This is a Genuine Nissan lift pump fuel primer assembly, designed to fit the fuel filter housing on Nissan Navara D40 models. This component is essential for priming the fuel system after a fuel filter change or if the system has drawn in air. It ensures a solid, air-free stream of diesel is ready for the high-pressure pump, allowing for quick and reliable engine starts.
The diaphragm inside the factory lift pump can perish over time from constant exposure to diesel fuel and engine bay heat cycles. This allows air to bleed into the fuel system, which can cause difficult starting, especially when the vehicle has been sitting for a while. A failing primer may also fail to build pressure when pumped, or you might notice fuel weeping from the housing. This complete assembly is the direct solution to restore proper fuel system function. This kit includes a new diesel fuel filter but does not include the fuel filter seal.
Installation is generally a straightforward job suitable for a competent DIY mechanic using basic hand tools. Access to the fuel filter assembly is typically clear in the engine bay. When replacing this pump, it is highly recommended to inspect all connected fuel hoses and clamps for any signs of perishing, cracking, or fatigue.
Please check vehicle fitment to confirm compatibility with your vehicle. Please contact us with your VIN details if you require further assistance to confirm fitment.
