                 Description  and  Operation  

The fuel fil
ler cap is the same as
that used on non-ORVR systems.
The check valve assembly is a push fit into the end of the fuel filler tube and is accessible with the evaporative flange
removed. The valve has a light spring load ing and opens under the inflow of fuel.
ORVR Evaporative Loss Flange Assembly

The evaporative loss flange assembly is fitted to the top of the tank via a seal and locking ring arrangement identical to that
used for non-ORVR systems. The assembly is re moveable complete with the fitted components.
The fuel level vent valve (FLVV) is mounted in the ELF assembly via a bayonet fitting : it is turned approximately 90 °
clockwise to release. The grade vent valve and pressure sensor are push in fits via sealing gromme ts : note that, due to the
tight fit, removal of these components may require cutting the grommets. The fuel pump connector is push fitted and
crimped into a location tube on the underside of the flange.

1. Remove battery. Refer to 86.15.01.
2. WARNING: BEFORE PROCEEDING, IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE
WARNING NOTES GIVEN IN SECTIO N 100-00 (UNDER THE HEADING
'SAFETY PRECAUTIONS') ARE READ AND UNDERSTOOD.
Remove fuel tank assembly for access. Refer to operation 19.55.01.

3. Discon
nect vapor hose(s) from flange assembly.

4. Remov
e locking ring using special tool 412-070 (JD 174).
Insta

ll special tool to locking ring.
Usi

ng a suitable bar, turn special tool anti-clockwise to release
locking ring from the five tank tabs.

5. Lift
flange assembly slightly and disconnect fuel pump link lead from the
underside of flange connector. Secure connector to tank aperture.
6. Discard sealing ring.

Filler Cap and P
ipe
The fuel
filler cap with bayonet-type fixi
ng is located beneath a remote-release sp ring-latched lid on the rear saddle panel
on the left-hand-side of the vehicle.
Fuel Pum
p
The fu
el pump(s) is energized by an ECM co
ntrolled relay. Fuel is drawn by this pu mp and supplied to the fuel injectors via
the fuel line, filter and fuel rails.
Servicing of the fuel pump re quires fuel tank removal.
Ev
aporative Loss Flange Assembly
The evaporative-loss flan
ge asse
mbly is mounted centrally on top of the tank. The flange assembly consists of a removeable
steel cap which mounts the evaporative emissions system vapor outlet valves and, if applicable, a pressure sensor. The
external electrical supply to th e fuel pump(s) is also made via a connector on the flange.
The flange assembly is fixed to the tank by a locking ring which is turned usin g special tool JD-174. A seal is fitted between
the flange assembly and the tank. Three di fferent flange assemblies are applicable according to the evaporative emission
system fitted to the vehicle. The fl ange size and fixing are identical fo r the three systems, as described.
Removal of the evaporative flange assembly is necessary to gain access to th e fuel pump(s) and other internal components.
To remove the evaporative fl ange assembly the fuel tank must first be removed.
The evaporative flange variant assemblies are described, together with service information, in Section 303-13.
Fuel R
eturn
Excess fuel
is directed back to
the fuel tank via a return line.
Fuel Pum
p Relay
The
fuel pump relay,
under control of the ECM, switches power to the fuel pump motor.
I
nertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) Switch
The IF
S switch is located in the right-hand
side footwell behind the footboard carpet . When activated the switch isolates the
ignition system and fuel pump, releases any locked doors and disables unnecessary electrical systems. The system can be
reset by pressing down the flexible cover on the top of the switch.
• NOTE: The doors will not unlock if the IFS switch is tripped when the ignition switch is in position '0'.
