An electric fuel pump includes a pump proper (1) having a pump body (2) that includes an induction orifice (3), a delivery orifice (4), and electrical terminals (5,6). A cage (7) is arranged around said pump body. A filtering element (15) is connected to the cage and communicates with the induction orifice. A tubular vibration damping element (16) is arranged about the cage. A pump casing (17) is assembled about the vibration damping element so that the vibration damping element is disposed between the pump casing and the cage to prevent contact.
