Fuel Pressure: Testing and Inspection
Fuel System Diagnosis
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The fuel supply system is a returnless design. Most of the fuel system components are located inside the fuel tank. When the ignition switch is turned
to the START position and the engine is cranking, the circuit opening relay energizes the fuel pump. The fuel pump will continue to operate if the
powertrain control module (PCM) receives a reference signal when the engine is started. The fuel pump operates as long as the circuit opening relay is
energized by the PCM. When the circuit opening relay is de-energized, the fuel pump will stop operating. The fuel pump delivers fuel to the fuel rail
at high pressure. The fuel pressure regulator, located in the fuel tank, is responsible for keeping the fuel pressure at 301-347 kPa (44-50 psi).
