FUEL SYSTEM

The fuel delivery system major components comprise a fuel tank, a fuel pump and four injectors.

Fuel Tank

The fuel tank is located on the underside of the vehicle, forward of the rear suspension subframe. The tank is constructed from moulded plastic and is retained by a tubular cradle which is secured to the vehicle floorpan with four bolts. The fuel tank has a capacity of 60 litres (13.2 Gallons).

5. Fuel filter
6. Swirl pot
7. Fuel pump
8. Fuel tank

A reflective metallic covering shields the tank from heat generated from the exhaust system. An aperture in the top surface of the tank allows for the fitment of the fuel pump.

The fuel tank filler is located on the right hand rear wing panel and is protected by a lockable plastic cap. A plastic tube from the filler is connected to the tank by a flexible rubber tube. A vent pipe is connected to the neck of the filler to vent fuel vapour during filling of the tank. A smaller vent pipe is also connected to the tank and vents fuel vapour from the tank to a charcoal cannister located in the engine compartment.
