FUEL SUPPLY CIRCUIT
Operationally-speaking, the fuel supply circuit is divided into a low pressure circuit and a high pressure
circuit.
The low pressure circuit consists of a tank, multifunction valve, auxiliary fuel pump submerged in the tank
and a return manifold.
The high pressure circuit consists of a radialjet pressure pump, delivery manifold and injectors.

MULTIFUNCTION VALVE
The multifunction valve is located on the fuel
tank and performs the following functions:
- tank pressurisation
- ventilation
- seal if the car rolls over
Tank pressurisation
Tank pressurisation is maintained at a level be
tween 55 and 75 mbars by means of a valve
mounted on a sealing rim.
The valve is supported by a steel plate and held in place by a spring.
When tank pressure exceeds a specified level, it overcomes spring resistance and allows the valve to rise
so that vapours can flow out.
When the pressure returns to within specified limits, the valve closes again
Ventilation
Under certain car service conditions, a vacuum may build up in the tank due to the effect of:
- heat changes;
- fuel consumption
in this case, the valve's function is to make up pressure inside the tank by letting air into the tank.
If this function is not performed correctly, the car may judder or stall due to difficulties in supplying the
pump.
Seal if the car rolls over
The roll-over function prevents fuel emerging from the tank if the car rolls over or tilts to a great extent.
During normal car operation (bends, acceleration, braking etc.), the fuel slops about and may emerge.
The highly-sensitive roll-over valve prevents this happening.
DELIVERY MANIFOLD (RAIL)
The delivery manifold (rail) is fitted to the cylinder head on the intake side.
Its volume damps fuel pressure fluctuations due mainly to:
- operation of the pressure pump;
- injector opening.
A fuel pressure sensor is fitted in the middle of the delivery manifold.
Hydraulic connections (high pressure) are via special steel pipes.

The EGR valve consists of:
- a Pierburg EGR solenoid (1) operated by engine management unit (2)
- a pipe from the exhaust manifold (4) (from which the exhaust gases flow)
- an air-water heat exchanger (3) (that lowers exhaust gas temperature)
- a pipe connected to throttle body (5) to which exhaust gases are admitted
4
Operation
With coolant temperature > 20°C and engine speeds between 800 and 3000 rpm, the engine management
unit controls the EGR solenoid by means of a square wave signal.
Changes in this signal allow the EGR coil to move a plunger and thus modulate the flow of exhaust gas
from the exhaust manifold to the intake manifold; this achieves two results:
- less air is taken in
- combustion temperature is lowered (due to the presence of inert gases), thus reducing the formation of
NOx (nitrogen oxides).
The engine management control unit is constantly informed of recirculation gas quantity via data from the
debimeter. If the intake of a given quantity of air (Qam) is required for a given rpm and the level sent by
the debimeter (Qar) is lower, the difference (Qgr) is the amount of gas recirculated.
Qam - Qar = Qgr
Qam = stored theoretical air quantity
Qar = actual air quantity
Qgr = recirculated gas quantity
An atmospheric pressure signal is used in controlling the EGR valve to detect when the car is being driven at
altitude. The recirculation gas quantity can then be reduced to prevent engine fumes.

RECIRCULATION CIRCUIT FOR CRANK-
CASE VAPOURS (BLOW-BY)
The control of the oil vapour emissions is
achieved through a separator (1) (function
carried out by the tappet cover) which collects
the vapours released by the crankcase in the
pipe (2).
The difference in temperature between the
separator and the oil vapours causes partial
condensation.
The vapours which have not condensed are
sent, via the pipe (3), to the turbocharger air
intake hose.
The adjustment valve, consisting of a spring
(1) and a diaphragm (2), on the tappet cover
makes it possible to prevent intake.
When the vacuum values inside the tappet
cover exceed a pre-set limit, the diaphragm
moves downwards sealing the duct from the
crankcase.
