SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Fuel supply system diagram showing tank, fuel pump and gauge, distribution manifold, injectors, and inertia switch.
  1. Tank
  2. Fuel pump and gauge
  3. Distribution manifold
  4. Injectors
  5. Inertia switch

The fuel feed system is returnless, i.e. a single pipe connects the fuel pump and the engine. Advantages are:

  • reduced possibility of the car catching fire after an accident
  • reduced fuel vapour emission in the atmosphere.

The filler cap is fitted on the steel fuel tank main casing.

The electrical fuel pump is contained in a frame which also houses the following components:

  • fuel pressure regulator
  • fuel gauge
  • fuel filter.

The system is equipped with an inertia switch which cuts fuel pump power in the event of an impact.
