6. ഓപ്പറേഷൻ
The Bosch 67166 Fuel Pump Module Assembly utilizes advanced turbine pump technology. This design offers several operational advantages:
- Near Silent Operation: The turbine design virtually eliminates the fuel pulsation and noise often associated with older roller-cell and inner-gear pump designs, contributing to a quieter driving experience.
- Improved Drivability: Consistent fuel delivery and pressure contribute to smoother engine performance and enhanced vehicle response.
- ഒപ്റ്റിമൽ പ്രകടനം: Engineered to operate reliably in extreme temperatures and under low fuel conditions, ensuring consistent fuel supply when needed most.
- വിപുലീകരിച്ച സേവന ജീവിതം: The robust design and quality materials significantly reduce wear on internal components, leading to a longer operational lifespan for the pump.
7. പരിപാലനം
The Bosch 67166 Fuel Pump Module Assembly is designed for long-term reliability with minimal maintenance. However, proper fuel system hygiene is crucial for its longevity:
- Fuel Strainer: The included fuel strainer is critical for preventing contaminants from entering the pump, which is a primary cause of pump failure. Ensure the strainer is properly installed and consider inspecting it during major fuel system service.
- ഇന്ധന നിലവാരം: Always use high-quality, clean fuel. Contaminated fuel can clog the strainer and damage the pump.
- ഇന്ധന ഫിൽട്ടർ: Regularly replace your vehicle's in-line fuel filter (if applicable) according to the manufacturer's recommendations to protect the entire fuel system, including the pump.
- കുറഞ്ഞ ഇന്ധനത്തിൽ ഓടുന്നത് ഒഴിവാക്കുക: While the pump is designed to operate under low fuel conditions, consistently running the fuel tank near empty can expose the pump to higher temperatures and potentially shorten its lifespan.
8. പ്രശ്നപരിഹാരം
If you experience issues after installation or during vehicle operation, consider the following common troubleshooting steps. For complex issues, consult a qualified automotive technician.
| ലക്ഷണം | സാധ്യമായ കാരണം | ആക്ഷൻ |
|---|---|---|
| എഞ്ചിൻ ക്രാങ്ക് ചെയ്യുന്നു, പക്ഷേ സ്റ്റാർട്ട് ആകുന്നില്ല | No fuel pressure, electrical issue, clogged fuel filter | Check fuel pump fuse/relay. Verify electrical connections to the pump. Check fuel pressure at the rail. Inspect fuel filter. |
| എഞ്ചിൻ തകരാറിലാകുന്നു അല്ലെങ്കിൽ തകരാറിലാകുന്നു | Inconsistent fuel pressure, contaminated fuel, clogged injectors | Check fuel pressure. Inspect fuel for contaminants. Consider fuel system cleaner or injector service. |
| Whining noise from fuel tank | Fuel pump working harder than usual, low fuel level, clogged strainer | Ensure adequate fuel level. Inspect fuel strainer for clogs. |
| ഇന്ധന ഗേജ് കൃത്യമല്ല. | Fuel level sender issue (part of module assembly) | Verify electrical connection to the sender. If new pump, ensure float arm moves freely. |
