The Fuel Pump of the Buick LaCrosse moves the gasoline from the tank to a carburetor or a fuel injection system. This ensures that your engine burns clean and pressurized fuel. The first Buick LaCrosse models offered carbureted engines with a camshaft-driven mechanical Fuel Pump that was mounted on the engine. The lever and diaphragm would pull fuel at about 6 to 15 psi, not so high as to overwhelm the float bowl but more than adequate for a daily driver. As the line of LaCrosse moved towards the fuel-injected version, designers applied an in-tank electric Fuel Pump which now sits inside the sending unit. Being bathed in fuel for cooling, this new pump can develop 40 to 60 psi, the pressure the injectors require. Many of today's Buick owners enjoy the quieter operation and extra safety. Both types of equipment are designed to produce a constant flow. The differences are in location, pressure capability, and activation method. Mechanical units work only when the cam turns. Conversely, electric units get energized with a relay when there's a return signal from the monitored circuit. When the performance rating is stated in gallons or liters per hour, it allows the driver to match a Fuel Pump to the horsepower demand readily. If cranking fails, a quick check of the voltage supplied to the Fuel Pump confirms whether or not it's at fault.
