Fuel Conditioning Module

ENGINE CONTROL COMPONENTS

Fuel Conditioning Module
The internal components of the fuel conditioning module include the following:
- electric fuel pump
- 10 micron fuel filter and water separator
- water in fuel (WIF) sensor
- recirculation thermostat

The electric fuel pump draws fuel from the fuel tank through the fuel supply line. When the fuel enters the fuel conditioning module, water is separated from the fuel before it flows through the 10 micron fuel filter which separates particles from the fuel. The separated water collects at the bottom of the pump. If enough water is collected, the WIF sensor detects it and the PCM illuminates the WIF indicator. The conditioned fuel is then delivered to the secondary fuel filter.

The vented fuel from the fuel pressure control valve returns from the secondary fuel filter through the fuel return port and enters the unfiltered side of the fuel conditioning module. Depending on the fuel temperature returning from the secondary fuel filter, the recirculation thermostat directs the fuel to the fuel tank or through the fuel conditioning module back to the inlet of the primary filter.
