DESCRIPTIONÐHIGH PRESSURE FUEL LINES
The high-pressure fuel lines are the 6 lines located
between the fuel injection pump and the fuel injector
connector tubes (Fig. 45). All other fuel lines are con-
sidered low-pressure lines.
OPERATIONÐHIGH PRESSURE FUEL LINES
CAUTION: The high-pressure fuel lines must be
held securely in place in their holders. The lines
cannot contact each other or other components. Do
not attempt to weld high-pressure fuel lines or to
repair lines that are damaged. If lines are ever
kinked or bent, they must be replaced. Use only the
recommended lines when replacement of high-pres-
sure fuel line is necessary.
High-pressure fuel lines deliver fuel under pres-
sure of up to approximately 120,000 kPa (17,405 PSI)
from the injection pump to the fuel injectors. The
lines expand and contract from the high-pressure
fuel pulses generated during the injection process. All
high-pressure fuel lines are of the same length and
inside diameter. Correct high-pressure fuel line usage
and installation is critical to smooth engine opera-
tion.
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN
INSPECTING FOR HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL LEAKS.
INSPECT FOR HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL LEAKS WITH
A SHEET OF CARDBOARD. HIGH FUEL INJECTION
PRESSURE CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY IF
CONTACT IS MADE WITH THE SKIN.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HIGH-PRESSURE
FUEL LINE LEAKS
High-pressure fuel line leaks can cause starting
problems and poor engine performance.
WARNING: DUE TO EXTREME FUEL PRESSURES
OF UP TO 120,000 kPa (17,400 PSI), USE EXTREME
CAUTION WHEN INSPECTING FOR HIGH-PRES-
SURE FUEL LEAKS. DO NOT GET YOUR HAND
NEAR A SUSPECTED LEAK. INSPECT FOR HIGH-
PRESSURE FUEL LEAKS WITH A SHEET OF CARD-
BOARD. HIGH FUEL INJECTION PRESSURE CAN
CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY IF CONTACT IS MADE
WITH THE SKIN.
Start the engine. Move the cardboard over the
high-pressure fuel lines and check for fuel spray onto
the cardboard (Fig. 46). If a high-pressure line con-
nection is leaking, bleed the system and tighten the
connection. Refer to the Air Bleed Procedure in this
group for procedures. Replace damaged, restricted or
leaking high-pressure fuel lines with the correct
replacement line.

CAUTION: The high-pressure fuel lines must be
clamped securely in place in the holders. The lines
cannot contact each other or other components. Do
not attempt to weld high-pressure fuel lines or to
repair lines that are damaged. Only use the recom-
mended lines when replacement of high-pressure
fuel line is necessary.
REMOVAL
High-pressure lines are used between the fuel
injection pump and the fuel injectors only. All high-
pressure fuel lines are of the same length and inside
diameter. Correct high-pressure fuel line usage and
installation is critical to smooth engine operation.

FUEL TANK
DESCRIPTION - DIESEL FUEL TANK
The fuel tank is similar to the tank used with gas-
oline powered models. The tank is equipped with a
separate fuel return line and a different fuel tank
module for diesel powered models. A fuel tank
mounted, electric fuel pump is not used with diesel
powered models. Refer to Fuel Tank Module for addi-
tional information.
For removal and installation procedures, refer to
Fuel Tank - Gasoline Engines.
FUEL TANK MODULE
DESCRIPTION
An electric fuel pump isnot usedin the fuel tank
module for diesel powered engines. Fuel is supplied
by the engine mounted fuel transfer pump and the
fuel injection pump.
The fuel tank module is installed in the top of the
fuel tank (Fig. 56). The fuel tank module (Fig. 56)
contains the following components:
²Fuel reservoir
²A separate in-tank fuel filter
²Rollover valve
²Fuel gauge sending unit (fuel level sensor)
²Fuel supply line connection
²Fuel return line connection
²Auxiliary non-pressurized fuel supply fitting
OPERATION
Refer to Fuel Gauge Sending Unit.

REMOVAL
(1) Drain and remove fuel tank. Refer to Fuel
Tank Removal/Installation.
(2) Thoroughly clean area around tank module at
top of tank.
(3) The plastic fuel tank module locknut is
threaded onto fuel tank. Install Special Tool 6856 to
locknut and remove locknut (Fig. 57). The fuel tank
module will spring up when locknut is removed.
(4) Remove module from fuel tank.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Whenever the fuel tank module is ser-
viced, the rubber gasket must be replaced.
(1) Thoroughly clean locknut and locknut threads
at top of tank.
(2) Using new gasket, carefully position fuel tank
module into opening in fuel tank.
(3) Position locknut over top of fuel tank module.
Install locknut finger tight.
(4) When looking down at tank from drivers side of
tank, the arrow at top of module should be aligned
between two marks stamped into tank (approximate-
ly 2 o'clock position). The fuel line connectors, roll
over valve and fuel gauge electrical connector should
all be pointed to drivers side of vehicle. Rotate and
align module/tank marks if necessary before tighten-
ing locknut.This step must be performed to pre-vent the module's float from contacting side of
fuel tank.
(5) Tighten locknut to 24±44 N´m (18±32 ft. lbs.)
torque.
(6) Install fuel tank. Refer to Fuel Tank Removal/
Installation.
FUEL TRANSFER PUMP
DESCRIPTION
The fuel transfer pump (fuel lift pump) is located
on the left-rear side of the engine cylinder block
above the starter motor (Fig. 58). The 12±volt electric
vane-type pump is operated and controlled by the
Engine Control Module (ECM) (Fig. 59).
OPERATION
The purpose of the fuel transfer pump is to supply
(transfer) a low-pressure fuel source:fromthe fuel
tank,throughthe fuel filter/water separator andto
the fuel injection pump. Here, the low-pressure is
raised to a high-pressure by the fuel injection pump
for operation of the high-pressure fuel injectors.
Check valves within the pump, control direction of
fuel flow and prevent fuel bleed-back during engine
shut down.
Normal current flow to the pump is 12 amperes.
With the engine running, the pump has2modes of
operation: Mode 1: 100 percent duty-cycle with a
minimum pressure of 10 psiexcept when the
engine is cranking.Mode 2: 15 percent duty-cycle
with maximum pressure of 7 psiwith the engine
cranking
The 15 percent duty-cycle is used to limit injection
pump inlet pressure until the engine is running.
