Brief description, 4-cyl

When the engine is started, the fuel pump begins to work and fuel is sucked from the reservoir located inside the fuel tank. Fuel is sucked via a fuel filter fitted to the side of the fuel tank up to the engine's fuel pump.

Return fuel, i.e. unused fuel, flows back to the fuel tank, where it passes a negative ejector located in the fuel tank. In turn, the ejector fills the reservoir from which the diesel pump sucks fuel. In brief, an ejector is a cylinder with three openings, one in each short side and one in the cylinder wall. When fuel flows through the cylinder (in on one short side and out the other), a vacuum builds at the hole in the cylinder wall. This vacuum is used to suck fuel up from the fuel tank and keep the reservoir filled.

The reservoir, which is located in the fuel tank, ensures that the pump can suction fuel regardless of how the car is leaning.

The fuel filter is located by the fuel tank. Its task is to separate impurities and water from the fuel so that the fuel system is not damaged.
