Fuel Delivery System Schematic:
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION:
When the ignition switch is turned to the "ON," position the Electronic Control Module (ECM) will energize the in-tank fuel pump. It will remain "ON" as long as the engine is cranking or running and the ECM is receiving reference pulses. If there are no reference pulses, the ECM will shut "OFF" the fuel pump in about 3 seconds after ignition "ON" or engine stops. The fuel pump will deliver fuel to the throttle body fuel injection (TBI) unit and fuel injector, then to the fuel pressure regulator, where the system pressure is controlled to about 160-210 kPa (23-31 psi) depending on engine operating conditions. Excess fuel is then returned to the fuel tank.
TEST DESCRIPTION: Numbers below refer to circled numbers on the diagnostic chart.
5. Checks for restricted fuel feed pipe, or fuel filter or for a faulty fuel pressure regulator.
6. This determines if there is a restricted fuel return pipe or fuel pressure regulator.
