- lifetime in tank fuel filter on 3.7L and 5.0L (4V) vehicles (serviced as part of the FP module).
- fuel level sensor.
- Easy Fuel™ (capless) fuel tank filler pipe assembly.
- inline fuel filter on 5.8L (4V) vehicles only.
- Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) sensor (part of the fuel vapor tube assembly).
- fuel tubes (liquid and vapor).
- Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM)
The vehicle:
- utilizes an Electronic Returnless Fuel System (ERFS) on 5.8L (4V) vehicles and a Mechanical Returnless Fuel System (MRFS) on 3.7L and 5.0L (4V) vehicles.
- has a dual-container (saddle-type) fuel tank, each half equipped with a fuel level sender.
