FUNCTION
Fuel Returnless System
This system is used to reduce the evaporative emission. As shown below, by integrating the fuel filter, pressure regulator, charcoal canister, and fuel sender gauge with fuel pump assembly, it is possible to discontinue the return of fuel from the engine area and prevent temperature rise inside the fuel tank.

CONSTRUCTION
Fuel Tank Assembly
A multiplex layered plastic fuel tank is used. This fuel tank consists of 6 layers of 4 types of materials.
A fuel drain mark has been provided at the lowest position of the fuel tank. When dismantling (scrapping) the vehicle, drain fuel by drilling a hole at the drain mark.

Injector
The injector is shaped to form a long nozzle. This shortens the distance from the injector to intake valve, which prevents the fuel from adhering to the intake port walls and reduces exhaust emissions.
