Fuel System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Ford Pickup, 2006 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2006 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2006 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The fuel system used on the 6.0L direct injection (DI) turbo diesel engine is controlled by the powertrain control module (PCM).

The fuel system components consist of:

Fuel to be supplied to the combustion chambers passes through the fuel-conditioning module into the secondary fuel filter, then to the cylinder head galleries and then through the electrohydraulic injectors.

Excess fuel not used by the engine bypasses the secondary fuel filter, flows through the fuel pressure regulator assembly and returns to the fuel conditioning module.
