All Vehicles
Fuel Tank Filler Pipe
The fuel tank filler pipe is of steel construction and is fitted with a one way vent valve fuel filler cap.
Roll-Over Valve
The roll-over valve is located in the upper side of the fuel tank. It prevents fuel loss from the fuel tank if the vehicle should become inverted. Fuel tank ventilation is also achieved through the roll-over valve into the evaporative emission canister. Sealing is achieved by means of a rubber gasket.
Fuel Tank
The fuel tank is of plastic construction and is fitted by means of two steel support straps which are bolted to the underside of the vehicle. Fuel tank ventilation is achieved through the fuel tank roll-over valve.
Fuel Lines
The fuel supply and return lines are a made from a combination of plastic and steel construction. The steel lines are fitted by means of clips to the underside of the vehicle. The plastic lines are used to connect the fuel tank, fuel filter(s) and engine fuel system components to the steel lines.
Vehicles with Diesel Engine
Fuel Filter and Housing
The fuel filter and housing have a water separator located in the lower section. To release water, rotate the water separator clockwise, by hand.
Fuel Level Sensor
The fuel level sensor is of the conventional float operated, variable resistor type and is located in the fuel tank. It is fitted by means of a plastic locking ring and sealing is achieved by means of a rubber gasket.
Vehicles with Petrol Engine
Fuel Pump Module
The fuel pump module is located in the fuel tank. It has an integral fuel level sensor and is fitted by means of a plastic locking ring. Sealing is achieved by means of a rubber gasket.
Fuel Filter
The fuel filter is of the canister type, located adjacent to the fuel tank and fitted by means of a clamp to the underside of the vehicle.
Inertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) Switch
An inertia fuel shutoff (IFS) switch is located inside the vehicle, behind the left-hand cowl side trim panel adjacent to the powertrain control module. It is designed to cut the electrical supply to the fuel pump module in the event of an accident or parking impact, therefore reducing the risk of fire.
