9Refitting is a reversal of removal, ensuring
that the disturbed hoses are securely
connected.
Refer to Chapter 1, Section 36.
Removal
1The fuel pressure regulator is located on the
left-hand side of the engine compartment
(see illustration).2Disconnect the battery negative lead.
3Identify the fuel hose locations, as an aid to
refitting. Note that there are three hose
connections on models without a fuel flow
sensor unit, and two hose connections on
models with a fuel flow sensor unit.
4Disconnect and plug the fuel hoses.
5Remove the two securing screws and
withdraw the regulator.Refitting
6Refitting is a reversal of removal, ensuring
that the fuel hoses are correctly connected. If
the hoses were originally secured with
crimped type clips, discard them and use new
worm drive clips.

1On SOHC models, the vapour separator is
located on the left-hand side of the engine
compartment. On CVH models, the vapour
separator is located on the right-hand side of
the engine compartment (see illustrations).
2Disconnect the battery negative lead.3Identify the fuel hose locations as an aid to
refitting, then disconnect and plug the hoses.
4Remove the two securing screws and
withdraw the vapour separator.

5Refitting is a reversal of removal, ensuring
that the fuel hoses are correctly connected. If
the hoses were originally secured with
crimped type clips, discard them and use new
worm drive clips.
Mechanical pump
1On SOHC engines, the fuel pump is located
on the left-hand side of the cylinder block,
next to the oil filter. On CVH engines the fuel
pump is located on the rear right-hand corner
of the cylinder head.
2To test the pump, disconnect the ignition
coil LT “-/1” lead to prevent the engine from
firing.
3Disconnect the outlet hose from the pump,
and place a wad of rag next to the pump
outlet (see illustration). Take appropriate fire
precautions.
4Have an assistant crank the engine on the
starter motor, and check that well-defined
spurts of petrol are ejected from the fuel
pump outlet. If not, the pump is faulty.
Dispose of the petrol-soaked rag safely.

5On some early pumps, the top cover can be
removed for access to the filter. Removing the
pump and cleaning the filter may cure the
problem. On models with a sealed pump, or
where cleaning the interior of the pump and
filter does not solve the problem, the pump
should be renewed, as no spares are
available. Check that there is petrol in the fuel
tank before condemning the pump!
6On completion of the test, reconnect the
outlet hose to the pump. If the hose was
originally secured with a crimped type clip,
discard this and use a new worm drive clip.
Reconnect the coil LT lead.

7The fuel pump is located under the rear of
the vehicle, next to the fuel tank (see
illustration).
8If the pump is functioning, it should be
possible to hear it “buzzing” by listening
under the rear of the vehicle when the ignition
is switched on.
9If the pump appears to have failed
completely, check the fuse and relay.
10To test the pump, disconnect the fuel
supply hose from the pressure regulator or
vapour separator (as applicable) in the engine
compartment. Lead the hose into a measuring
cylinder.
11Take appropriate fire precautions, then
switch on the ignition for 30 seconds (do notstart the engine), and measure the quantity of
petrol delivered: it should be at least 400 ml
(0.7 pint). If not, the pump is faulty and should
be renewed, as no spares are available.
12On completion of the test, reconnect the
hose to the pressure regulator or vapour
separator, as applicable, and if the hose was
originally secured with a crimped type clip,
discard this and fit a new worm drive clip.
2.0 litre DOHC models
13If the fuel pump is functioning, it should
be possible to hear it “buzzing” by listening
under the rear of the vehicle when the ignition
is switched on. Unless the engine is started,
the fuel pump should switch off after
approximately one second.
14If the pump appears to have failed
completely, check the appropriate fuse and
relay, and where applicable check the state of
the fuel pump inertia cut-off switch as follows.
15The inertia cut-off switch is located in the
spare wheel well. The switch incorporates a
reset button, which should normally be in the
depressed position. Check the position of the
reset button before assuming that a fault
exists in the fuel pump.
16To test the fuel pump, special equipment
is required, and it is recommended that any
suspected faults are referred to a Ford dealer.
Mechanical pump
Note: A new gasket must be used when
refitting the pump.
1Disconnect the battery negative lead.
2For improved access on CVH models,
remove the air cleaner.
3Identify the hose locations as an aid to
refitting, then disconnect the hoses from the
pump and plug them.
4Remove the two securing bolts and
withdraw the pump from the cylinder block or
cylinder head, as applicable (see illustration).
5Recover the gasket, and if desired remove
the operating pushrod (see illustration).6Clean the exterior of the pump with paraffin
and wipe dry. Clean all traces of gasket from
the pump flange and the cylinder block or
cylinder head, as applicable.
7On early pumps with a removable top
cover, remove the securing screw and
withdraw the cover and the nylon mesh filter
with seal (see illustration). Clean the filter,
the cover and the pump with petrol. Locate
the filter in the cover and fit the cover to the
pump, so that the indentations on the cover
and pump are aligned. Tighten the cover
securing screw.
8Refitting is a reversal of removal, but fit a
new gasket, and tighten the securing bolts to
the specified torque. Ensure that the hoses
are correctly connected, and if the hoses were
originally secured with crimped type clips,
discard these and use new worm drive clips.

9Disconnect the battery negative lead.
10Chock the front wheels, then jack up the
rear of the vehicle and support on axle stands.
(see “Jacking and Vehicle Support”).
11Clean the area around the pump
mounting, and position a suitable container
under the pump.
12Using a hose clamping tool or self-locking
pliers, clamp the fuel tank-to pump hose to
prevent excessive petrol spillage, or
alternatively make arrangements to collect the
contents of the fuel tank which will otherwise
be released. Disconnect the hose from the
pump.
13Disconnect the fuel outlet hose from the
pump and plug the hose to prevent petrol
spillage.
14Disconnect the wiring plug from the
pump.
15Slacken the clamping bolt, and slide the
pump from the bracket assembly.
16Refitting is a reversal of removal, but
make sure that the rubber sleeve is correctly
located around the pump body in the bracket,
and ensure that the fuel hoses are securely
