Power supply system check, replacement of the fuel filter
|
Gasoline is extremely inflammable therefore at work with any components of fuel system it is necessary to accept special precautionary measures! Do not smoke, and do not come nearer to a venue of works with open fire or unprotected by the lamp shade carrying. Do not perform such works in the garages equipped with heating devices, working at natural gas (such, as водогреи, dryers, etc.)! The working platform should be ventilated well. At gasoline hit on skin immediately wash away it water with soap. At carrying out any works with fuel system put on goggles and hold near at hand the fire extinguisher. In case of a gasoline spillage immediately wipe a pool, but do not keep the rags impregnated with gasoline in places where the risk of its ignition is not excluded! |
System check
|
At emergence of a smell of fuel during movement or after the car stood on the sun, it is necessary to check a condition of all fuel system immediately.
Uncover a fuel tank and check it on existence of damages and signs of development of corrosion. Estimate a condition of a sealing element of a cover. Defective components replace.
Survey lines of giving and fuel return on existence of cracks and deformations. Estimate reliability of a tightening of shtutserny connections on the fuel distributive highway and the built-in fuel filter.
Having hung out the car, examine a fuel tank and its jellied mouth on existence of holes, cracks and other damages. It is necessary to give special attention to a condition of a joint of a mouth with a tank. Sometimes leakages of fuel arise owing to weakening of collars of fastening of a mouth, or because of rubber aging of which the mouth is made. Attentively study a condition of elements of fastening of a fuel tank, in case of need make the corresponding corrections.
|
At all do not undertake attempts of independent performance of repair of a fuel tank (excepting replacement of its rubber components), - remember that contact of fuel evaporations containing in a tank to open fire of a gas torch inevitably leads to ignition! |
Carefully check reliability of a tightening of all shtutserny connections of fuel hoses and the metal lines going from a tank. Make sure of absence of deformations and signs of aging of materials of flexible hoses. Replace defective components.

Location of the fuel filter in a path of a power supply system of the diesel engine
The fuel filter is switched on in submitting топливопровод on a site between a fuel tank and TNVD.
Sediment plums
|
Release a drain stopper in the lower part of a working element of the filter and lower from the filter all sediment, - wait the beginnings of an effluence of pure fuel.
Strongly tighten a stopper and make removal from the air filter.

|
Replacement of a working element
|
|
Disconnect electroconducting from the sediment sensor detector.
|
|
By means of a suitable key turn out a working element of the filter.
|
|
In case of need remove from the filter the sensor detector of a sediment and check serviceability of its functioning by means of an ohmmeter: conductivity between contact plugs of the socket should take place only in the bottom provision of a float. The sensor can be rearranged on a replaceable working element.
|
Moisten with fuel a sealing ring, screw a working element of the filter in a cover and tighten it manually.
Restore initial connection of electroconducting and топливопроводов, - track correctness of connection of hoses.
|
Weaken a ventilating stopper and, 7-8 times (prior to the beginning of a fuel exit) having rocked up-down a plunzher, fill the filter with fuel, - in the filter should not remain air jams.
