How long does it take for the fuel pump pressure to completely release?
1 Answers
Generally, the fuel pressure in most vehicles is similar, maintaining around 280-300kpa at idle. Below is more information about fuel pumps: 1. Introduction: Among the four wires of an automotive fuel pump, two are for the fuel level sensor (commonly known as the float), one is for power supply, and one connects to the fuel gauge. The other two wires are for the fuel pump itself—one for power supply and one as the ground wire. The fuel pump operates with high current, hence the thicker wires, while the sensor wires are thinner, making them easy to distinguish. 2. Fuel Pump Relay: Abbreviated as PMR in English, which stands for Pump-Motor-Relay. The fuel pump relay controls the power supply to the pump. Modern vehicles typically use direct injection or port injection. Once the fuel supply meets certain requirements, the relay cuts off power to the pump, thereby controlling its operation. 3. Basic Function of Automotive Relays: They act as an "automatic switch" that uses a small current to control a larger current. In circuits, they perform functions such as automatic regulation, safety protection, circuit switching, and more.
