Fuel system Mercedes Sprinter 2006 includes fuel lines, injectors, fuel filter base and more
The fuel system are parts that deliver fuel from the tank to the combustion chamber. Diesel and gasoline fuel systems differ from each other, however, they have many common features. The main difference is the pressure at which the fuel is delivered to the injectors. Indirect injection gasoline systems operate at pressures from 0.4 to 4 bar. The systems supplying fuel to diesel engines operate at a pressure of up to 250 bar. The high pressure pump is responsible for generating the required pressure in diesel engines. A fuel pressure regulator is used in gasoline engines.

Injectors Mercedes Sprinter W906
Common Rail technology is used in the Mercedes Sprinter, as in most modern cars with diesel engines. It has much less failure possibility than the previously used injection pump. The injection pump fed fuel to a specific injector, which opened due to the pressure and supplied fuel to the combustion chamber. In the Common Rail systems of the Mercedes Sprinter, the fuel is under constant pressure in the common rail and then the computer, sending an electrical impulse, opens a specific injector. Engines equipped with a Common Rail injector system are more economical and ecological than engines powered by an injection pump. The Common Rail system in Mercedes engines, thanks to precise control of the fuel dose, allows to achieve the highest power with the lowest fuel consumption.
Mercedes Sprinter 2006 fuel filler cap
An inconspicuous but necessary element of the fuel system is the fuel cap. It protects the fuel in the tank against air pollution. A small amount of contaminants that gets into the fuel tank during refueling will be easily trapped in the fuel filter, but a constantly open tank will cause so much dirt to accumulate that the fuel filter will be clogged very quickly. A regular fuel filler cap will protect our tank from accidental contamination. However, it is also worth protecting yourself against intentional fuel contamination by installing a fuel filler cap with a lock and key in your van.
