DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION DESCRIPTION
Fuel system
The fuel system incorporates a supply and spill return
line on all models as illustrated below.
On 90 models, see J6191, the fuel tank is mounted at
the RH side of the vehicle chassis under the front
seat.On standard 110 and 130 models the fuel tank is
located at the rear of the vehicle between the chassis
longitudenal sections, as shown in J6192.
As an option, a twin tank system fitted with a
combined change-over tap and 3 way fuel supply and
return system, can be installed on both 110 and 130
models, see J6193.
The tank/s on all vehicles is vented by a 2 way valve
in the filler cap.
