Parts for your 2008 Mitsubishi Outlander-Fuel pump

2008 Mitsubishi Outlander fuel pump — what it does, why it matters, and how to look after it

Yes, a fuel pump is absolutely relevant to the 2008 Mitsubishi Outlander. Technical references including the Mitsubishi Motors Service Manual for the 2007–2012 Outlander (Group 13A/13D – Fuel) and the Mitsubishi ASA/EPC parts catalogue identify an in-tank electric fuel pump module on petrol models (common module part numbers include 1770A269), while diesel variants use a high-pressure supply pump on the engine and, depending on market, an in-tank lift pump. So the Outlander runs a fuel pump by design, and it’s a key part of how the car delivers reliable performance and economy.

On petrol Outlanders, the in-tank electric pump draws fuel from the tank and feeds the engine at steady pressure. It usually sits inside a plastic module with a strainer, level sender, and a built-in regulator for a returnless setup. That steady pressure keeps cold starts crisp, throttle response tidy, and emissions in check. On diesel versions, the pump system ensures consistent supply to the high-pressure rail so the injectors can do their precise work.

As part of routine servicing, there’s no scheduled pump replacement interval
