FUEL LINES
DESCRIPTION - FUEL LINES/HOSES AND
CLAMPS
Also refer to Quick-Connect Fittings.
WARNING: THE FUEL SYSTEM IS UNDER A CON-
STANT PRESSURE (EVEN WITH THE ENGINE OFF).
BEFORE SERVICING ANY FUEL SYSTEM HOSES,
FITTINGS OR LINES, THE FUEL SYSTEM PRES-
SURE MUST BE RELEASED. REFER TO THE FUEL
SYSTEM PRESSURE RELEASE PROCEDURE IN
THIS GROUP. THIS MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH.
The lines/tubes/hoses used on fuel injected vehicles
are of a special construction. This is due to the
higher fuel pressures and the possibility of contami-
nated fuel in this system. If it is necessary to replace
these lines/tubes/hoses, use new original equipment
lines/tubes/hoses.
If equipped: The hose clamps used to secure rub-
ber hoses on vehicles are of a special rolled edge con-
struction. This construction is used to prevent the
edge of the clamp from cutting into the hose. Only
these rolled edge type clamps may be used in this

system. All other types of clamps may cut into the
hoses and cause leaks.
Use new original equipment type hose clamps.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - HOSES AND CLAMP
Inspect all hose connections (clamps and quick con-
nect fittings) for completeness and leaks. Replace
cracked, scuffed, or swelled hoses. Replace hoses that
rub against other vehicle components or show sign of
wear.
Fuel injected vehicles use specially constructed
hoses. When replacing hoses, only use hoses marked
EFM/EFI.
When installing hoses, ensure that they are routed
away from contact with other vehicle components
that could rub against them and cause failure. Avoid
contact with clamps or other components that cause
abrasions or scuffing. Ensure that rubber hoses are
properly routed and avoid heat sources.
The hose clamps have rolled edges to prevent the
clamp from cutting into the hose. Only use clamps
that are original equipment or equivalent. Other
types of clamps may cut into the hoses and cause
high pressure fuel leaks. Tighten hose clamps to 1
N·m (9 in. lbs.) torque.
Inspect all hose connections such as clamps, cou-
plings and fittings to make sure they are secure and
leaks are not present. The component should be
replaced immediately if there is any evidence of deg-
radation that could result in failure.
Never attempt to repair a plastic fuel line/tube.
Replace as necessary.
Avoid contact of any fuel tubes/hoses with other
vehicle components that could cause abrasions or
scuffing. Be sure that the plastic fuel lines/tubes are
properly routed to prevent pinching and to avoid heat
sources.
FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR
DESCRIPTION
A combination fuel filter and fuel pressure regula-
tor is used on all gas powered engines. It is located
on the top of the fuel pump module.
It contains a diaphragm, calibrated springs and a
fuel return valve. The internal fuel filter (Fig. 8) is
also part of the assembly.
OPERATION
Fuel Pressure Regulator Operation: The pres-
sure regulator is a mechanical device that is cali-
brated to maintain fuel system operating pressure of
approximately 400 kPa ±34 kPa (58 psi ±5 psi.) at
the fuel injectors.
Fuel is supplied to the filter/regulator by the elec-
tric fuel pump through an opening tube at the bot-
tom of filter/regulator (Fig. 8).
The fuel pump module contains a check valve to
maintain some fuel pressure when the engine is not
operating. This will help to start the engine.
If fuel pressure at the pressure regulator exceeds
approximately 58 psi, an internal diaphragm closes
and excess fuel pressure is routed back into the tank
through the pressure regulator. A separate fuel
return line is not used with any gas powered engine.
REMOVAL

STANT

(1) Refer to Fuel System Pressure Release in the
Fuel Delivery System section of this group. The fuel
filter/fuel pressure regulator is located on the top of
fuel pump module. Fuel pump module removal is not
necessary.
(2) Raise vehicle on hoist.

(3) Disconnect fuel supply line at the Filter/Regu-
lator nipple (refer to Quick Connect Fittings in this
section).
(4) Depress locking spring tab on side of Fuel/Reg-
ulator (Fig. 9) and rotate 90° counter-clockwise and
pull out.
NOTE: Make sure that the upper and lower O-rings
are on the Filter/Regulator assembly.
INSTALLATION
Lightly lubricate the O-rings with engine oil.
(1)
Insert Filter/Regulator into the opening in the
fuel pump module, align the two hold down tabs with
the flange.
(2) While applying downward pressure, rotate the
Filter/Regulator clockwise until the the spring tab
engages the locating slot (Fig. 10).
(3) Connect the fuel line to the Filter/Regulator.
(4) Lower vehicle from hoist.
FUEL PUMP
DESCRIPTION
The electric fuel pump is located in and is part of
the fuel pump module. It is a positive displacement,
gerotor type, immersible pump with a permanent
magnet electric motor. The fuel pump module is sus-
pended in fuel in the fuel tank.
OPERATION
The pump draws fuel through a strainer and
pushes it through the motor to the outlet. The pump
contains a check valve. The valve, in the pump out-
let, maintains pump pressure during engine off con-
ditions, for a short while. It is normal for fuel
pressure to drop to zero after cooldown. The fuel
pump relay provides voltage to the fuel pump. The
fuel pump has a maximum deadheaded pressure out-
put of approximately 880 kPa (130 psi). The regula-
tor adjusts fuel system pressure to approximately
400 kpa ±34 kpa (58 psi ± 5 psi).

DESCRIPTION
The fuel pump module is installed in the fuel tank
(Fig. 11).
