Detailed Description

Sparta PN3042 is built as a standard replacement fuel pump module assembly for earlier-model, higher-mileage vehicles. Backed by Delphi OE fuel system expertise, it is engineered for fit and performance in gasoline-powered applications and is configured as an in-tank unit with an external strainer and quick-connect outlet. This module is a direct replacement choice for 2006-2010 Chevrolet Cobalt, 2007-2009 Pontiac G5, and 2006-2007 Saturn Ion fuel system service. This part cross-references Airtex Fuel Pumps (e.g., E3726M, E3782M) for the same application.

Common Repair Applications

• Hard starting or no-start conditions related to fuel delivery
• Fuel gauge inaccuracies caused by a worn sending unit
• Low fuel pressure from a failing in-tank pump module
• Intermittent engine hesitation from inconsistent fuel supply
• Fuel system service on high-mileage Chevrolet Cobalt, Pontiac G5, or Saturn Ion vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Install this module in the fuel tank using the included seal and lock ring. Verify connector shape, terminal count, outlet style, and pressure requirements before installation. Because mounting hardware and wire harness are not included, reuse or source any required vehicle-specific components as needed. Confirm tank cleanliness and inspect the fuel lines and electrical connector before reassembly.
