Is there a fuel tank pump on a Ford Focus?
Peter. There is no fuel tank pump on the 1.6 or 1.8 TDCIs. Well that’s not strictly true, there is a pump, but Ford don’t use it. The fuel is sucked up by the High pressure pump before being sent to the rail. Just fill up the pipes and filter with fuel, connect it all up, job done, (use the filtered fuel)

What should I do if my fuel filter Cant start?
It can lead to leaks, or wear debris from the unions getting into the injectors. Using a hand pump (before the filter) to ram fuel (as hard as you can) into the main pump is the recommended procedure for these, or a good vacuum hand pump connected to the fuel return pipe from the diesel pump is also a good way to prime them.

What are the symptoms of a bad fuel pump?
Without gas your Focus will not run at all. With that in mind, most of the symptoms of a bad fuel pump revolve around the vehicle stalling out or not running at all. In modern fuel injected vehicles, the fuel pump sits right in the fuel tank and “pushes” the gasoline to the fuel rail (s).
