GENERAL INFORMATION

The power supply system consists of the fuel tank installed under a back part of the car, the electric fuel pump shipped in a tank, the fuel filter, the fuel highway and returnable fuel hoses. The fuel pump gives fuel to the fuel highway which also performs functions of the tank for fuel nozzles. The fuel filter installed between the fuel highway and the fuel pump makes purification of fuel.

Prevention

The fuel system is under pressure a long time after switching off of the engine. At any separation of fuel-supply lines it is necessary to take off previously pressure in fuel system.
