fuel GEELY MK 2008 User Guide

2-13For servicing items whose deadlines have expired, they should be maintained at the same intervals as before. The
intervals are recorded in maintenance schedule.
Rubber hoses
Used in cooling and heating system, braking and fuel-feeding systems should be inspected by qualified Geely
technicians according to Geely maintenance schedule.
There are all very important maintenance items. Hoses must be replaced immediately should there be any aging
or damage. Please pay attention, rubber hoses age as time goes by, and they may have problems of inflation, wear,
or crack.

2-18Section 3 Daily Maintenance of MK SedanDaily maintenance means operation of vehicle regular inspection, cleaning, fastening, and refilling according to
vehicle usage and condition on the basis of regular maintenance to make sure the vehicle is at good status. Daily
maintenance can be performed by driver or professional automotive mechanics in daily use of vehicle. But some
of the items must be conducted by professional mechanics at service shops.
1. Maintenance of air cleaner
Air cleaner filters the air that is coming into engine for the first time. Dust and other dirt filtered out gathers in the
induction tube. Air cleaner filters a lot of dust and dirty, so it must be cleaned in time.
2. Maintenance of air filter
Air filter does not only filter the dust and dirt in the air, but also keeps smooth ventilation. Its status has great effects
on the fuel economy and power of the engine, so it must be checked and maintained in time.
Before it is time to replace air filter, maintain it. Remove the filter, knock it with hand or stick to get rid of dust
on the filter and remove dirt inside the filter cover according to the cleanness of the road that the vehicle usually
runs on.
ATTENTION: do not clean the filter with wet cloth. Fasten the filter well when installing it back.
3. Maintenance of battery
Battery is used to start the vehicle and supply power to electrical facilities. Its status directly affects the regular
usage of the vehicle, especially for vehicles equipped with electrical controlled facilities. Keeping the battery in
good technical status and connections is especially important. It is necessary to often perform the following
inspections and maintenance in regular usage:
(1) Clean the outside of battery Inspect if the battery case or cover surface is dirty or has dirt, oil, or other dirty
things regularly. Clean it and keep the surface dry to avoid electrical leak caused by cover deformation.
(2) Check battery connections Bad connection between battery electrode and cable results in low engine start
speed which makes it difficult to start the vehicle or the vehicle cannot be started because of low output voltage
from battery. Loose connection at battery end leads to damage of electrical components and loss of trouble code
and other information stored in RAM of the computer system as a result of low voltage. Therefore, it is necessary
to check if the connection of cables on the battery electrode is good. When it is found loose, it must be fastened.
If there is any rust, the cables must be loosened, washed clean and be connected again.
4. Maintenance of tires and wheels
(1) Keeping tires and wheels under good condition is very important to vehicle fuel consumption and driving
safety. Therefore, inspect and maintain the tires regularly. Every 10000 km, the wheels should be adjusted. Follow
the sequence in picture 3:
Judge if there is any hidden problems in vehicle chassis mechanism by observing wear in different places, andfinding out the hidden problems does not only help you to understand
the technical status of the vehicle, but also benefits driving safety.
a. Serious wear on both edges of tire tread, means tires often
work with low tire pressure.
b. Wear of middle of the tire tread is mainly because the tires
are used with high tire pressure.This kind of wear shortens
the useful life of tires, and may result in sudden flat tire
when the vehicle runs on uneven road surface or meets any
obstacles.Usage and Maintenance of MK Series - Daily Maintenance of MK Sedan

