trunk FORD E SERIES 2003 4.G Natural Gas Vehicle Supplement Manual

Crown Victoria
1.NGV module-Provides power for the fuel injectors. Also, drives the
fuel gauge using fuel tank pressure and temperature sensors.
2.Isolation solenoid valve-Blocks flow from the injection manifold
when the engine is off.
3.Engine-Is a modified 4.6L engine with Sequential Electronic Fuel
Injection (SEFI) and increased compression ratio.
4.Engine coolant lines-Provide required heat to high pressure
regulator.
5.Powertrain control module-Required for NGV application.
6.Sealed vent box-Vented to underbody. Dispenses natural gas vapor
to atmosphere if vapor becomes present.
7.Tank pressure sensor-Fuel tank pressure sensor located in this
tank’s solenoid valve is used for fuel indication.
8.Solenoid tank valves-One solenoid per tank. Internal valves with
shut-off solenoids wired into inertia circuit for crash protection.
9.Two fuel tanks-Located in the trunk. On taxi or police vehicles, an
extended range fuel system is available which includes two additional NG
fuel tanks mounted in the trunk (total of three).
10.Fueling point-Fueling receptacle is conveniently located with the
fuel door. Same location as gasoline fueled vehicles.
11.Tank shield-Protective shield able to prevent damage to the fuel
tanks caused by trunk cargo.

12.Tank temperature sensors-One each in set of tanks (solenoid
valves) used for fuel indication.
13.Optional fuel tank-A fiber-wrapped steel fuel tank (total of three
tanks in the trunk). Also has a sealed vent box which vents to the
underbody. Dispenses natural gas vapor to the atmosphere if vapor is
present.
14.Two fuel tanks-Located underbody to facilitate fuel system design.
15.Stone and heat shield-Protective shield able to prevent damage to
the fuel tanks caused by road debris or other road hazards.
16.High pressure fuel lines-Delivers high pressure fuel to the pressure
regulator.
17.Pressure regulator and coalescent fuel filter assembly-Reduces
the fuel pressure to the fuel injection pressure of 125 psi.
18.Low pressure fuel lines-Supplies 125 psi of natural gas to the
engine.
19.Fuel rail sensors-One injection pressure sensor and one engine fuel
temperature sensor provide engine fuel information to the PCM.
ADAPTERS
DO NOTuse fuel receptacle adapters when refueling your vehicle.
The profiles of both the natural gas vehicle receptacle and the fuel
station nozzles are specified by ANSI/AGA NGV1-1994, CGA NGV1-M94.
These profiles are specified for compressed natural gas vehicles and fuel
stations for safety purposes. Three separate adapter profiles are
available. P24, P30 and P36 respectively, are specified for the three
different service pressures of 16,500 kPa (2,400 psi), 20,700 kPa (3,000
psi) and 24,800 kPa (3,600 psi).
Your vehicle’s service pressure may be 20,700 kPa (3,000 psi) or 24,800
kPa (3,600 psi), depending upon application. Refer to the label on the
fuel filler door:
•If your vehicle’s fuel system is rated at 20,700 kPa (3,000 psi), it can
be refueled using a P30 or P24 nozzle. However, use of a P24 nozzle
will result in an incomplete fill.
•If your vehicle’s fuel system is rated at 24,800 kPa (3,600 psi), it is
refueled using a P36 nozzle only.
DO NOT over pressurize the CNG fuel system or damage to the
fuel system and possible personal injury may occur.
