Introductory Message!
Welcome to TVL 11 - IA (Automotive Servicing NC I)!

The Learning Activity Sheet is a product of the collaborative efforts


of the Schools Division of Capiz and DepEd Regional Office VI - Western
Visayas through the Curriculum and Learning Management Division
(CLMD). This is developed to guide the learning facilitators (teachers,
parents and responsible adults) in helping the learners meet the standards
set by the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum.

The Learning Activity Sheet is self-directed instructional materials


aimed to guide the learners in accomplishing activities at their own pace and
time using the contextualized resources in the community. This will also
assist the learners in acquiring the lifelong learning skills, knowledge and
attitudes for productivity and employment.

For learning facilitator:

The TVL 11 - IA (Automotive Servicing NC I) Activity Sheet will


help you facilitate the teaching-learning activities specified in each
Curriculum Guide with minimal or no face-to-face encounter between you
and learner. This will be made available to the learners with the
references/links to ease the independent learning.

For the learner:

The TVL 11 - IA (Automotive Servicing NC I) Activity Sheet is developed


to help you continue learning even if you are not in school. This learning
material provides you with meaningful and engaging activities for
independent learning. Being an active learner, carefully read and
understand the instructions then perform the activities and answer the
assessments. This will be returned to your facilitator on the agreed
schedule.

II. Background Information for Learners

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.

COMPONENTS OF FUEL SYSTEM AND ITS FUNCTION

1. Fuel Tank

The fuel tank is the main storage for


the fuel that runs the vehicle. Generally
speaking, the gas tank is generally found
at, or under, the rear of the vehicle.

Picture generated from www.google.com

2. Fuel Injectors:

Sprays a fine mist of fuel into the combustion chamber of each


cylinder or throttle body, depending on the design. The fuel injectors are
driven by the fuel pump and their job is to spray a fuel and air mixture into
the combustion chamber, ready to be ignited
to produce power to the driven wheels.

The fuel injectors are basically a nozzle,


with a valve attached, the nozzle creates a
spray of fuel and air droplets (atomization).
This can be viewed similar to that of a perfume
dispenser or deodorant can in, spraying a fine
mist.

3. Fuel Fill Hose

The Fuel Fill Hose is the main


connector from the gas cap to the fuel tank.
This is the point where the Gasoline (or other
fuel) is put into the vehicle.

Picture generated from www.google.com

4. Gas Cap

The gas cap seals the fill hose and is


used to ensure that

A) Gas does not spill out from the car, and


B) that the fuel system remains pressurized
correctly (in vehicles that use pressurized
systems).

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).

• Mechanical fuel pumps: these are driven


normally by auxiliary belts or chains from the
engine.

Picture generated from www.google.com

• Electronic fuel pumps: controlled by the


electronic fuel injection system, these are
normally more reliable and have fewer
reliability issues than their mechanical
counterparts.

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.

8. Fuel Gauge

The fuel gauge exists as a display item in


the vehicle’s dashboard. It is intended to
show to the driver the actual amount of fuel in
the fuel tank. On older cars, it’s common for
fuel gauges (or their related part, the
sending unit) to be inaccurate. When you
first start driving your classic car take time to
learn how accurate the system is. It’ll save
you from a long walk to the gas station if
you run out of gas!

Picture generated from www.google.com

9. Fuel Gauge Sending Unit

In terms of the fuel system, this may be your biggest headache.


Sending units, at best, are generally a flawed design. Generally, the sender
is most accurate between 1/4 and 3/4 of a tank of gas. Outside of this, the
gauge becomes progressively more
inaccurate as you reach the tank limits (full
or empty).

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:

10. Fuel return lines

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.

Picture generated from www.google.com

11. Emission Vapor Controls

These are often used in combination


with fuel return lines. The goal of this
section of the overall system is to ensure
that gasoline vapors are not released into
the ambient air. If this occurs a number of
bad things may happen: 1) The unpleasant
smell of gasoline is routed into the interior
of the vehicle, and 2) It can harm the
environment.

12. Fuel Pressure Regulator

Fuel Pressure Regulators are


primarily found in fuel-injected cars.
Fuel injection, as opposed to

PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 8
carburetion, is a high-pressure system. The fuel pressure regulator ensures
that the system maintains the proper amount of pressurization.
