DeVille V8-4.9L VIN B (1995)
CONSTRUCTION
Electrical power to the fuel pump enters the unit by way of a connector which is attached to the cover. An internal wire harness and connector
assembly connects to the fuel pump and level sensor.
The modular design adds additional functions that improve accuracy and ensure constant, steady fuel supply under all conditions. All components
and subassemblies of the modular sender attach to a common cover and access the fuel tank through a single opening.
The modular fuel sender assembly is spring loaded to the bottom of the fuel tank. This "bottom referencing" permits continuous fuel pickup and
accurate fuel level sensing.
The reservoir assembly is the lower section of the modular unit which encases the GEN III turbine pump. A retainer attaches to the top of the
reservoir. Fuel is captured and maintained in reservoir at a level sufficient to submerge the GEN III turbine pump.
A rubber bumper (pad) is assembled between the bottom of the reservoir and the fuel sender strainer. This promotes noise isolation by acting as a
buffer between the reservoir bottom and the fuel tank and provides a fastening mechanism for the fuel level sensor assembly to the reservoir.
Two quick-connect pipe end fittings are molded onto the cover of the modular unit for ease of unit removal from the fuel tank. These
quick-connect end fittings allow fuel feed and fuel return.
