Detailed Description

Carter P76173M is built as a specific-fit fuel pump module assembly for 2003-2005 Ford Thunderbird and 2003-2005 Lincoln LS right-side applications, including 2003 models built from 11/18/2002. This module is engineered for OE fit, form, and function, making it a practical replacement when servicing the in-tank fuel delivery system on these vehicles. The part number P76173M is also a useful reference when comparing listings for the same application.

This part cross-references Airtex Fuel Pumps E2388M and Delphi FG1198 for the same application. Carter’s fuel systems program focuses on vehicle coverage and problem-solving replacement features, and this module follows that approach with the sending unit, strainer, seal, and harness included in the assembly.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Hard starting caused by weak or failing fuel delivery
• Inaccurate fuel gauge readings from a worn sending unit
• Fuel starvation under load from a restricted or failing pump
• Fuel odor or seepage at the tank module seal
• Intermittent pump operation from damaged internal electrical components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify right-side placement before installation on your Thunderbird or LS. Confirm connector style, inlet and outlet sizes, and electrical connection details against the original module before removal. Because mounting hardware and lock ring are not included, reuse or source the required tank-side components as needed. Always relieve fuel system pressure and follow vehicle service procedures before servicing the tank module.

Quality Assurance

Carter builds this fuel pump module assembly to match OE-style fitment and function for the listed Ford Thunderbird and Lincoln LS applications. The design includes the key service components needed for a complete module replacement, helping support consistent fuel delivery and fuel level reporting.
