Detailed Product Overview
Sparta PN4071 is a fuel pump hanger assembly engineered for gasoline vehicles that use an in-tank electric pump and integrated fuel level sending unit. It features a turbine-style pump, metal hanger construction, a quick-connect outlet, and a 7-terminal round connector layout. With a 43 to 81 psi pressure range and an average flow rating of 24.0, this assembly is built to replace worn fuel delivery components on the 1996 Ford Explorer while maintaining proper sender and pump operation. PN4071 is distributed by Delphi, an OE fuel system supplier, and is positioned as a standard replacement for earlier-model, higher-mileage applications. This part cross-references Spectra Premium (e.g., SP154A, SP6042H) for the same application.
Common Problems This Part Addresses
- Hard starting caused by weak or failing in-tank fuel pump output
- Inaccurate fuel gauge readings from a worn sending unit
- Fuel starvation under load from restricted or aging pump components
- Intermittent pump operation from damaged hanger or electrical connections
- Fuel leaks at the tank module seal area
Installation Notes and Tips
Install this assembly only in the specified in-tank application for the 1996 Ford Explorer. Confirm connector shape, terminal count, outlet style, and fuel line routing before installation. Replace the seal during service and verify the float arm moves freely after the module is seated. Clean the tank and inspect the fuel system before reassembly to reduce contamination at the new strainer.
Quality Assurance
Sparta fuel system components are distributed by Delphi, an OE full-line fuel supplier with application knowledge focused on fit and performance for earlier-model vehicles. PN4071 is a standard replacement assembly built to OE-style specifications for the listed application.
