Fuel System

What is a Fuel System?

The fuel system in a car consists of various components working together to deliver fuel from the tank to the engine for combustion and eventual powering of the vehicle. The operation of any automotive fuel system starts from the fuel tank that stores the fuel and ends at the engine combustion, where the fuel is burned to generate energy for the car.

The primary function of this system is to provide a consistent supply of clean fuel to the engine, enabling smooth and efficient operation, optimizing performance, and reducing emissions. The fuel system includes the fuel pump, injectors, filter, fuel lines, and hoses, all working as a unit to perform said task. Therefore, a fault or defect in one component may limit the overall vehicle’s performance.
