Ford EcoSport Fuel Pump: Specs, Fitment & Common Faults

A simple priming-hum test and fuse check can save you from replacing a perfectly good fuel pump — worth doing before assuming the worst.

OEM Part Number: confirm via VIN — fuel pumps (aftermarket) Bosch 0 580 454 094 and Bosch 0 580 454 093 / Delphi FE0545-12B1

Accuracy note: Covers the Ford EcoSport (2013-) as listed in the UK aftermarket catalogues. In-tank fuel pumps are sold two ways: as a complete feed unit (the pump in its swirl pot with the fuel-level sender and float) or as a bare pump that is fitted into the old housing, and petrol and diesel versions are not interchangeable — most diesels have only a low-pressure lift pump in the tank, with the high-pressure pump on the engine. The references below are UK aftermarket catalogue listings for this generation, labelled by brand; genuine numbers are shown only where a listing quotes one. Check fuel type, the plug pin count and whether your car has one sender or two (saddle tanks on 4x4 and some larger cars) against your VIN before ordering.

Fuel pumps / feed units (aftermarket)	Bosch 0 580 454 094 and Bosch 0 580 454 093 (bare in-tank pumps); Bosch 0 580 254 911 (universal in-line pump); Delphi FE0545-12B1 (pump assembly with gaskets); Magneti Marelli 313011300014 (tank pump, 4 bar / 120 l/h); Ridex 1382F0030 (petrol in-tank feed unit with sender, 3 bar / 100 l/h, 4-pin); Ridex 1382F0078 (diesel in-tank feed unit with sender, 0.5 bar / 100 l/h, 4-pin); Ridex 458F0007 (petrol in-tank pump, 4 bar / 100-120 l/h); ERA 770162A (pump, 3.2 bar / 120 l/h, 2 connectors)
Types & variants	Only the two Ridex modules are complete feed units with sender, one petrol at 3 bar for the 1.0 EcoBoost and 1.5 Ti-VCT and one diesel at 0.5 bar for the 1.5 TDCi and EcoBlue. Everything else is a bare in-tank pump insert (Bosch, Ridex 458-series, Magneti Marelli, ERA) or a low-pressure in-line pump (ERA 770034A at 0.2 bar, Pierburg 7.21440.51.0 at 0.3-0.4 bar, Ridex 458F0008, 3RG 80011 pre-supply pump). No Hüco, Astemo, VDO or Hella module is listed.
Genuine (OE) numbers quoted	Meat & Doria 76416 = 170429F500 (a Nissan number); Meat & Doria 76041 = 8941674933 (carburettor pump, not for this car).
Fitment notes	The listings mix genuine EcoSport parts with generic pumps, so the Ridex modules and the Bosch inserts are the ones to rely on. A Bosch insert can be fitted into the old housing, keeping the sender; the Ridex modules replace it. Petrol and diesel modules differ sharply in pressure.

A Genuine Diagnostic Step Worth Trying First — Ford EcoSport Fuel Pump

Before assuming the Ford EcoSport's fuel pump itself has failed, it's worth trying a simple, genuinely useful check: with the ignition turned to "on" but the engine not yet started, you should hear a faint 2-3 second hum from the rear of the car as the pump primes the fuel system. If you hear nothing at all, check the fuel pump fuse first — commonly fuse F56 in the passenger cabin fuse box on many Ford models, though always confirm your specific car's fuse layout — before assuming the pump itself needs replacing. A blown fuse is a considerably cheaper fix, and it's a genuinely common cause that gets overlooked in favour of jumping straight to pump replacement.

General wear symptoms worth knowing: engine sputtering or hesitation under acceleration, a longer-than-usual crank before starting, a noticeable whining or buzzing noise from the rear of the car near the fuel tank, and stalling at low speeds or idle are the classic signs of a genuinely failing pump rather than a blown fuse or other simpler fault.

Ford EcoSport Fuel Pump: A Part That Fails at the Worst Possible Moments

Rather than failing conveniently while parked, this component on the Ford EcoSport tends to give up mid-journey, which is about the worst possible moment. Learning to recognise the early symptoms is the best defence against being caught out.

Before you buy: fuel pump specifications vary by engine size and fuel type, and petrol/diesel versions are never interchangeable. Always confirm against your VIN before ordering.

Ford EcoSport Fuel Pump: What It Does

The Ford EcoSport's fuel pump function — pulling fuel from the tank and pressurising it for the engine — is straightforward, but its usual location isn't: it sits submerged inside the tank itself, which is precisely why access for replacement is more work than the part's size suggests.

Accuracy note: these are documented patterns by generation and engine family, not a substitute for confirming your exact engine code — always verify against your V5C before ordering, since petrol and diesel pumps are never interchangeable.

2013–present, 1.0 EcoBoost petrol	Petrol (direct injection): in-tank low-pressure pump plus a separate engine-mounted high-pressure pump
2013–present, 1.5 TDCi diesel	Diesel: in-tank lift pump feeds a separate engine-mounted high-pressure injection pump (common rail) — never interchangeable with the petrol pump
