CHARGE AIR COOLER AND
PLUMBING
DESCRIPTION
The charge air system (Fig. 28) consists of the
charge air cooler piping, charge air cooler and intake
air grid heater.
The charge air cooler is a heat exchanger that uses
air flow from vehicle motion to dissipate heat from
the intake air. As the turbocharger increases air
pressure, the air temperature increases. Lowering
the intake air temperature increases engine effi-
ciency and power.
OPERATION
Intake air is drawn through the air cleaner and
into the turbocharger compressor housing. Pressur-
ized air from the turbocharger then flows forward
through the charge air cooler located in front of the
radiator. From the charge air cooler the air flows
back into the intake manifold.

(4) Connect the 0-414 kPa (0-60 psi) fuel pressure
test gauge (from Gauge Set 5069) to the test port on
the appropriate Adaptor Tool.The DRBtIII Scan
Tool along with the PEP module, the 500 psi
pressure transducer, and the transducer-to-test
port adapter may also be used in place of the
fuel pressure gauge.
The fittings on both tools must be in good
condition and free from any small leaks before
performing the proceeding test.
(5) Start engine and bring to normal operating
temperature.
(6) Observe test gauge. Normal operating pressure
should be 339 kPa +/±34 kPa (49.2 psi +/±5 psi).
(7) Shut engine off.
(8) Pressure should not fall below30 psi for five
minutes.
(9) If pressure falls below 30 psi, it must be deter-
mined if a fuel injector, the check valve within the
fuel pump module, or a fuel tube/line is leaking.
(10) Again, start engine and bring to normal oper-
ating temperature.
(11) Shut engine off.
(12)Testing for fuel injector or fuel rail leak-
age:Clamp off the rubber hose portion of Adaptor
Tool between the fuel rail and the test port ªTº on
Adapter Tool. If pressure now holds at or above 30
psi, a fuel injector or the fuel rail is leaking.
(13)Testing for fuel pump check valve, filter/
regulator check valve or fuel tube/line leakage:
Clamp off the rubber hose portion of Adaptor Tool
between the vehicle fuel line and test port ªTº on
Adapter Tool. If pressure now holds at or above 30
psi, a leak may be found at a fuel tube/line. If no
leaks are found at fuel tubes or lines, one of the
check valves in either the electric fuel pump or filter/
regulator may be leaking.
Note: A quick loss of pressure usually indicates a
defective check valve in the filter/regulator. A slow
loss of pressure usually indicates a defective check
valve in the electric fuel pump.
The electric fuel pump is not serviced separately.
Replace the fuel pump module assembly. The filter/
regulator may be replaced separately on certain
applications. Refer to Fuel Filter/Fuel Pressure Reg-
ulator Removal/Installation for additional informa-
tion.STANDARD PROCEDURE - FUEL SYSTEM

FUEL TANK
DESCRIPTION
The fuel tank is constructed of a plastic material.
Its main functions are for fuel storage and for place-
ment of the fuel pump module.
OPERATION
All models pass a full 360 degree rollover test
without fuel leakage. To accomplish this, fuel and
vapor flow controls are required for all fuel tank con-
nections.A rollover valve(s) is mounted into the top of the
fuel tank (or pump module). Refer to Emission Con-
trol System for rollover valve information.
An evaporation control system is connected to the
rollover valve(s) to reduce emissions of fuel vapors
into the atmosphere. When fuel evaporates from the
fuel tank, vapors pass through vent hoses or tubes to
a charcoal canister where they are temporarily held.
When the engine is running, the vapors are drawn
into the intake manifold. Certain models are also
equipped with a self-diagnosing system using a Leak
Detection Pump (LDP). Refer to Emission Control
System for additional information.
REMOVAL
WARNING: GASOLINE POWERED ENGINES: THE
FUEL SYSTEM IS UNDER A CONSTANT PRESSURE
EVEN WITH THE ENGINE OFF. BEFORE SERVICING
THE FUEL TANK, FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE MUST
BE RELEASED. REFER TO THE FUEL SYSTEM
PRESSURE RELEASE PROCEDURE BEFORE SER-
VICING THE FUEL TANK.
Two different procedures may be used to drain fuel
tank (lowering tank or using DRB scan tool). When
equipped with a diesel engine, the DRB scan tool
cannot be used (no electric fuel pump).
The quickest draining procedure involves lowering
the fuel tank.
Gasoline Powered Engines:As an alternative
procedure, the electric fuel pump may be activated
allowing tank to be drained at fuel rail connection.
Refer to DRB scan tool for fuel pump activation pro-
cedures. Before disconnecting fuel line at fuel rail,
release fuel pressure. Refer to the Fuel System Pres-
sure Release Procedure in this group for procedures.
Attach end of special test hose tool number 6541,
6539, 6631 or 6923 at fuel rail disconnection (tool
number will depend on model and/or engine applica-
tion). Position opposite end of this hose tool to an
approved gasoline draining station. Activate fuel
pump and drain tank until empty.
If electric fuel pump is not operating, tank must be
lowered for fuel draining. Refer to following proce-
dures.
(1) Remove fuel tank filler tube cap.
(2) Perform Fuel System Pressure Release proce-
dure as described in this group.
(3) Gasoline Engines: Disconnect negative battery
cable at battery. Diesel Engines: Disconnect both neg-
ative battery cables at both batteries.
(4) Raise vehicle on hoist.
(5) Certain models are equipped with a separate
grounding wire (strap) connecting the fuel fill tube
assembly to the body. Disconnect wire by removing
