145 - MiTo   1.4 16v TJet   INTRODUCTION - FUEL TANK AND PIPES      


CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATIONS

The fuel supply system is the returnless type, i.e. with a single connecting pipe between the fuel tank and the engine.

The return pipe, near the tank, incorporates a single-acting valve which prevents the fuel from escaping if the pipe is broken.

The fuel tank is positioned in front of the rear axle and is made of a plastic which has a high mechanical resistance.

The fuel pressure is controlled by a dedicated differential pressure regulator fitted on the fuel manifold.
