FUEL PUMP MODULE
The fuel pump module is installed in the top of the
fuel tank. The fuel pump module contains the follow-
ing components:
²Electric fuel pump
²Fuel pump reservoir
²In-tank fuel filter
²Fuel gauge sending unit
²Fuel supply and return tube connections
The fuel pump used on all vehicles is a turbine
type pump. It is driven by a permanent magnet 12
volt electric motor that is immersed in the fuel tank.
The electrical pump is integral with the fuel sender
unit. The pump/sender assembly is installed inside
the fuel tank.
The fuel pump has a check valve at the outlet end
that consists of a ball held against a seat by force ap-
plied from a spring. When the pump is operating,
fuel pressure overcomes spring pressure and forces
the ball off its seat, allowing fuel to flow. When the
pump is not operating, spring pressure forces the ball
back against the seat preventing fuel backflow
through the pump.
Fuel system pressure is maintained at approxi-
mately 214 kPa (31 psi). This is when the pump is
operating and vacuum is supplied to the fuel pres-
sure regulator. If vacuum is not supplied to the pres-
sure regulator, fuel pressure will be approximately
55-69 kPa (8-10 psi) higher. This may be due to a
broken or clogged vacuum line. When the fuel pump
is not operating, fuel system pressure of 131-269 kPa
(19-39 psi) is maintained for approximately 2 to 6
hours. This is done by the fuel pump outlet check
valve and the vacuum assisted fuel pressure regula-
tor.
REMOVALÐXJ MODELS
The fuel pump/gauge sender unit assembly can be
removed from the fuel tank without removing the
tank from the vehicle.
WARNING: THE FUEL SYSTEM IS UNDER A CON-
STANT PRESSURE (EVEN WITH THE ENGINE OFF).
BEFORE SERVICING THE FUEL PUMP MODULE,
THE FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE MUST BE RE-LEASED. REFER TO THE FUEL PRESSURE RE-
LEASE PROCEDURE IN THIS GROUP.
WARNING: EXTINGUISH ALL TOBACCO SMOKING
PRODUCTS BEFORE SERVICING THE FUEL SYS-
TEM. KEEP OPEN FLAME AWAY FROM FUEL SYS-
TEM COMPONENTS.
(1) Remove fuel filler cap. Perform the Fuel Pres-
sure Release Procedure as outlined in this group.
(2) Disconnect negative battery cable.
(3) Using an approved portable gasoline siphon/
storage tank, drain fuel tank until fuel level is below
one quarter (1/4) full.
(4) Raise and support vehicle.
WARNING: WRAP SHOP TOWELS AROUND FUEL
HOSES TO ABSORB ANY FUEL SPILLAGE DURING
FUEL TANK REMOVAL.

FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE PROCEDURE
WARNING: THE FUEL SYSTEM IS UNDER CON-
STANT FUEL PRESSURE (EVEN WITH THE ENGINE
OFF) OF APPROXIMATELY 131-269 KPA (19-39 PSI).
THIS PRESSURE MUST BE RELEASED BEFORE
SERVICING ANY FUEL SUPPLY OR FUEL RETURN
SYSTEM COMPONENT.
(1) Disconnect negative battery cable.
(2) Remove fuel tank filler neck cap to release fuel
tank pressure.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW FUEL TO SPILL ONTO
THE ENGINE INTAKE OR EXHAUST MANIFOLDS.
PLACE SHOP TOWELS UNDER AND AROUND THE
PRESSURE PORT TO ABSORB FUEL WHEN THE
PRESSURE IS RELEASED FROM THE FUEL RAIL.
WARNING: WEAR PROPER EYE PROTECTION
WHEN RELEASING FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE.
(3) Remove protective cap from pressure test port
on the fuel rail (Fig. 7).
(4) Obtain the fuel pressure gauge/hose assembly
from fuel pressure gauge tool set 5069. Remove the
gauge from the hose.
(5) Place one end of hose (gauge end) into an ap-
proved gasoline container.
(6) Place a shop towel under the test port.
(7) To release fuel pressure, screw the other end of
hose onto the fuel pressure test port.
(8) After fuel pressure has been released, remove
the hose from the test port.
(9) Install protective cap to fuel test port.
FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE TEST
The fuel system is equipped with a vacuum as-
sisted fuel pressure regulator (Fig. 8). With engine atidle speed, system fuel pressure should be approxi-
mately 214 kPa (31 psi) with the vacuum line con-
nected to the regulator. With the vacuum line
disconnected from the regulator, fuel pressure should
be approximately 269 kPa (39 psi). This is 55-69 kPa
(8-10 psi) higher.
(1) Remove the protective cap at the fuel rail (Fig.
7). Connect the 0-414 kPa (0-60 psi) fuel pressure
gauge (from Gauge Set 5069) to test port pressure fit-
ting on fuel rail (Fig. 9).
(2) Note pressure gauge reading. Fuel pressure
should be approximately 214 kPa (31 psi) at idle.
(3) Disconnect vacuum line (hose) at fuel pressure
regulator (Fig. 8). Note gauge reading. With vacuum
line disconnected, fuel pressure should rise to ap-
proximately 269 kPa (39 psi).
Fuel pressure should be approximately 55-69 kPa
(8-10 psi) higher with vacuum line removed from reg-
ulator. If not, inspect pressure regulator vacuum line
for leaks, kinks or blockage. If vacuum line checks

