Universal Fuel Lift Pump for John Deere 940-4040 Series and Renault Ares/Ceres Tractors

Description

There’s nothing worse than being halfway through planting or right in the middle of harvest when your tractor starts sputtering and losing power. More often than not, it’s not the expensive injection pump that’s the problem—it’s this much simpler fuel lift pump that’s given up the ghost. This mechanical workhorse pulls diesel from your tank and feeds it steadily to the injection pump, keeping your engine running smooth from idle to full throttle.

What You’re Getting

• Mechanical diaphragm design that runs off your engine’s camshaft—no electrical connections to fail
• Universal fit across John Deere 20, 30, and 40 series tractors plus Renault models
• Proper fuel pressure delivery that keeps your injection system happy
• Quality diaphragm material that handles fuel additives and temperature swings
• Direct bolt-on replacement with standard fittings and gaskets

Built for Real Farm Work

This pump fits an impressive range of tractors, from smaller utility models like the 1030 up to heavy-duty workhorses like the 4040. Whether you’re running a 2640 in the hayfield, depending on a 3130 for loader work, or putting a 4040 through heavy tillage, consistent fuel delivery is what keeps you moving. These mechanical pumps work constantly whenever your engine runs, handling everything from nearly empty tanks to completely full ones, summer diesel to winter blends.

Made to Last

Simple mechanical design means there’s less to go wrong compared to electric pumps. The diaphragm technology is powered directly by your engine’s camshaft or pushrod—no wiring to corrode, no complex electronics to fail in dusty conditions. Quality construction handles the constant cycling these pumps endure, while internal check valves prevent fuel from draining back to the tank when you shut down.

Good to Know

Keep things clean during installation—any dirt that gets into your fuel system can damage expensive injectors downstream. Mark your inlet and outlet positions before removing the old pump, and don’t overtighten the new one since these seal with gaskets, not brute force. Prime the system after installation to remove air, and if your tractor’s been running rough, test this pump’s output before condemning the injection pump—you might solve the problem for a lot less money.
