Fuel Tank: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The fuel tank is constructed of a plastic material. Its main functions are for fuel storage and for placement of the fuel pump module. The tank is made from High density Polyethylene (HDPE) material. If equipped with ORVR (Onboard Refueling Vapor Recovery) it has been added to the fuel tank to control refueling vapor emissions.
The PZEV (Partial Zero Emission Vehicle) fuel tank is a steel tank with the check valves, and hoses inside of the tank. This system uses the NVLD (Natural Vacuum Leak Detection) system for leak detection for both plastic and steel tanks.
