Where do you find the fuel meter Assembly?

Average rating from 123,238 customers who received a Fuel Meter Assembly Replacement. The fuel meter assembly is the gauge or display, usually located in the instrument cluster, that displays the amount of fuel present in the vehicle’s fuel tank.

What are the symptoms of a bad fuel meter Assembly?

One of the first symptoms of a problem with the fuel meter assembly is erratic behavior from the gauge. If the fuel sending unit that is located in the gas tank fails or has any issues it can cause the needle or display to behave erratically.

What are the components of a gas metering system?

Components of a gas metering system (also called CTM) typically include: Two ultrasonic transducers, which are installed at an angle to the gas flow, operate alternately as a transmitter and receiver. The signals transmitted through the gas accelerate in the direction of flow and decelerate against the direction of flow.

How is gas metering used in custody transfer?

The gas metering system is defined as a Custody transfer where the fluid or gas is being measured for sale from one party to another. During custody transfer, accuracy is of great importance to both the company delivering the material and the eventual recipient, when transferring a material.

How are fuel inlet and metered pressure related?

Fuel inlet pressure is applied to one side of the fuel diaphragm and metered fuel pressure is applied to the other side. The differential pressure across the fuel diaphragm is called the fuel metering force.

How is the fuel meter connected to the throttle valve?

The fuel metering section is attached to the air metering section and contains an inlet fuel strainer, a manual mixture control valve, an idle valve, and the main metering jet. [Figure 5] The idle valve is connected to the throttle valve by means of an external adjustable link.

How does the Continental fuel injection system work?

The Continental fuel-injection system injects fuel into the intake valve port in each cylinder head. [Figure 10] The system consists of a fuel injector pump, a control unit, a fuel manifold, and a fuel discharge nozzle. It is a continuous-flow type, which controls fuel flow to match engine airflow.

What did the 1986-89 fuel injection system measure?

The 1986-89 TPI fuel injection system could measure the mass (Mass Air Flow Sensor) amount of air coming in the engine as well as the temperature of the air via through the intake air sensor (IAT) The coil on the large HEI was mounted on the top of the distributor cap.
