MODULE-FUEL PUMP
DESCRIPTION
The electric fuel pump is located inside of the fuel pump module. A 12 volt, permanent magnet, electric motor pow-
ers the fuel pump. The electric fuel pump is not a separate, serviceable component.
OPERATION
Voltage to operate the electric pump is supplied through the fuel pump relay.
Fuel is drawn in through a filter at the bottom of the module and pushed through the electric motor gearset to the
pump outlet.
Check Valve Operation:The bottom section of the fuel pump module contains a one-way check valve toprevent
fuel flow back into the tank and to maintain fuel supply line pressure (engine warm) when pump is not operational.
It is also used to keep the fuel supply line full of gasoline when pump is not operational. After the vehicle has cooled
down, fuel pressure may drop to 0 psi (cold fluid contracts), but liquid gasoline will remain in fuel supply line
between the check valve and fuel injectors.Fuel pressure that has dropped to 0 psi on a cooled down vehicle
(engine off) is a normal condition.
The electric fuel pump is not a separate, serviceable component.
