(Engine system terminology and function of each component –Fuel System)

FUEL SYSTEM
The function of the fuel system is to store and supply fuel to the
cylinder chamber where it can be mixed with air, vaporized, and burned to
produce energy. The fuel, which can be either gasoline or diesel is stored in
a fuel tank. A fuel pump draws the fuel from the tank through fuel lines and
delivers it through a fuel filter to either a carburetor or fuel injector, then
delivered to the cylinder chamber for combustion.

5. Fuel Pump
The fuel pump is used to pump the fuel from the fuel tank, via the fuel
lines into the fuel injectors, which spray the fuel into the combustion
chamber- in order to create combustion. There are two types, mechanical
fuel pumps (used in carburetors) and electronic fuel pumps (used in
electronic fuel injection).
6. Fuel Filter
The fuel filter is the key to a properly functioning fuel delivery system.
This is true with fuel injection than with carbureted cars. Fuel injectors are
more susceptible to damage from dirt because of their close tolerances, but
also fuel injected cars use electric fuel pumps. When the filter clogs, the
electric fuel pump works so hard to push
past the filter, that it burns itself up. Most
cars use two filters. One inside the gas tank
and one in a line to the fuel injectors or
carburetor. Unless some severe and unusual
conditions occur to cause a large amount of
dirt to enter the gas tank, it is only necessary
to replace the filter in the line.

7. Fuel Lines
The Fuel Lines connect all of the various Fuel System components.
Steel lines and flexible hoses carry the fuel from the tank to the engine.
When servicing or replacing the steel lines, copper or aluminum must never
be used. Steel lines must be replaced with
steel. When replacing flexible rubber
hoses, the proper hose must be used.
Ordinary rubber such as used in vacuum
or water hose will soften and deteriorate.
Be careful to route all hoses away from
the exhaust system.

Based on the age of the vehicle, the type of carburetion/fuel injection,
and the emissions standards in place at the time it may also have:
They are generally the same types of line tubing as the main Fuel
Line. These specific lines are used for a
couple purposes. Primarily they are used to
return excess fuel to the gas tank for
recirculation. Additionally, they capture
gasoline vapors, which, as they are pushed
back to the gas tank cool and condense back
into the liquid. In particular, diesel-powered
fuel injected engines often use the fuel as a
cooling mechanism for the fuel injector. They
can recirculate significant amounts of fuel.

carburetion, is a high-pressure system. The fuel pressure regulator ensures
that the system maintains the proper amount of pressurization.
