A high-quality mechanical fuel lift pump, designed for older Perkins engines (e.g., 4.98NT). It is a key component of the fuel system, responsible for drawing fuel from the tank and delivering it under low pressure to the injection pump. The robust metal construction and precise diaphragm mechanism guarantee stable pressure and reliable fuel flow.

The list above is for reference. It is crucial to ensure that your machine is fitted with an older type Perkins engine.
When replacing the pump, always replace the fuel filters (primary and secondary) to protect the entire system from contaminants. Check the condition of the fuel lines and replace them if necessary. We recommend high-quality REDX brand filters.
The lift pump is crucial for proper engine operation. Its failure leads to problems with fuel delivery to the injection pump, resulting in unstable engine performance, loss of power, and, in extreme cases, immobilization of the machine.
A faulty fuel lift pump risks damaging the injection pump.
Operating with a worn lift pump strains the injection pump and can lead to its seizure. Don't take the risk – order a new, reliable FEROSTEM pump and restore stable fueling and full power to your engine.

This is one of the most common causes. Insufficient output from the lift pump "starves" the injection pump. Other causes include clogged fuel filters, leaks in the system (sucking in air), or a failure of the injection pump itself.
2. What is the difference between a mechanical and an electric fuel pump?A mechanical pump, like this one, is driven mechanically by the engine's camshaft. An electric pump is powered by the machine's electrical system. In older engines, like the Perkins 4.98NT, mechanical pumps were the standard.
3. The machine won't start after changing the filters. What should I do?Most likely, the fuel system is aerated. You need to use the hand lever on this fuel pump to draw fuel from the tank and pump it through the filters. Pump until fuel flows without air bubbles from the loosened bleed screw on the filter head.
