Detailed Description

Delphi FG1229 is engineered as an in-tank fuel pump module assembly for select 2000-2001 Kia Sephia vehicles. It is built for gasoline fuel systems and includes the fuel level sender assembly, helping restore both fuel delivery and tank level reporting in one service part. The module uses a quick-connect outlet, internal strainer, and a 12-volt electric pump layout with a 44 psi system pressure specification.

Delphi draws on OE-level fuel system knowledge developed over decades of supplying major automakers. That experience is reflected in the FG1229’s standard replacement design, which is intended to match the original fuel system layout on the listed Kia Sephia applications. Delphi FG1229 is also cross-referenced with MAHLE 67947 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Hard starting caused by weak or inconsistent fuel pressure
• Engine hesitation or stalling from inadequate fuel delivery
• Incorrect fuel gauge readings from a failing sender assembly
• Fuel starvation related to a worn in-tank pump or clogged strainer
• Fuel system service needs on 2000-2001 Kia Sephia models
