fuel pressure regulator. The fuel pressure regulator is
not mountedto the fuel rail on any engine. It is
located on the fuel tank mounted fuel pump module.
Refer to Fuel Pressure Regulator for additional infor-
mation.
The fuel rail is not repairable.
A quick-connect fitting with a safety latch is used

High pressure fuel from the fuel pump is routed to
the fuel rail. The fuel rail then supplies the neces-
sary fuel to each individual fuel injector.
A quick-connect fitting with a safety latch is used
to attach the fuel line to the fuel rail.
The fuel rail is not repairable.

Fuel Tank Draining
WARNING: THE FUEL SYSTEM MAY BE UNDER
CONSTANT FUEL PRESSURE EVEN WITH THE
ENGINE OFF. THIS PRESSURE MUST BE
RELEASED BEFORE SERVICING FUEL TANK.
Two different procedures may be used to drain fuel
tank: removing fuel pump module access plate, or
using DRBtscan tool. Due to a one-way check valve
installed into the fuel fill opening fitting at the tank
(Fig. 38), the tank cannot be drained conventionally
at the fill cap.
The quickest draining procedure involves removing
fuel pump module access plate.
As an alternative procedure, the electric fuel pump
may be activated allowing tank to be drained at fuel
rail connection. Refer to DRB scan tool for fuel pump
activation procedures. Before disconnecting fuel line
at fuel rail, release fuel pressure. Refer to the Fuel
System Pressure Release Procedure for procedures.
Attach end of special test hose tool number 6541,
6539, 6631 or 6923 at fuel rail disconnection (tool
number will depend on model and/or engine applica-
tion). Position opposite end of this hose tool to an
approved gasoline draining station. Activate fuel
pump and drain tank until empty.
If electric fuel pump is not operating, fuel pump
module access plate must be removed for fuel drain-
ing. Refer to following procedures.Fuel tank removal will not be necessary for
fuel tank draining. Access for draining is from
rear cargo area.
(1) Open all windows in vehicle to allow for air
ventilation.
(2) Four cargo holdown clamps are located inside
the vehicle on the floor of the rear cargo area.
Remove the 2 rearward mounted clamps by drilling
out the clamp rivets.
(3) Fold carpeting forward to gain access to fuel
pump module access plate (Fig. 39).
(4) Remove 4 fuel pump module access plate nuts
(Fig. 39).
(5) While applying heat from a heat gun, carefully
pry up fuel pump module access plate. Take care not
to bend plate.
(6) Thoroughly clean area around top of pump
module to prevent contaminants from entering fuel
tank or fuel lines.
(7) Release fuel system pressure.
(8) Disconnect 2 fuel lines (Fig. 40) at fuel pump
module by pressing on tabs at side of fitting.
(9) Disconnect electrical connector (Fig. 40). Slide
red tab first to unlock, and push grey tab down for
removal.
(10) Disconnect ORVR hose (Fig. 40) at pump mod-
ule fitting.

(11) Remove module lockring (Fig. 40) using a
brass drift and hammer (counter-clockwise).
(12) Carefully lift upper section of pump module
from fuel tank a few inches(lift upper section
from tank very slowly until rubber gasket can
be retained. If not, gasket will fall into fuel
tank).
(13) Using an approved gas holding tank, drain
fuel tank through fuel pump module opening.
Tank Removal
(1) After draining tank, temporarily place upper
section of fuel pump module back into fuel tank.
(2) Raise vehicle.
(3) If equipped, remove fuel tank skid plate and
tow hooks. Certain equipment packages will also
require removal of the trailer hitch. Refer to Tow
Hooks, Trailer Hitch or Skid Plate in 23, Body for
removal/installation procedures.
(4) Disconnect fuel filter ground strap.
(5) Disconnect fuel filter outlet line from body
retention clip located on frame near front/center of
tank (Fig. 41). Place a small screwdriver into side of
clip and twist for removal. Also disconnect Leak
Detection Pump (LDP) line (Fig. 41) from this clip.(6) Remove both 3/4º hoses at sides of Leak Detec-
tion Pump (LDP) (Fig. 41).
(7) Disconnect 3/4º flow management valve hose
(Fig. 41) at EVAP canister.
(8) Remove fuel fill hose clamp (Fig. 42) at fuel
tank, and disconnect hose from fuel tank.
(9) A third fuel line is attached to bottom of fuel
filter. The disconnection point (quick-connect fitting)
for this 3rd line is approximately 1 foot from front of
tank towards front of vehicle (Fig. 41). Clean connec-
tion point before disconnection. Disconnect by press-
ing on tabs at side of quick-connect fitting. Also
disconnect LDP vent line near this same point.
(10) Disconnect 2 vacuum/vent hoses from plastic
retention clip at left/front of fuel tank line (Fig. 41).
(11) Support tank with a hydraulic jack.
(12) Remove 4 fuel tank strap bolts (Fig. 41) (2 at
front of tank; 2 at rear of tank), and remove both
tank support straps (Fig. 41).
(13) Carefully lower tank a few inches and discon-
nect electrical connector at top of LDP (Fig. 43). To
disconnect electrical connector: Push upward on red
colored tab to unlock. Push on black colored tab
while removing connector.

FUEL TANK CHECK VALVE
DESCRIPTION
The fuel tank is equipped with a check valve. The
valve (also referred to as a control valve) is located in
the top section of the fuel pump module assembly
(Fig. 1).
OPERATION
The fuel tank check valve (also referred to as
either a control valve, one-way check valve or float
valve) will prevent fuel flow through the fuel tank
vent in the event of an accidental vehicle rollover. It
is also used as a part of the ORVR system. The
EVAP canister and ORVR system draw fuel vapors
from the fuel tank through this valve. Refer to ORVR
in Emissions for additional information.
The valve may be serviced by replacing the upper
section of the fuel pump module assembly.
REMOVAL
The fuel tank check (control) valve is attached into
the top section of the fuel pump module (Fig. 44). If
replacement is necessary, the top section of the fuel
pump module must be replaced. Refer to Fuel Pump
Module Removal/Installation.
INSTALLATION
The fuel tank check (control) valve is attached to
the top section of the fuel pump module. If replace-
ment is necessary, the top section of the fuel pump
module must be replaced. Refer to Fuel Pump Mod-
ule Removal/Installation.
INLET FILTER
REMOVAL
The fuel pump inlet filter is located on the bottom/
side of the lower fuel pump module section (Fig. 45).
The fuel pump module assembly is located in the fuel
tank.
(1) Remove lower section of fuel pump module.
Refer to Fuel Pump Module Removal/Installation.
(2) Remove filter by prying from pump module
with 2 small screwdrivers. Filter is snapped to mod-
ule with 2 release tabs (Fig. 45).
(3) Clean filter entrance into pump module open-
ing.
INSTALLATION
(1) Snap new filter to bottom of fuel pump module.
(2) Install lower section of fuel pump module.
Refer to Fuel Pump Module Removal/Installation.
