Product Overview
The feed/lift pump draws diesel from the boat’s fuel supply and delivers it toward the filtration and injection system. Air intrusion, weak pumping action or diaphragm wear can cause hard starting, loss of prime and fuel starvation at higher engine load.
Research for 129158-52101 also links the pump family with several 3JH/3YM and related Yanmar marine applications. Marine installations can differ in hose routing and engine revision, so the engine model tag and original pump number remain the best checks.
Key Features & Performance
- Designed for low-pressure fuel transfer on compatible Yanmar marine diesels
- Reference 129158-52101 for straightforward cross-checking
- Relevant to multiple JH-series configurations, not only a single boat model
- Useful replacement for pumps that leak, lose prime or no longer supply fuel consistently