FUEL PRESSURE LEAK DOWN TEST
ENGINE OFF
Abnormally long periods of cranking to restart a
hot engine that has been shut down for a short pe-
riod of time may be caused by:
²Fuel pressure bleeding past the fuel pressure reg-
ulator.
²Fuel pressure bleeding past the check valve in the
outlet end of the fuel tank mounted fuel pump.
²Fuel pressure bleeding past a fuel injector(s)
(1) Remove protective cap at fuel rail test port
(Fig. 11). With the engine off, connect the 0-414 kPa
(0-60 psi) fuel pressure gauge to the pressure test
port fitting on the fuel rail. The fitting on the pres-
sure tester must be in good condition and free of any
leaks before performing this test.
(2) Start the vehicle and let engine idle. Check fuel
pressure reading on gauge. Fuel pressure should be
within specifications. Refer to the previous Fuel Sys-
tem Pressure Tests.
(3) Shut engine off. Observe and record fuel pres-
sure reading on gauge. Leave fuel pressure gauge
connected. Allow engine to set for 30 minutes and
then compare the fuel pressure reading on the gauge
with the reading taken when engine was shut down.
A pressure drop of up to 138 kPa (20 psi) within 30
minutes is within specifications.
(4) If the fuel pressure drop is within specifica-
tions, the fuel pump outlet check valve and fuel pres-
sure regulator are both operating normally.
(5) If fuel pressure drop is greater than 138 kPa
(20 psi), it must be determined if this drop is being
caused by (in-tank mounted) fuel pump outlet check
valve or fuel pressure regulator. Proceed to next step.
(6) Release the fuel system pressure from fuel sys-
tem. Refer to the previous Fuel Pressure Release
Procedure in this group.(7) Disconnect both fuel lines at fuel rail near fuel
pressure regulator. For procedures, refer to Fuel
Tubes/Lines/Hoses and Clamps. Also refer to Quick-
Connect Fittings. These can be found in the Fuel De-
livery System section of this group.

number 6631 (3/8 in.) between the disconnected fuel
supply line and fuel rail (Fig. 12).
(9) Connect Fuel Line Pressure Test Adapter Tool
number 6539 (5/16 in.) between the disconnected fuel
return line and fuel rail (Fig. 12).
(10) Start engine. Observe and record fuel system
pressure.
(11) Shut engine off.
(12) Clamp off the rubber hose portion of adapter
tool number 6539 connected to the fuel return line.
Allow engine to set for 30 minutes. If pressure has
dropped more than 138 kPa (20 psi) in 30 minutes,
pressure is bleeding past the (in-tank mounted) fuel
pump outlet check valve. Replace Fuel Pump Module
assembly. Refer to Fuel Pump Module removal and
installation in this group. If pressure drop is within
specifications, proceed to next step.
(13) Clamp off the rubber hose portion of adapter
tool number 6631 connected to the fuel supply line.
Allow engine to set for 30 minutes. If pressure has
dropped more than 138 kPa (20 psi) in 30 minutes,
pressure is bleeding past the fuel pressure regulator.
Replace fuel pressure regulator. Refer to Fuel Rail re-
moval and installation in the Component Removal/
Installation section of this group.
