ELECTRIC FUEL PUMP

The electric fuel pump has a permanent magnet

electric motor (1) which controls the pump (2) impeller

and a terminal support cover (3) which contains the

electrical and hydraulic connections.

The pump stage is the single, peripheral flow type

with high performance under low voltage and

temperature conditions.

FUELPUMPOPERATIONCHECKINGPROCEDURE:

a. Remove fuel filler cap.

b. Release the fuel system pressure. (Refer Fuel

pressure relief procedure)

c. Turn ignition switch ‘ON’

d. Check fuel pump operation by listening to the

sound at fuel pump end.

e. If no sound is heard, measure voltage between

fuel pump electrical connector wire to chassis

ground. The voltage should be approx. 12V.

f. If voltage is not correct, check for fuel pump relay

and related wiring harness.

g. If you do not measure 12V, check for continuity of

fuel pump connector as per circuit diagram.

h. If there is continuity, replace fuel pump.

i. If there is no continuity, repair the ground circuit.

FUELPUMPPRESSURECHECKINGPROCEDURE:

a. Release the fuel system pressure. (Refer Fuel

pressure relief procedure)

b. Remove fuel delivery connector.

c. Connect fuel pressure gauge (having a range of 0

- 10bar) to the delivery port of the fuel pump.

d. Confirm battery voltage (12V)

e. Turn ignition switch ON to operate fuel pump and

after 2 seconds turn it OFF. Repeat this 3-4 times

and measure fuel pump pressure. It should be 4.5

bar.

f. If it is not within specification, replace fuel pump.

1. If the pressure is high, check for

(i) Fuel delivery line for any blockage.

(ii) If the delivery line is clean, replace fuel pump.

2. If the pressure is too low, check for

(i) Block delivery line and check if pressure rises.

(ii) If pressure does rise, reassemble fuel pump.

B. INTANK FUEL PUMP (TANK UNIT):

The electric fuel pump is assembled in a single unit

with the level gauge.

1. Fuel supply connector

2. Fuel return connector

3. Electrical connection

4. Electric fuel pump

5. Fuel level sensor
