The Mazda 626 Fuel Pump is a device that maintains the flow of gasoline from the tank to the engine at the pressure required by the engine at all times to ensure a smooth start and reliable power. Initial prototypes of the model applied a mechanical diaphragm pump screwed to the engine and powered by a camshaft eccentric, which worked fine with the carbureted versions of the time as it provided low pressure of about six pounds per square inch and recovered by itself when the carburetor float bowl was full. With the increasing horsepower, more powerful flow mechanical units, which were still cam-operated, were introduced, but these frequently required an external regulator to prevent flooding. When the model line was given electronic fuel injection, Mazda moved to the in-tank electric design. This small motor is submerged in fuel and rotates each time the ignition passes voltage through a relay, producing the 40 to 60 psi that the injectors require and keeping the motor cool and silent. The internal mounting will also reduce the risk of fire as any leakages will be contained in the closed tank. Onboard electronics, in case of an accident or a decrease in oil pressure, turn off the pump to prevent any damage. The two types of pumps have the same purpose, but they are located differently; they differ in their modes of drive and operating pressure, as mechanical drives rely on the movement of the engine and electric units are powered by an external motor. Knowing what system your Mazda runs on is useful when diagnosing hard starts and ensuring the existence of voltage or checking pressure to ensure that the Fuel Pump is pumping the correct volume. The Fuel Pump ensures that every Mazda commute is smooth for the driver of a 626.
