Chevy CK Pickup Fuel System Parts

All modern vehicles are powered by internal combustion engines that use fuel and oxygen to create controlled explosion inside the engine cylinders and produce power to move the vehicle. And a fuel system is what delivers fuel to the engine. Your Chevy CK Pickup may be using either gasoline or diesel fuel, depending on its production year, exact model, and engine type. Both systems work similarly, but there is a key difference in their operation, that defines what set of fuel system parts are used in your CK. In both cases, fuel is stored in a fuel tank, pumped out of it by a fuel pump, and then transferred through a fuel filter that eliminates all impurities.

What happens next differs gas and diesel fuel systems. After being filtered, gasoline is delivered to a carburetor (on earlier CK models) or intake manifold (on newer CKs) where it mixes with air and then is supplied to combustion chambers. In diesel CKs, fuel is sprayed into cylinders that already contain compressed, and therefore extremely hot air. As you can see, a fuel system is a complex structure, and if any of its parts fails to operate properly, your Chevy CK will simply get stuck at the roadside or in your garage. Luckily, modern aftermarket Chevy CK Pickup fuel system parts can replace any faulty components with no loss in quality. So don’t keep your vehicle off the road for too long!
