<4WD>
This fuel system is designed with consideration for
global environment protection to ensure safety at a
collision, reduce weight, and improve reliability and
quality. This system has the following features:
• A quick-joint connector of a plastic tube is used
for the fuel high-pressure hose in the engine
compartment to reduce the permeation of fuel
evaporative emission.
• The surface of under floor fuel line pipes is
coated with 1-mm thickness of resin to improve
resistance to corrosion and chipping.
• A return less fuel system eliminates returned fuel
from the engine. The heat that fuel receives from
the engine is reduced, minimising fuel tempera-
ture in the fuel tank and controlling the amount of
evaporated gas.
• The activated charcoal of fuel vapour canister is
modified for downsizing, weight saving and better
performance.
FUEL TANK
M2134001001672
The fuel tank assembly consists of components such
as a fuel pump and gauge assembly, a fuel gauge
unit, and a fuel tank, and has the following features:
• The fuel tank is mounted underneath the second
seat to improve safety at a collision.
• The fuel tank itself is made of a pre-coat galva-
nized steel sheet that contains no lead.
• The capacity of the fuel tank is 63 litres <2WD>
or 60 litres <4WD> to meet long-distance drives.
• A fuel tank safety valve, which prevents fuel leak-
age when the vehicle banks or rolls over, is
located inside the fuel tank for fewer openings
and hose bonding points on the fuel tank top sur-
face.
• A built-in fuel filter and a fuel tank suction hose
have been adopted to meet the fuel tank of a sad-
dleback shape. <4WD>
The fuel pump and gauge assembly consist of the
following components:
• Fuel pump
• Fuel gauge unit
• Fuel filter
• Fuel pressure regulator
