Fuel is used to cool and lubricate the fuel injectors and the fuel injection pump. The fuel return system is designed to return this fuel to the fuel tank. If the high side fuel pressure becomes excessive, the fuel rail pressure relief valve releases the fuel into the fuel return system. The return fuel travels through the fuel cooler to the fuel tank.
