Figure 1-8. Fuel System

c. Fuel System. In the fuel system (Figure 1-8) fuel drawn from the fuel tank (1) and passes through the

electrical priming fuel pump (2) and the fuel/water separator (3). A fuel shut-off valve (4) controls the flow of fuel to

the engine. A mechanical fuel pump (5) draws fuel through the secondary fuel filter (6) to the engine. Surplus fuel

from the injectors is returned to the fuel tank through a return line. The fuel/water separator removes water and large

solid particles from the fuel. The finer particles are removed by the secondary filter before they can enter the fuel

injectors.
