Fuel Pump (FP) Assembly And Reservoir
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 25 other vehicles, including the 2013 Lincoln Navigator, 2013 Lincoln MKZ, 2013 Lincoln MKX, 2013 Lincoln MKT, and 2013 Lincoln MKS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The FP assembly is mounted inside the fuel tank in a reservoir. The pump has a discharge check valve that maintains the system pressure after the ignition has been turned OFF to minimize starting concerns. The reservoir prevents fuel flow interruptions during extreme vehicle maneuvers with low tank fill levels.
