(A) Fuel tankFuel is drawn from the fuel tank by an electric fuel transfer pump that is located in the primary and secondary fuel filter base.When the fuel flows to the primary and secondary fuel filter base, the fuel flows through a primary fuel filter/water separator. From the primary fuel filter/water separator, the fuel flows to the electric fuel transfer pump. From the electric fuel transfer pump, the fuel flows to the fuel transfer pump.Fuel then flows from the fuel transfer pump to the secondary fuel filter. Fuel flows from the outlet of the primary and secondary fuel filter base to the fuel injection pump.At the fuel injection pump, the fuel is pumped at an increased pressure up to a maximum pressure of 190 MPa (27557 psi) to the fuel manifold (rail).Fuel that has too high a pressure from the fuel manifold (rail) returns through the pressure relief valve to the return line. Fuel that is leak off from the electronic unit injectors flows to the return line. The fuel may then flow through an optional fuel cooler on the way back to the fuel tank.High Pressure Fuel System

(3) Pressure relief valve
(4) Electronic unit injector
(5) Fuel manifold (rail)
(6) Fuel pressure sensor
(7) Fuel transfer pumpThe fuel injection pump (1) feeds fuel to the high-pressure fuel manifold (rail) (5). The fuel is at a pressure of up to 190 MPa (27557 psi). A pressure sensor (6) in the high-pressure fuel manifold (rail) (5) monitors the fuel pressure in the high-pressure fuel manifold (rail) (5). The ECM controls a solenoid (2) in the fuel injection pump (1) to maintain the actual pressure in the high-pressure fuel manifold (5) at the desired level. The high-pressure fuel is continuously available at each injector. The ECM determines the correct time for activation of the correct electronic unit injector (4) which allows fuel to be injected into the cylinder. The leakoff fuel from each injector passes into a drilling which runs along the inside of the cylinder head. A pipe is connected to the rear of the cylinder head to return the leakoff fuel to the fuel tank. The pressure relief valve (3) operates at a pressure of 200 MPa (29000 psi).Components of the Fuel Injection System

Illustration 3 g06331135
Typical example
The primary and secondary fuel filter base is supplied loose and is mounted to the application.The primary and secondary fuel filter base contains the following components:
Primary filter/water separator
Electric fuel transfer pump
Secondary fuel filterThe primary filter/water separator (1) is supplied with water in fuel sensor (4).The secondary fuel filter (3) is located after the primary fuel filter (1) and the electric fuel transfer pump (2).Fuel Pump Assembly
Illustration 4 g03346818
Typical example
The fuel pump assembly consists of a low-pressure transfer pump (3) and a high-pressure fuel injection pump (1). The pump assembly is driven from a gear in the front timing case at half of the engine speed. The fuel injection pump (1) has two plungers that are driven by a camshaft. The fuel injection pump (1) delivers a volume of fuel three times for each revolution. The stroke of the plungers are fixed.The injector will use only part of the fuel that is delivered by each stroke of the pistons in the pump. The solenoid (2) for the fuel injection pump (1) is controlled by the ECM. This maintains the fuel pressure in the fuel manifold (rail) at the correct level. A feature of the fuel injection pump (1) allows fuel to return to the tank continuously.The fuel injection pump has the following operation:
Generation of high-pressure fuelThe fuel output of the fuel injection pump is controlled by the ECM in response to changes in the demand of fuel pressure.Shutoff
The engine shuts off by preventing the electronic unit injectors from injecting. The ECM then closes the suction control valve to prevent the pressure in the fuel manifold (rail) from increasing.Control

(14) Electronic unit injectorsThe ECM determines the quantity, timing, and pressure of the fuel to be injected into the fuel injector.The ECM uses input from the sensors on the engine. These sensors include the speed/timing sensors and the pressure sensors.The ECM controls the timing and the flow of fuel by actuating the injector solenoid.The amount of fuel is proportional to the duration of the signal to the injector solenoid.The ECM controls the fuel pressure by increasing or decreasing the flow of fuel from the fuel injection pump.Fuel Injectors
