Fuel Tank and Lines

Fuel Tank and Lines

The fuel system consists of:

- an All-Wheel Drive (AWD) saddle-type or Front Wheel Drive (FWD) L-shaped fuel tank.
- fuel, vapor and brake tubes in an integrated bundle assembly.
- quick connect fuel and vapor tube couplings.
- a fuel tank filler pipe assembly, which cannot be modified in any way, that also contains a restrictor plate to permit only unleaded fuel to be pumped into the tank.
- a one-fourth turn-type fuel tank filler cap.
- an Inertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) switch.
- a Mechanical Returnless Fuel System (MRFS).
- a Fuel Pump (FP) module containing:
- the electric FP module which provides pressurized fuel to the engine.
- the fuel level sensor.
- a check valve which maintains system pressure after the pump is shut off.
- a pressure relief for overpressure protection in the event of restricted airflow.
- a fuel filter providing filtration to protect the fuel injectors from foreign material.

The FP module is controlled by the PCM. Electrical power to the FP module is provided through the IFS switch located under the LR quarter trim panel.

The AWD vehicles have 2 fuel level sensors, one mounted on the FP module located in the LH side of the fuel tank and a separate fuel level sensor located in the RH side of the fuel tank.