Chapter 3 Fuel SystemSection 1 Check Fuel System PressureOn-board inspection
1. Check the operation of the fuel pump.
(1) Connect the positive and the negative of the battery to
appropriate connector sockets of the fuel pump (see Figure 3-1).
Attention: Do not start the engine.
If there is pressure present, you will hear that the fuel is flowing.
If there is no pressure present, check the fusible cutout, fuse, EFI
open-circuit relay, fuel pump, ECM (Electronic Control Module) and
circuit joint.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to "OFF".
2. Check the pressure of the fuel.
(1) Check whether the battery voltage is more than 12V.
(2) Disconnect the negative wiring cable from the battery.
(3) Mount a pressure gauge on the fuel input pipe
(see Figure 3-2).
(4) Connect the negative terminal of the battery.
(5) Measure the fuel pressure.
Fuel oil pressure: 265-304kPa
If the pressure is low, check the fuel pipe and connection,
fuel pump, and fuel filter. If the pressure is too high,
replace the regulator.
(6) Start the engine. Measure the fuel pressure at idle speed. The
fuel pressure is 265-304KPa. If the pressure is unsatisfactory, checkFigure 3-1
Figure 3-3 Figure 3-2Fuel SystemCheck Fuel System Pressure3-15the fuel pump, pressure regulator, and injector, and replace if necessary.
(7) After shutting down the engine, check the fuel pressure and
keep the specified pressure for about 5 minutes. The fuel pressure is:
147KPa.
3. The fuel oil pressure regulator (DR) (see Figure 3-3).
Mounting position: On the distributing pipe for fuel.
Faults: Too low or too high fuel pressure, or hard to start.
General causes: Using poor fuel for a long time results in: 1.
strainer blocked; 2. serious leakage caused by particles and impurities.
Other reasons: Man-made mechanical damage, etc.
Maintenance precautions: During maintenance: 1. Never impact the diaphragm element with high pressure
gas; 2. Never clean it with aggressively corrosive liquid; 3. No distortion caused by external force.
Easy measuring method: For the system with oil return, connect a pressure gauge for the fuel on the suction
pipe, start the engine, and run at idle speed. Now, the fuel pressure in the engine should be about 260KPa; pull out
the vacuum pipe of the fuel pressure regulator, and the pressure should be 300KPa approximately.Battery

Section 2 Fuel Pump Inspection1. Fuel pump (1) Check whether the resistance of the fuel pump is 0.2~3.0 ohm¸ at 20°C. If not, replace the fuel pump (see Figure3-4).
(2) Fuel oil pump running:
Switch on the fuel pump with a battery and check. If the operation is unsatisfactory, replace the fuel pump or
wires (see Figure 3-5).
The test should be done within 10s to protect the coil from burning out.
2. Fuel injector assembly
Oil injecting quantity: 40~50cm3/s.
Tolerance of each injector: not more than 10 cm3.
If the fuel injecting quantity is not up to the specification, replace the injector.
Check leakage: Under above conditions, disconnect the wire from the battery, the fuel should not drip one per
minute.Figure 3-4 Figure 3-5BatteryOhm

Section 4 Fuel Emission Control SystemOn-board Inspection1. Check the operation when disconnecting the fuel supply.
(1) Warm the engine up to 2,500r/min at least, and check the noise of the injector with a sound level meter
(see Figure 3-9).
(2) When the throttle releases, the noise from the injector should stop immediately; repeat several times.
2. Check the fuel vapor discharge control system (see Figure 3-10).
(1) After starting the engine, disconnect the vacuum pipe.
(2) Make sure that there is vacuum present at the canister control valve (TEV) port when selecting ”ACTIVE
TEST" and "PURGE TEV" based on the display on the fault diagnosis instrument.
(3) After "ACTIVE TEST", connect the vacuum pipe.
(4) Carry out "ECM DATA MONITOR" on the fault diagnosis instrument, and then select "PURGE TEV"
for operation inspection.
(5) Start up the car after the engine warms up, and make sure the TEV ON from OFF (see Figure 3-11).
3. Check whether there is any distortion or damage on the filling cap and the washer (see Figure 3-12).Figure 3-9 Figure 3-10Fuel SystemFuel Emission Control System3-18Figure 3-11 Figure 3-12Sound level meter
