Seal out fuel vapor and keep the fuel pump module mated tightly to the tank with the Spectra Premium Fuel Pump Tank Seal (MPN LO109). It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-1999 Hyundai Accent, 1996-2000 Hyundai Elantra, and 1997-2001 Hyundai Tiburon.
Over time a fuel tank seal can harden, crack, or take a set, which may let fuel odor or seepage escape around the pump flange. If a failed tank seal is the cause of that condition, replacing it with LO109 restores the sealing surface. Because a fuel smell can have other sources, diagnose the leak point before ordering.
Interchange: Manufacturer part number LO109.
What does this part do?
It seals the joint between the fuel pump / sending-unit assembly and the fuel tank opening, helping keep fuel and vapor from escaping around the flange.
Which vehicles does the LO109 fit?
It is cataloged for the 1995-1999 Hyundai Accent, 1996-2000 Hyundai Elantra, and 1997-2001 Hyundai Tiburon. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your vehicle.
When should I replace the tank seal?
It is commonly replaced any time the fuel pump or sending unit is removed, and if a hardened or cracked seal is the cause of a fuel odor or seepage at the pump flange.
Is this the same as the fuel pump?
No. This is the seal that mates the pump module to the tank, not the pump itself. It is sold as the seal only.
Can a fuel smell always be fixed by this seal?
Not always. A fuel odor can come from other sources, so diagnose the leak point first; if the tank seal is the cause, LO109 replaces it.
