Detailed Description

Spectra Premium electrical fuel pumps are engineered to supply the engine with the proper amount of fuel at the required pressure. The SP1145 is listed for 1998-2002 Ford and Mercury applications, with notes that matter for correct installation and service. This part number, SP1145, is associated with module assemblies that use metal support rods only, and several listings specify a production-date cutoff for 1999 vehicles. For buyers searching for a Ford Contour fuel pump, Mercury Cougar fuel pump, or Ford Mustang fuel pump replacement, this application-specific listing helps narrow the correct match.

This part cross-references Airtex Fuel Pumps (e.g., E2390) and Delphi (e.g., FG1357) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Hard starting caused by weak fuel delivery.
• Engine hesitation from inconsistent fuel pressure.
• Fuel starvation under load.
• Poor drivability related to pump wear.
• Replacement needs for module assemblies with metal support rods only.

Installation Notes

Verify the module style before installation. This listing applies only to modules with metal support rods, and some 1999 vehicles require a specific build-date match. The fitment notes also state that a new fuel strainer must be installed where applicable, or warranty coverage is void. Confirm the vehicle application against the fitment table before service.

Quality Assurance

Spectra Premium states that its electrical fuel pumps are designed to provide the proper fuel amount and pressure for dependable engine performance. Follow the listed fitment notes and service requirements to maintain coverage and ensure the correct application.
