Detroit Diesel Fuel Pump Repair Kits

A fuel pump is one of the most critical components in any Detroit Diesel two-stroke or four-stroke engine. When the pump begins to wear or malfunction, operators face fuel delivery issues, loss of power, increased fuel consumption, and potential downtime. A properly matched fuel pump repair kit restores efficiency and ensures the engine can continue performing in demanding marine and industrial environments.

Diesel Pro Power provides complete Detroit Diesel fuel pump repair kits engineered to fit a wide range of engine series, trusted by more than 40,000 customers in 180+ countries. Whether you are maintaining a 71 Series powering a tugboat, a 92 Series running in a standby generator, or a 149 Series on a commercial vessel, our kits deliver reliable solutions to keep your Detroit Diesel engine performing at its best.


Why Choose a Fuel Pump Repair Kit?

Extending Pump Life

Instead of replacing the entire pump, a repair kit allows you to rebuild the existing unit with new seals, springs, valves, and gaskets. This extends service life and restores functionality at a fraction of the cost of a complete pump replacement.

Restoring Fuel Efficiency

A worn fuel pump can allow pressure drops, leaks, or irregular flow. A rebuild ensures proper pressurization, smoother injector operation, and improved combustion efficiency, lowering operational fuel costs.

Preventing Downtime

Marine and industrial operators cannot afford breakdowns. A kit-based repair can be completed faster than sourcing and replacing an entire pump assembly, minimizing equipment downtime.

Marine & Industrial Applications

Marine Use

Detroit Diesel engines are a backbone of marine propulsion and auxiliary systems. In boats and ships, a failing fuel pump can leave operators stranded or unable to complete missions. Fuel pump repair kits are commonly used during routine drydock service or in emergency repairs, restoring confidence in long voyages.
