The high pressure fuel system pressurizes the fuel Low Pressure Fuel System
prior to injection. The fuel is transfered to the injectors
through double wall fuel lines. The fuel injectors
are used to produce atomized fuel during the fuel
injection cycle. Flow limiters are used to limit the total
flow of fuel to the injector to a preset level.
Note: The number of fuel filters for the fuel system Note: Fuel leakage into the outer wall of the double

High Pressure Fuel System
Electronic Control System for Fuel
Delivery
Fuel delivery is controlled by the Electronic Control
Module (ECM) and various electric components.
The following components are used by the ECM to
provide the correct fuel delivery for the engine:
The high pressure fuel flows from the pump and the
fuel is filtered by in-line high pressure fuel filter (30).
The high pressure fuel then enters high pressure
fuel lines (double wall fuel line) (23) and the fuel is
delivered to fuel injectors (26). A small amount of
fuel return flow that is expected returns to the tank
through fuel lines (24). Flow limiter valve (25) limits
the maximum flow of fuel to each injector.
