Engine Fuel System

The fuel injection system is all-electronic and is microprocessor controlled. It can continually compensate for variations in engine load, speed and temperature to give the best economy and power. The most unique feature of the system is the air mass meter which measures the mass of the inducted air instead of the volume. In this way the system can make instantaneous adjustments for changes in air temperature or density, thus always assuring the best economy with the lowest possible exhaust emissions.

Special instructions for work on the fuel injection system

Extreme cleanliness is essential when working on the injection system. Great care must be observed. Injection system service should be handled by qualified technicians, using equipment intended for this service.

Fuel (line) filter

We recommend that this filter be changed every 60,000 miles (96,000 km). The filter is replaces as one complete unit.

Replace more frequently if contaminated fuel was introduced into the tank.
