The Story
Fuel Pump Module Assembly for Subaru Legacy and Outback
Sparta PN3217 is a standard replacement fuel pump module assembly for select 2006-2009 Subaru Legacy and 2006-2009 Subaru Outback models. Built for in-tank gasoline applications, it includes the fuel sending unit, strainer, fuel filter, gasket/seal, and float arm for a complete service replacement.
Key Features
- Specific-fit fuel pump module assembly for select Subaru applications
- In-tank electric turbine pump design for gasoline fuel systems
- 12-volt operation with blade terminals and a single rectangular connector
- Includes fuel sending unit, strainer, fuel filter, gasket/seal, and float arm
- Quick-connect outlet design with two outlets and 0.375 in. outlet outside diameter
- Standard replacement grade for higher-mileage and earlier model vehicles
- Maximum pressure rating: 80 psi; minimum pressure rating: 51 psi
- Average flow rating: 45 and average current draw: 8
Detailed Description
Sparta PN3217 is engineered as a direct-fit fuel pump module assembly for 2006-2009 Subaru Legacy and 2006-2009 Subaru Outback models. It is an in-tank, electric turbine-style assembly for gasoline fuel systems and is supplied with the fuel sending unit to support accurate fuel level reporting. The module also includes a strainer, internal fuel filter, nitrile rubber gasket/seal, and float arm for a complete replacement package. Sparta, distributed by Delphi, is positioned for higher-mileage and earlier model vehicles, with OE-informed fit and performance considerations. This part cross-references Airtex Fuel Pumps E8651M for the same application. Part number PN3217 is also referenced against Spectra Premium SP4057M for the same application.
What This Part Helps Address
- Hard starting caused by weak fuel delivery
- Engine hesitation from inconsistent fuel pressure
- Fuel gauge errors tied to a worn sending unit
- Loss of power under load from reduced pump output
- Noise or drivability issues from an aging in-tank module
Installation Notes and Tips
Confirm the vehicle is a 2006-2009 Subaru Legacy or 2006-2009 Subaru Outback before installation. Replace the tank seal during service, verify connector style and outlet configuration, and inspect the fuel lines and electrical connector before reassembly. Because mounting hardware and lock ring are not included, reuse or source the required service components as needed. PN3217 is a specific-fit module, so matching the original tank layout and electrical connection is important for proper installation.
Quality Assurance
Sparta is distributed by Delphi, an OE full-line fuel supplier, and this module is built with OE-focused fit and performance in mind for the listed Subaru applications. PN3217 is a standard replacement fuel pump module assembly for gasoline vehicles requiring an in-tank solution.
