and installing
- Raise rear end of car and support safely.
CAUTION-
Make sure the car is stable and well supported at all times.
Use a professional automotive lift
orjack stands designed for
the purpose.
A floor jack is not adequate support.

Running losses (312-way) valve,
removing and installing
The running losses (312-way) valve is located under the car
beneath the driver's seat, just ahead of the fuel filter. A protec-
tive covershieldsfuel system components from road hazards
and dirt.
The engine control module
(ECM) controls the operation of
the 312-way valve (pulse-width modulated). On engine start
up, the valve solenoid is energized for 20 seconds in order to
supply full fuel volume to the fuel rail.
After20 seconds, the
solenoid is deactivated and sprung closed (the bypass is
opened). This reduces the amount of fuel circulating through
the fuel rail and diverts the excess to return to the fuel tank
through the fuel pressure regulator.
The fuel injectors are supplied with pressurized fuel, but ex-
cess fuel is diverted to the fuel tank without first passing
through the fuel rail. This prevents the excess fuel from ab-
sorbing heat in the engine compartment, thus lowering the
temperature and amount of vaporization in the fuel tank.
