1 General information and
precautions
General information
The fuel supply system consists of a fuel
tank (which is mounted under the rear of the
car, with an electric fuel pump immersed in it),
a fuel filter, fuel feed and return lines. The fuel
pump supplies fuel to the fuel rail, which acts
as a reservoir for the four fuel injectors which
inject fuel into the inlet tracts. The fuel filter
incorporated in the feed line from the pump to
the fuel rail ensures that the fuel supplied to
the injectors is clean.
Refer to Section 9 for further information on
the operation of each fuel injection system.
Precautions
Warning: Petrol is extremely
flammable - great care must be
taken when working on any part
of the fuel system. Do not smoke
or allow any naked flames or uncovered
light bulbs near the work area. Note that
gas powered domestic appliances with pilot
flames, such as heaters, boilers and tumble
dryers, also present a fire hazard - bear this
in mind if you are working in an area where
such appliances are present. Always keep a
suitable fire extinguisher close to the work
area and familiarise yourself with its
operation before starting work. Wear eye
protection when working on fuel systems
and wash off any fuel spilt on bare skin
immediately with soap and water. Note that
fuel vapour is just as dangerous as liquid
fuel; a vessel that has just been emptied of
liquid fuel will still contain vapour and can
be potentially explosive. Petrol is a highly
dangerous and volatile liquid, and the
precautions necessary when handling it
cannot be overstressed.
Many of the operations described in this
Chapter involve the disconnection of fuel
lines, which may cause an amount of fuel
spillage. Before commencing work, refer to
the above Warning and the information in
“Safety first” at the beginning of this
manual.
When working with fuel system
components, pay particular attention to
cleanliness - dirt entering the fuel system
may cause blockages which will lead to
poor running.
