3 System 

Operation 

The engine control module (ECM) is the control centre of the V6 engine management system. The ECM constantly 
monitors and evaluates inputs from various sensors and switches. Based on these inputs, the ECM controls the 
operation of the engine management system. Refer to Figure 6C1-1 – 6 for the illustration of the inputs and outputs of 
the ECM.

Fuel Delivery System 

Fuel System Pressure 

When the ignition switch is turned on, the ECM energises the fuel pump circuit and the fuel pump runs and builds up 
pressure in the fuel system. The fuel pump will continue to operate if the engine is started or as long as the engine is 
cranking or running and the ECM detects crankshaft position (CKP) sensor signal pulses. If the CKP sensor signal 
pulses stop, the ECM de-energises the fuel pump circuit within two seconds, which stops the fuel pump operation. 

The vehicle is fitted with a modular fuel pump and sender assembly that provides delivery of fuel from the fuel tank and 
information on the fuel level. The fuel delivery system is a single line, on-demand design. With the fuel pressure regulator 
incorporated into the modular fuel pump and sender assembly, the need for a return pipe from the engine is eliminated. 

The electric fuel pump contained in the modular fuel pump and sender assembly provides fuel at a pressure greater than 
the regulated pressure which is supplied to the fuel rail. The fuel is then distributed through the fuel rail to six injectors 
located directly above each cylinder’s two intake valves. 

Having a single line fuel supply system reduces the internal temperature of the fuel tank by not returning hot fuel from the 
engine. In reducing the internal temperature of the fuel tank, lower evaporative emissions are achieved. 

Unleaded fuel must be used to ensure correct emission parameters and engine operation. Leaded fuel damages the 
emission control system and use of leaded fuel can result in loss of emission warranty. Using unleaded fuel will also 
minimise any spark plug fouling and extend engine oil life.
