With the recent post about HFCM and gunk inside, heater degradation, etc, I thought it might be time to check into mine and possibly be ready to replace.
I have good fuel pressure, but just in case...
Can somebody verify the part number I need based on the schematic below?
9G282 or 9275 ? When I look at the illustration my first thought is that 9G282 encompasses the whole thing? but it's less expensive.
The 9G282 is everything including the pump, mount, filter housing, and cap. The 9275 is just the pump and sender. It must be cheaper somehow just on how they package it. Cheaper to buy the whole thing rather than just a piece of it. Weird.
The actual part # for the whole thing is 6C3Z-9G282-C..............just 9G282 is the call out number only, Ford adds numbers and letters to the actual part number.
that other call out number does not make sense from the screen shot, the only thing I can find with that call out number comes back to various sending units for tanks.
Not that uncommon for an entire part to be cheaper than all the components that comprise said part. There is less work with one part, less storage, handling.......not always the case of course but not uncommon.
I learned that after working in parts for a implement dealership and paint equipment company for seven years, often it paid to see what an entire part cost instead of a component, especially in light of what the labor might cost to replace just part of an entire component.
If you have a pump failure and you are trying to replace it cost effectively you can just buy the pump itself, without the housing and everything else.
