Fuel Tank and Lines – 2.2L Duratorq-TDCi (88kW/120PS) - Puma/2.2L Duratorq-TDCi (96kW/130PS) - Puma/2.2L Duratorq-TDCi (110kW/150PS) - Puma/3.2L 310-01B-5 310-01B-5 Duratorq-TDCi (148kW/200PS) - Puma DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION very slow movement of the fuel gauge pointer from empty to full over approximately 15 minutes. In more extreme cases where the resistor card resistance is continuously outside the permitted range for more than 33 seconds, a DTC will be set in the CJB and the fuel gauge pointer will fall to its key-off position. In all cases where the fuel level sensor is suspected of being inoperative, worn or damaged, the Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS) diagnostic procedures must be followed before any parts are dismantled. The base of the fuel level sensor is a chamber that sits in the swirl bowl at the bottom of the fuel tank. Built into the chamber is a filter element. The fuel level sensor also incorporates a fuel jet pump. The return fuel from the fuel charging system is passed through a venturi in the jet pump which causes a pressure drop across an open orifice. This draws in fuel through the base of the unit which then passes through the fuel supply tube. Fuel Filter 1 2 3 6 4 5 E139711 Item Description 1 Fuel filter 2 Supply line fuel filter to engine 3 Return line from Engine to Filter 4 Return line fuel filter to fuel cooler 5 Supply line from tank to fuel filter 6 Water-in fuel sensor Fuel is delivered through the fuel supply lines to the fuel filter. The fuel filter cleans the fuel of water and contaminants. Unused fuel is returned to the fuel tank through the fuel cooler return line. The fuel filter is also equipped with a water-in-fuel sensor which measures the amount of water which has collected in the fuel filter element. Fuel Tank The fuel tank is of a plastic construction and has the capacity to hold 80 liters of fuel. The fuel tank is secured to the vehicle by two metal support straps bolted to the underside of the vehicle. Fuel filler 1 2 E129077 Item Description 1 Filler cap 2 Fuel tank filler pipe The fuel tank filler pipe incorporates a fuel tank vent pipe. The fuel tank vent pipe is connected to the top of the fuel tank and exits just below the top of the fuel tank filler pipe. The fuel tank vent pipe allows the displaced air above the fuel in the fuel tank to escape without pushing the fuel entering the fuel tank during refill back up the fuel tank filler pipe. This vehicle uses a lockable fuel filler cap. The fuel filler cap is sealed to the fuel filler neck. This is to prevent the escape of fuel vapor during normal operation and to prevent fuel loss in the event of a vehicle accident.
