Detailed Description

Delphi FG1357 is a fuel pump module assembly engineered for gasoline vehicles with an in-tank pump layout. It uses a 12.0-volt electric pump, a quick-connect outlet, and a 5-terminal blade connection. The module includes the fuel level sender assembly, external strainer, and seal, making it a complete service solution for the listed Ford and Mercury fitments. Delphi draws on OE experience and supplier knowledge developed over decades of original-equipment production, which is reflected in the design and application coverage of this replacement part.

This part cross-references Airtex Fuel Pumps E2273M and Carter P74954M for the same application. It is listed for 1999-2000 Ford Contour, 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, and 1999-2000 Mercury Mystique, with notes calling for fuel tank cleaning before installation on certain applications. The Delphi FG1357 is also referenced by part number FG1357 for easy catalog matching.

What It Helps Fix

• Hard starting caused by a weak or failing in-tank fuel pump
• Engine stalling from inconsistent fuel delivery
• Fuel gauge errors related to a worn sender assembly
• Low fuel pressure in gasoline systems requiring a module replacement
• Noise or performance issues from an aging fuel pump module

Installation Notes

Before installing the Delphi FG1357, clean the fuel tank to reduce the risk of contamination-related pump failure. This is especially important on the listed Ford Contour, Mercury Cougar, and Mercury Mystique applications where tank debris can shorten service life. Verify the outlet style, terminal count, and in-tank configuration against the original module before installation.

Use the included seal during service and follow the vehicle-specific instructions provided in the package. The module is intended for gasoline fuel systems only.

Quality Assurance

Delphi builds aftermarket parts using OE experience and knowledge gained from supplying major automakers. The FG1357 reflects that background with application-specific design, standard replacement construction, and coverage for select Ford and Mercury vehicles.
