Delphi FE0133 Fuel Pump and Strainer Set

Fuel Pump and Strainer Set for OE-Style Fuel Delivery

The Delphi FE0133 fuel pump and strainer set is a standard replacement for in-tank gasoline fuel systems that need consistent pressure and clean fuel delivery. Built from Delphi’s OE heritage and backed by decades of supplier experience, it is a practical choice for Volkswagen Cabriolet, Fox, Passat, Golf, and Jetta applications.

Application and Fitment Details

Compatible With 1985-1993 Volkswagen Cabriolet, 1987-1993 Volkswagen Fox, 1990-1993 Volkswagen Passat with 19 MM, 1985-1992 Volkswagen Golf, and 1985-1992 Volkswagen Jetta. This Delphi FE0133 is a direct-fit fuel pump and strainer set for in-tank gasoline systems across these Volkswagen models.

This part cross-references Bosch 69481 and Airtex E8200 for the same application.

What This Fuel Pump Helps Address

• Hard starting caused by weak fuel delivery
• Fuel starvation under load or at higher demand
• Low fuel pressure that affects drivability
• Noise or inconsistency from an aging in-tank pump
• Restricted flow from a worn or contaminated strainer

Installation Notes and Tips

Clean the fuel tank before installation to reduce the risk of premature pump failure and seal issues. Delphi also recommends tank cleaning for the 1990-1993 Volkswagen Passat, and use of fuel tank cleaning kit FC01 is noted for that application. The package includes the fuel pump and strainer set plus an instruction sheet; gasket or seal and wiring harness are not included.

Quality Assurance

Delphi draws on more than 100 years of OE experience and a long history supplying major automakers. That OE background is reflected in the FE0133’s standard replacement design, fuel-system specifications, and application coverage for classic Volkswagen models.
