1999 V70XC Fuel Pressure Regulator Return Line Pinch Point

Here is the FPR in real life …from Neil’s thread documenting the AWD fuel lines. The open metal nipple accepts vacuum from the evap line to regulate fuel pressure

Note on the AWD cars, the excess fuel pressure is bled over to the ejector pump to extract fuel from left to right tank, on FWD cars it just returns ti the tank

Hello Abscate,

I'm facing a problem on this ejector pump; it do not work as at 30L on the dashboard, my car stops running, out of gas. Is this pump only working with fuel pressure? In this case do you know how to repair it, or what's causing this dyfunction?

thanks!

Bonjour!

The driver side uses an ‘ ejector pump’ which has no electrical part, it just uses fuel flow to move the fuel from left to right side tank. If the fuel pump pressure starts to get low you lose that function. 30 liters is about right for failure of the ejector pump

To fix either the electric fuel pump or the ejector pump the tank can be dropped without removing the axle by lowering it, if the pipes are bad the whole axle has to come down, a 5-10 hour job
