GENERAL INFORMATION
Throughout this group, references are made to a
particular vehicle by letter designation. A chart
showing the breakdown of these designations is in-
cluded in the Introduction Section at the front of this
service manual. The Fuel System consists of the fuel tank, fuel
pump, fuel filter, throttle body, fuel injectors, fuel
tubes and vacuum tubes. The Fuel Delivery System consists of the fuel
pump, fuel filter, fuel lines and fuel hoses. The Fuel Tank Assembly consists of the fuel tank,
filler tube, a fuel gauge sending unit assembly and a
pressure-vacuum filler cap. Also, the Evaporation Control System is part of the
fuel system. The evaporation control system is de-
signed to reduce the emission of fuel vapor into the
atmosphere. The description and function of the Evaporation
Control System is found in Group 25 of this manual.FUEL REQUIREMENTS
Your vehicle was designed to meet all emission
regulations and provide excellent fuel economy when
using high quality unleaded gasoline.
VEHICLES WITHOUT TURBOCHARGED ENGINES
Use unleaded gasoline having a minimum octane
rating of 87.
VEHICLES WITH TURBOCHARGED ENGINESÐEXCEPT 16 VALVE 2.2L ENGINES
These vehicles will operate satisfactorily on both
regular unleaded gasoline having a minimum octane
rating or 87, and premium unleaded gasoline having
a minimum octane rating of 91. The use of premium
unleaded gasoline will improve performance.
VEHICLES WITH 2.2L 16 VALVE ENGINES
The use of premium unleaded gasoline having a
minimum octane of 91 is recommended. If premium
unleaded is not available, then unleaded gasoline

GENERAL INFORMATION
Beginning this model year, Chrysler began produc-
ing AA-Body vehicles designed to operate on a mix-
ture of gasoline and methanol. These automobiles are
referred to as Flexible Fuel vehicles. Flexible fuel vehicles can operate on a mixture of
up to 85 percent methanol, 15 percent unleaded gas-
oline. These vehicles also operate on mixtures con-
taining a lower percentage of methanol or just pure
unleaded gasoline. In many cases, the procedures for servicing flexible
fuel components is identical to gasoline only compo-
nents. Refer to the particular Service Procedure in
this section. If the service procedure for flexible fuel
component differs from a gasoline only component,
the title of each service procedure identifies the ap-
plication.
SERVICE PRECAUTIONS FOR FLEXIBLE FUEL
VEHICLES
Methanol is more toxic than gasoline. Always re-
lease fuel system pressure before servicing fuel sys-
tem components and wear methanol resistant gloves
and eye protection. Avoid breathing methanol vapors or ingesting
methanol. Headaches, dizziness and even uncon-
sciousness could result from breathing these vapors.
Serious injury, blindness and even death could result
from ingesting methanol. Methanol vapors are extremely flammable and can
travel along the ground. Service vehicles in well ven-
tilated areas and avoid ignition sources. Never
smoke while servicing the vehicle. Do not allow methanol to contact skin. Prolonged
contact with methanol can cause dry skin or an al-
lergic skin reaction. Also, prolonged contact could re-
sult in absorption through the skin.
IDENTIFYING FLEXIBLE FUEL COMPONENTS
Flexible Fuel vehicles have unique methanol com-
patible fuel system components. Chrysler identifies
methanol compatible components that could be phys-
ically interchanged with gasoline only parts by color-
ing them green or applying a green label or tag to
them. Even though they may appear physically iden-
tical, components for gasoline only vehicles must not
be used on flexible fuel vehicles.
FLEXIBLE FUEL COMPONENTS
Flexible fuel AA-body vehicles uses many unique
fuel system components. The unique parts are green
in appearance or have a green tag or label attached
to them. While components used on gasoline only ve-
hicles may look similar or identical, they cannot be
used on flexible fuel vehicles. When servicing a com-
ponent, always use an original equipment or equiva-
lent flexible fuel replacement. The fuel system of flexible fuel AA-body vehicles
have the following unique components.
² Fuel pump module
² Fuel level sensor
² Fuel gauge (gauge cluster).
² Fuel tank
² Fuel pressure regulator (including O-rings)
² Fuel rail
² Fuel injectors (including O-rings)
² Fuel tubes
² Fuel filter
² EVAP canister
² Fuel filler cap
² Fuel filler tube
² Pressure relief/Rollover valve
² All fuel system and emission system hoses and
tubes
Ä FUEL SYSTEMS 14 - 3

INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER IDENTIFICATIONÐFLEXIBLE FUEL AA-BODY
Flexible fuel A-Body vehicles use a unique gauge
cluster. To identify the cluster, remove it from the
instrument panel and check the number on the tag
on the top. If the part number matches the number
in the parts book for flexible fuel A-bodies, the vehi-
cle was built with the correct cluster. Refer to Group
8E, Instrument Panel and Gauges, for cluster re-
moval and installation.
METHANOL CONCENTRATION SENSORÐFLEXIBLE
FUEL AA-BODY
The methanol concentration sensor contains a mi-
croprocessor that determines the percentage of gaso-
line and methanol in the fuel system. From the
methanol concentration sensor input, the powertrain
control module (PCM) determines the amount of
methanol in the fuel. The vehicle can operate on a
mixtures up to 85 percent methanol, 15 percent gas-
oline. The methanol concentration sensor output voltages
varies with the percent of methanol in the fuel sys-
tem. The sensor output voltage (input for PCM)
ranges from 0.5 volts for pure gasoline to 4.75 volts
for 85 percent methanol. For two seconds at key ON
when the operator starts the vehicle, the sensor cal-
ibrates the PCM. During the calibration period the
sensor sends 4.45 volts to the PCM as a correction
factor. The methanol concentration sensor has a built-in
shutdown capability. If the sensor shuts down, it de-
faults to the previous learned value (output voltage
based on methanol percentage of fuel). The methanol concentration sensor attaches to a
bracket at the rear of the fuel tank, next to the fuel
filler tube (Fig. 1).

(1) Loosen fuel filler cap to release fuel tank pres-
sure. (2) Disconnect injector wiring harness connector at
edge of throttle body (Fig. 4). (3) Connect a jumper wire between terminal Num-
ber 1 of the injector harness and engine ground. (4) Connect a jumper wire to the positive terminal
Number 2 of the injector harness and touch the bat-
tery positive post for no longer than 5 seconds .
This releases system pressure. (5) Remove jumper wires.
(6) Continue fuel system service.
FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE RELEASE
PROCEDUREÐ3.0L
(1) Disconnect the fuel rail electrical harness from
the engine harness. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Dia-
grams. (2) Connect one end of a jumper wire to the A142
circuit terminal of the fuel rail harness connector. (3) Connect the other end of the jumper wire to a
12 volt power source. (4) Connect one end of a jumper wire to a good
ground source. (5) Momentarily ground one of the injectors by
connecting the other end of the jumper wire to an in-
jector terminal in the harness connector. Repeat pro-
cedure for 2 to 3 injectors.
FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY
The fuel pump assembly consists of the fuel pump
and the reservoir body. The reservoir body takes the place of an internal
fuel tank reservoir. The reservoir maintains fuel at
the pump inlet during all driving conditions, espe-
cially when the fuel level is low. The system uses a positive displacement, gerotor
gear, immersible pump with a permanent magnet
electric motor (Fig. 5). The pump draws fuel through
a strainer and pushes it through the electric motor to
the outlet. The pump contains three check valves.
One valve relieves internal fuel pump pressure and
regulates maximum pump output. Another valve, in-
side the pump assembly in the fuel return circuit,
prevents fuel tank leakage if the line is damaged
during an accident. The third valve, in the pump out-
let, maintains pump pressure during engine off con-
ditions. The fuel pump relay provides voltage to the
fuel pump. All pumps have a maximum stall pres-
sure output of approximately 930 kPa (135 psi). All front wheel drive car fuel systems, except
Turbo III and flexible fuel AA-body vehicles use the
same fuel pump. Turbo III and flexible fuel AA-Body
vehicles each use different fuel pumps although they
look similar to pumps used in other vehicles. Release fuel system pressure before servicing the
fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel lines, fuel filter, or parts of
the fuel rail. Follow the Fuel System Pressure Re-
lease procedure to relieve fuel system pressure.
