In the internal combustion chamber of your Jeep Cherokee ride, fuel and oxygen are mixed in a combustion process to produce the power needed to turn the crankshaft of the engine. The main task of the fuel system is to combine fuel and air in just the right ratio for the combustion and to distribute the air-fuel mixture to the combustion chamber. Composed of several parts, the fuel system works in allowing your car drive effectively in any driving condition. All its parts work together in providing your engine the right amount of fuel needed for its operation. Among the simple and often ignored part of the fuel system is the fuel tank. As it is not directly related to the power generation of the engine, it still plays a vital role in keeping the fuel safe and secured in place.

Your Jeep Cherokee fuel tank is basically a holding tank for your fuel. Every time you fill up at a gas station, the fuel goes down to the filler tube and into the tank. A fuel sending unit is placed in the tank that works in telling the fuel gauge how much gas is left in the tank. Most cars have a single tank mounted at the rear of the car. They have internal baffles that keep the fuel from sloshing back and forth. Fuel tanks consist usually of a fuel filler pipe, a vent system and a fuel outlet line to the engine. Simply put the fuel tank must carry out the following functions: store the fuel, fill, gauge, vent and feed the engine.

Fuel tanks are often made from plastic or metal. Plastic fuel tanks are made from high density polyethylene that offers low emissions of fuel thereby promoting fuel economy. Metal tanks are made from either steel or aluminum. Although metal tanks are also good for fuel economy, it is used less in cars as it tends to be less competitive. Your Jeep Cherokee fuel tank must be in top working condition in order for the fuel system to efficiently and accurately deliver fuel to the engine. When the tank is not able to hold the right amount of fuel, poor engine run can result.
