Fuel Tank and Lines
FUEL TANK AND LINESThe mechanical, returnless fuel system consists of:
- the fuel tank.
- the fuel tank filler pipe, which contains a restrictor plate to permit only an unleaded fuel nozzle to be inserted:
- the fuel tank filler pipe will contain a ground strap attached to the frame.
- a 1/4 turn fuel tank filler cap.
- a fuel filter providing filtration to protect the fuel injectors.
- fuel supply and return lines.
- a top-mount, bottom-referencing fuel delivery module containing:
- the electric fuel pump which provides pressurized fuel to the engine.
- the fuel level sensor.
- an inlet filter.
- a check valve which maintains system pressure after the pump is shut off.
- a pressure relief valve for overpressure protection in the event of restricted flow.
- a fuel pressure regulator.
The fuel pump is controlled by the PCM which energizes the fuel pump relay. Electrical power to the pump is provided through the inertia fuel shutoff (IFS) switch. The IFS switch is located underneath the RH cowl panel.
