This fuel system is designed with consideration for
global environment protection to ensure safety at a
collision, reduce weight, and improve reliability and
quality. This system has the following features:

｠

A quick-joint connector of a plastic tube is used for
the fuel high-pressure hoses in the engine
compartment to reduce the permeation of fuel
evaporative emission.

｠

The surface of underfloor fuel pipes is coated with
1-mm thickness of resin to improve resistance to
corrosion and chipping.

｠

A returnless fuel system eliminates returned fuel
from the engine. The heat that fuel receives from
the engine is reduced, minimizing fuel temperature
in the fuel tank and controlling the amount of
evaporated gas.

FUEL TANK

The fuel tank assembly consists of the fuel pump
module, the fuel level sensor (sub) <AWD>, the fuel
tank, and so on, and features the following
characteristics:

｠

The fuel tank is mounted underneath the second
seat to improve safety at a collision.

｠

The fuel tank itself is made of a pre-coat zinc alloy
galvanized steel sheet that contains no lead.

｠

The capacity of the fuel tank is 63 dm3(16.6 gal)
<FWD> or 60 dm3(15.8 gal) <AWD> to meet long-
distance drives.

｠

The fuel cut-off valve, fuel tank 2 way valve, fuel
tank leveling valve and fuel tube have been installed

using in-tank construction to reduce the amount of
evaporated fuel from hoses.

｠

A in-tank fuel filter and fuel suction hose are
adopted to meet the saddleback shaped fuel tank.

The fuel pump module consists of the following
components:

｠

Fuel pump

｠

Fuel level sensor

｠

Fuel filter

｠

Fuel pump pressure regulator

｠

Fuel tank differential pressure sensor

｠

Fuel tank temperature sensor
