INSTALLATION
(1) Install the sealing ring onto the sensor and
screw the fuel pressure sensor into the fuel rail.
(2) Tighten the senor to 60 N·m (44 ft. lbs.), back
it off 90 degrees and retighten to 80 N·m (59 ft. lbs.)
(Fig. 4).
(3) Connect the sensor wiring harness connector.
CAUTION: Care must be taken when installing the
engine cover. Assure the proper routing of the fuel
injector return fuel hose to the banjo bolt fitting in
the left rear corner of the cover. Failure to do so
may pinch or damage the hose causing fuel leakage
or a driveability concern.
(4)
(Refer to 14 - FUEL SYSTEM - WARNING).
Start engine, allow to run for a few minutes, turn the
engine off and inspect for leaks.
FUEL PUMP
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - HIGH PRESSURE PUMP
WARNING: (Refer to 14 - FUEL SYSTEM - WARN-
ING)
The high pressure pump is a fuel regulated radial
piston pump with three pistons arranged at an angle
of 120°. The regulation being carried out by the fuel
quantity valve. The high pressure pump is driven at
about 1.3 times the speed of the camshaft. Specific
moving parts inside the pump are graphite coated to
assist with the lubrication process during operation.
The high pressure pump is mounted to the front of
the cylinder head and must be replaced as an assem-
bly should a failure occur (Fig. 5).
DESCRIPTION - LOW PRESSURE PUMP
The electric fuel pump is located in the fuel tank.
The pump draws warm or hot fuel from the fuel tank
module bowl and also draws cool fuel out of the tank.
The cool fuel is drawn in and is mixed with the fuel
already in the bowl in a 50–50 mix ratio. Refer to
fuel pump module for servicing (Refer to 14 - FUEL
SYSTEM/FUEL DELIVERY/FUEL TANK MODULE
- REMOVAL).
OPERATION
OPERATION
LOW PRESSURE SIDE
The fuel supplied by the low pressure pump flows
through the fuel supply (5) at the high pressure
pump and is passed to the fuel quantity valve (11)
and the fuel pressure relief valve (9). Any air
entrained by the fuel is directed through the restric-
tor (10) through the bleed port (7) to the return flow
(6). The quantity control valve (11) controls the
amount of fuel that flows along the ring passage (4)
through the supply ports to the three high pressure
pump elements. To lubricate the plunger and barrel
assemblies when the quantity control valve is closed
