FUNCTION
Fuel Returnless System
This system is used to reduce the evaporative emission. As shown below, by integrating the fuel pump filter, fuel pressure regulator assembly, charcoal canister, and fuel sender gauge assembly 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 assembly.

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

Fuel Pump Assembly
A compact fuel pump, fuel pump filter, fuel pressure regulator assembly, fuel sender gauge assembly and charcoal canister are integrated into the fuel pump assembly.

Fuel Delivery Pipe
A pressed steel fuel delivery pipe is used.
Pulsation that occurs when the fuel is fed is absorbed by the volume change caused by bending in the fuel delivery pipe. Therefore, the separately provided pulsation damper has been discontinued, reducing the size and weight.
