Product Overview
The fuel pump moves fuel from the tank toward the carburetor or injection system so the engine receives a steady supply. Hard starting, hesitation under load, fuel starvation or an engine that loses power can point to a weak supply pump after filters and lines have been checked. Replacing the failed component can restore normal operation without changing unrelated parts that are still serviceable.
John Deere catalogs fuel-pump applications across the LX172/LX173/LX176/LX178/LX186/LX188 family. Pump/fitting configurations vary across the wider LX range, so match the existing pump and model before ordering, particularly on LX279/LX289 applications.
