FUEL SUPPLY

13B-2

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

M1135000100242

1. The fuel tank is located under the floor below the 

rear seats.

2. A fuel cut-off valve has been adopted to prevent 

fuel from leaking out in the event of a collision.

FUEL SUPPLY DIAGNOSIS

INTRODUCTION TO FUEL SUPPLY DIAGNOSIS

M1135004000300

The fuel supply device is used to supply an appropri-
ate mixture to the engine. The device is configured of 
the fuel tank, fuel filter, fuel pump and the fuel pipe 
that couples each part. An evaporative emission con-
trol system is also provided to prevent pollution from 
the evaporated fuel.

Engine malfunctions caused by insufficient fuel sup-
ply and evaporative emission control system opera-
tion malfunctions can be caused by faults in the 
vapor line, fuel pipe, hose, or fuel tank pressure con-
trol valve, etc.
