FUEL SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION
Marea and Marea Weekend 1.9 JTD cars are equipped with a 4 cylinder in line, 1910 cc turbodiesel en
gine with two valves per cylinder, an overhead camshaft, turbocharger and intercooler and electronic in
jection.
The fuel system ensures correct engine operation and can be divided into the following subsystems:
- Fuel feed circuit with common rail injection;
- air feed circuit;
- exhaust circuit;
- blow by vapour recirculation circuit;
- Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) circuit
Operation of the various circuits making up the fuel system is optimised by an electronic control system
managed by a special control unit.
The main feature of the fuel system is common rail fuel injection. Common rail is a higher pressure elec
tronic injection system for fast direct injection diesel engines.
The main features of the common rail system are as follows:
- availability of high injection pressures (up to 1350 bars);
- possibility of modulating these pressures (from a minimum of 150 bars to a maximum of 1350 bars)
independently of engine speed (rpm) and engine load;
- ability to operate at high engine speeds (up to 6000 rpm);
- precise injection control (injection advance and duration);
- reduced fuel consumption;
- reduced emissions.
FUEL SYSTEM MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES
The management program (software) is stored inside the control unit memory and consists of a series of
strategies, each of which manages a precise system control function.
Through the use of information providd by the various sensors (input), each strategy processes a set of
parameters based on data stored in special control unit memory areas. It then controls system actuators
(output), i.e. the devices that allow the engine to operate.
The main purpose of these management strategies is to determine the exact amount of fuel to be injected
into the cylinders with timing (injection advance) and pressure designed to achieve the best possible en
gine performance in terms of power, fuel consumption, fumes, emissions and handling.
The main system management strategies are essentially as follows:

Exhaust fumes control
Through this function the injection control unit limits any exhaust fumes that could be produced during
transition speeds.
To satisy these requirements the control unit processes the signals supplied by the accelerator pedal po
tentiometer, the rpm sensor and the air flow meter and controls the fuel pressure regulator and the injec
tors to meter the correct amount of fuel to inject.
Exhaust gas recirculation control
On the basis of the signals supplied by the rpm sensor, intake air quantity sensor, engine coolant tempe
rature sensor and accelerator pedal position sensor, the control unit calculates the operating times for the
EGR valve so that the exhaust gases are partly recirculated in certain engine operating conditions in line
with Euro 3 pollution control standards.
Air conditioning system engagement control
The injection control unit manages the operation of the air conditioning system compressor electro
magnet coupling following a logic aimed at preventing operating conditions that would adversely affect
engine performance.
- When the compressor is switched on the injection control unit increases the quantity of fuel during
idling to allow the engine to adjust to the increased power requirements and momentarily interrupts the
supply to the compressor in high engine power requirement conditions (strong acceleration).
Engine immobilizer function control
The system is equipped with an engine immobilizer function. This function is achieved through the pre
sence of a specific control unit (Fiat CODE), capable of conversing with the injection control unit and an
electronic key with a special transmitter for sending a recognition code.
Each time the key is turned to the OFF position, the Fiat CODE system completely deactivates the injecti
on control unit.
When the key is turned to the ON position the following operations take place, in order:
1. the injection control unit (whose memory contains a secret code) sends the Fiat CODE control unit a
request to send the secret code to deactivate the immobilizer functions;
2. the Fiat CODE control unit responds by only sending the secret code after, in turn, having received the
recognition code transmitted by the ignition key;
3. the recognition of the secret code allows the deactivation of the injection control unit immobilizer func
tion and its normal operation.
Autodiagnosis
The complete electronic fault diagnosis of the injection system is carried out by connecting the special
equipment (EXAMINER or EXAMINER PLUS) to the standardized diagnostic socket (EOBD).
The system is also equipped with a self-diagnostic function which recognizes, memorizes and signals any
faults.
If a fault is detected in the sensors or actuators, the recovery strategy is immediately activated in order to
ensure that the engine functions at an acceptable level. The vehicle can be driven to a service centre for
the appropriate repairs to be carried out.
