The fuel pump is a 'self priming' wet type pump which is immersed in fuel in the tank. The fuel pump operates at all
times when the ignition switch is in position II. If the engine is not started, the ECU will 'time-out' after 2 seconds and
de-energise the fuel pump relay to protect the pump. The pump receives a feed from the battery via fuse 10 in the
engine compartment fusebox and the fuel pump relay. The relay is energised by the ECM when the ignition switch is
moved to position II.
The fuel pump is retained with a locking ring and sealed with a rubber seal. The locking ring requires a special tool
for removal and fitment. An access panel for the fuel pump is located in the loadspace floor below the loadspace
carpet. The access panel is sealed to the floor with a rubber seal and retained by six self-tapping screws.
The fuel gauge sender is integral with the fuel pump. The sender is submerged in the fuel and is operated by a float
which moves with the fuel level in the tank.

19-2-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Fuel gauge sender
The fuel gauge sender unit comprises a rotary potentiometer operated by a float. The float rises and falls with the fuel
level in the tank and moves the potentiometer accordingly.
Battery voltage is supplied to the potentiometer. The output voltage from the potentiometer varies according to the
resistance through the potentiometer in relation to the fuel level. The output voltage is connected to the fuel gauge in
the instrument pack. The fuel gauge receives a battery voltage input and this is compared with the output voltage from
the potentiometer. The difference between the two voltages determines the deflection of the fuel gauge pointer.

An injector for each cylinder is mounted externally in the lower inlet manifold on the engine. The injector protrudes
into the inlet manifold tract, where it releases a controlled delivery of fuel into the manifold air inlet.
Each injector is sealed to the fuel rail and the inlet manifold with 'O' rings. Spring clips retain each injector to the fuel
rail and the attachment of the fuel rail clamps the injectors in the lower manifold.
The injector housing is manufactured from plastic which encapsulates a high-alloy steel housing. The steel housing
contains all components which come into contact with fuel. The plastic housing also provides the attachment for the
engine harness connector for the injector. A solenoid is located between the two housings and moves a valve needle
via an armature. The valve needle seats on a valve seat which incorporates a spray orifice plate. A filter strainer is
fitted at the connection with the fuel rail to remove any particulate matter from the fuel before it enters the injector.
When the ECM energises the solenoid, the armature moves lifting the valve needle off its seat. This allows
pressurised fuel from the fuel rail to pass through the injector housing and needle to the spray orifice. The spray orifice
controls the spray shape and fuel metering. When the solenoid is de-energised, the valve needle returns to the valve
seat, aided by a spring, closing off the injection of fuel into the inlet.
Each injector receives a battery supply voltage via a fuse in the engine compartment fusebox. The fuel delivery timing
is controlled by the ECM, which, at a precisely timed interval, provides a ground path for the injector. The completion
of the ground path operates the injector to allow fuel at pump pressure to be delivered from the fuel rail to the injector
nozzle. Each injector sprays a finely atomized spray of fuel into the inlet, where it is mixed with the intake air prior to
combustion.
+ ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description - engine
management.
Faults for each injector are stored in the ECM and can be retrieved using TestBook. Each injector can be checked
across the two connector pins. For a correctly functioning injector a resistance of between 13.8 and 15.2 ohms at a
temperature of 20°C (65°F) should be read across the pins.

19-2-10 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Operation
When the ignition switch is moved to position II, the fuel pump relay in the engine compartment fusebox is energised
by the ECM. Battery voltage is supplied from the fuel pump relay to the fuel pump which operates. If engine cranking
is not detected by the ECU within a thirty second period, the ECU will 'time-out', de-energising the fuel pump relay.
+ ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description - engine
management.
The fuel pump draws fuel from the swirl pot and pumps it along the fuel feed pipe to the injector fuel rail on the engine.
When the pressure in the fuel feed line reaches 3.5 bar (50 lbf.in
2) the fuel pressure regulator opens and relieves
pressure by directing fuel back into the swirl pot. The pressure regulator is constantly opening and closing to maintain
the pressure in the fuel feed pipe and the fuel rail at 3.5 bar (50 lbf.in
2).
The pressure is felt at each of the eight injectors connected to the fuel rail. The ECM controls the injection timing and
energises each injector to allow a metered amount of fuel at pump pressure to be injected into the inlet tract of the
inlet manifold. The atomised fuel from the injector is mixed with air from the inlet manifold before passing into the
cylinder.
