FUEL
PUMP
The
electric
fuel
pump
ís
mounted
in
the
fuel
tank
in
tandem
with
the
right
side
fuelleve¡
sender
.
The
fuel
pump
delivers
fuel
at
high
pressure
to
the
fuel
injection
system
.
A
pressure
regulator
maintains
system
pressure
.
The
quantity
of
fuel
sup-
plied
exceeds
demand,
so
excess
fuel
retums
to
the
fuel
tank
via
a
retum
líne
.
See

Injection
for
more
information
on
system
pressure
and
the

.

NOTE-
The
traction
control
system
referred
to
as
AST
(all
sea-
son
traction)
may
also
be
referred
to
as
ASC
(Automat-
ic
Stability
Control)
and
ASC+T
(Automatic
Stability
Control+Traction)
.
The
AST
system
improves
traction
by
electronically
apply-
ing
the
rear
brakes
when
therear
drive
wheels
are
spinning
at
a
faster
rate
than
the
front
wheels
.
The
combined
ABS/AST
control
module,
operating
through
the
ABS
hydraulic
control
unit,
modulates
braking
force
at
therear
wheels
.
In
addition,
AST
uses
retarded
ignition
timing
and
an
auxil-iary
engine
throttle
plate
to
reduceengine
torque
and
maintain
vehicle
stability
.
The
auxiliary
throttle
plate
is
held
open
by
spring
pressure
.
The
AST
system
actívates
the
auxiliary
throttie
position
motor
(ADS)
to
cose
the
AST
throttle
as
needed
.
This
reduces
the
volume
of
engine
intake
air
.
Due
to
the
throttle
closing
very
rapidly
during
AST
operationthe
driver
cannot
increase
theengine
power
output
regardless
of
how
far
theaccelerator
pedal
is
pushed
to
the
floor
.
The
auxiliary
throttle
plate
is
placed
ahead
of
the
conven-
tional
throttle
plate
in
the
throttle
body
.

control

comes
into

tion

Decelerating
on
snowy

surfaces
can

.
If
a
rear
wheel
startsto
drag
or
lock
up
when
the
throttle
is
closed
rapidly
orduringdownshifting,the
AST
system
can
limit
the
problem
by
advancing
the
ignition
timing
.
A
switch
on
the
center
console
is
used
to
togglethe
AST
on

.
The

There
