement for in-tank gasoline systems and includes the fuel sending unit, regulator, strainer, seal, and float arm for a complete service replacement.
Fits 2002-2003 Ford Explorer and 2002 Mercury Mountaineer, with direct-fit compatibility for the listed vehicles. This Sparta PN3043 assembly is backed by Delphi OE fuel system expertise and is aimed at higher-mileage, earlier-model vehicles.
Key Features
- Specific-fit, in-tank electric fuel pump module assembly
- Standard replacement design for gasoline fuel systems
- Includes fuel sending unit, regulator, strainer, seal, and float arm
- Turbine pump design with 12-volt operation
- Maximum pressure rating of 80 psi and minimum pressure of 51 psi
- Average flow rating of 23 and average current draw of 7
- Quick-connect outlet with two outlets and round female connector
- Plastic housing with nitrile rubber gasket/seal material
Detailed Description
Sparta PN3043 is a fuel pump module assembly engineered for direct replacement in select Ford Explorer and Mercury Mountaineer models. It is designed for gasoline applications and installs inside the fuel tank, using an electric turbine pump layout with an external strainer and quick-connect outlet. The module includes the fuel sending unit and regulator, helping restore fuel delivery and fuel level reporting in one service part. This part cross-references Airtex Fuel Pumps E2338M and Carter P76026M for the same application.
Fits 2002-2003 Ford Explorer and 2002 Mercury Mountaineer, and it is built to match the listed OE-style configuration for those vehicles. The PN3043 designation is useful when verifying the correct replacement during fuel system service.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- Hard starting caused by weak or inconsistent fuel delivery
- Engine stalling from low fuel pressure
- Inaccurate fuel gauge readings from a worn sending unit
- Fuel pump noise or intermittent pump operation
- Poor drivability related to failing in-tank pump components
Installation Notes and Tips
Confirm the vehicle year, make, and model before installation. This module uses a specific-fit design with two connectors, an 8-terminal layout, and a quick-connect outlet, so connector style and tank configuration should be matched before service. The package includes the fuel pump module assembly with float arm, seal, and instruction sheet; mounting hardware and lock ring are not included.
For best results, inspect the tank, electrical connector, and fuel lines before installing the new module. Replace any damaged seals or contaminated components in the fuel system as needed.
Quality Assurance
Sparta is distributed by Delphi, an OE full-line fuel supplier, and is positioned for earlier-model, higher-mileage vehicles where fit and fuel system performance matter. PN3043 is a standard replacement fuel pump module assembly built to OE-style specifications for the listed Ford Explorer and Mercury Mountaineer applications.
