Detailed Description

Delphi MF0016 is engineered as a mechanical fuel pump replacement for Jeep vehicles that use a gasoline fuel system. The pump features a hose bead inlet, a threaded outlet, and a 1/2-20 UNF outlet fitting thread size, making it a practical service part for restoring fuel delivery on older Jeep platforms. With a 7 psi system pressure rating and 25 average flow rating, it is built to meet the needs of standard replacement applications.

This part cross-references Airtex Fuel Pumps 6736 and Carter M6736 for the same application. It is also listed among interchange references including AMF0016 and SP1020MP. The Delphi MF0016 is a relevant choice for Jeep Grand Wagoneer, Jeep Cherokee, and Jeep CJ7 fuel system repair where the original mechanical pump has worn out or lost output.

What It Is Used For

• Restoring fuel pressure when the engine cranks but fuel delivery is weak
• Addressing hard-start conditions caused by a failing mechanical pump
• Correcting fuel starvation under load in classic Jeep applications
• Replacing a leaking pump body or worn internal diaphragm
• Returning stable fuel flow to carbureted gasoline systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify inlet and outlet style, thread size, and system pressure before installation. Use the included gasket during service and confirm all fuel line connections are clean and properly tightened. After installation, inspect for leaks and verify fuel delivery before returning the vehicle to service. This pump is listed for 1976-1981 Jeep CJ5 and CJ7, 1976-1983 Jeep Cherokee and Wagoneer, 1976-1988 Jeep J10 and J20, and 1984-1991 Jeep Grand Wagoneer.
