Principles of Operation

The systems main components consist of a fuel pump, fuel rail, electrically operated fuel injectors and a fuel temperature sensor.

Fuel metering valve

The fuel pump consists of a transfer pump and a high-pressure fuel delivery pump. The transfer pump draws fuel from the fuel tank through the fuel filter and delivers the fuel to the three high-pressure fuel pump chambers through a fuel metering valve.

Fuel is also delivered to the high-pressure fuel pump chambers through a internal scavenging valve to lubricate and maintain fuel in the fuel pump.

The fuel metering valve controls the quantity of fuel that is allowed to enter the high-pressure fuel pump chambers. Excess fuel volume developed in the high-pressure fuel pump chamber is returned to the fuel tank. The fuel metering valve is controlled by the powertrain control module (PCM) using a pulse-width modulated signal.

The high-pressure fuel pump supply pressure is controlled by an electronic fuel metering valve which is also controlled by the PCM.

Fuel rail

 
Item
Part Number
Description
1
-
Fuel rail
2
-
Fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor

The fuel rail provides a reservoir of high-pressure fuel which is available for all four fuel injectors. The fuel rail also provides pulse damping of the pressure surges in high-pressure fuel system. Attached to the fuel rail is a FRP sensor. The FRP sensor monitors the fuel pressure in the fuel rail. The FRP sensor provides a controlled variable voltage signal to the PCM, which is converted into a pressure signal.

Fuel injector fuel delivery holes

The fuel injectors have a Piezoelectric actuator. The advantages of using Piezoelectric instead of traditional solenoid actuators are the reduction in reaction switching times and the lower switching currents. Both of which improve the control and therefore the efficiency of the fuel injector.

Fuel temperature sensor

 
Item
Part Number
Description
1
-
Fuel injector fuel return line
2
-
Fuel temperature sensor
3
-
Fuel pump fuel return line
4
-
Fuel tank fuel return line union

The fuel temperature sensor is installed into the fuel injector to fuel tank fuel return line. The temperature sensor monitors the temperature of the fuel returning to the fuel tank from the fuel injectors and sends a signal to the PCM.

Inspection and Verification

WARNING:
WARNING:Do not smoke or carry lighted tobacco of any type when working on or near any fuel related components. Highly flammable mixtures are always present and may ignite. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
WARNING:
WARNING:This procedure involves fuel handling. Be prepared for fuel spillage at all times. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.
CAUTION:
CAUTION:Diesel fuel injection equipment is manufactured to very precise tolerances and fine clearances. It is therefore essential that absolute cleanliness is observed when working with these components. Always fit blanking plugs to any open orifices or lines.
NOTE:
NOTE:As well as carrying out its normal function the glow plug indicator also acts as an engine check lamp which will flash continuously when a hard diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is detected by the powertrain control module (PCM). Soft DTCs are also stored by the PCM but will only be known if the system is checked for DTCs using Ford approved diagnostic tool.
NOTE:
NOTE:If a DTC is detected, all DTCs must be cleared after the concern is rectified. Failure to clear all DTCs may cause driveability concerns.
NOTE:
NOTE:If the fuel level in the fuel tank drops below approximately four litres, rough running will occur. This is to signal to the driver that the vehicle requires refuelling in order to prevent the fuel system from running dry.
  1. Verify the customer concern.
  1. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage.

  1. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to the next step.
  1. If the cause is not visually evident, verify the symptom and refer to the Ford approved diagnostic tool to retrieve the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).
  1. If no DTCs related to the concern are retrieved, proceed to the Symptom Chart below to continue diagnostics.
