Fuel Module
The fuel module is a component of the fuel delivery system that manages the quantification and extraction of fuel inside the fuel tank present on every vehicle. A fuel module is the unit in a gas tank that sends fuel to the engine. Other than the pump itself, the assembly comprises several other components, each with a special function in the fuel pumping system. Also known as fuel pump module assembly, the fuel pump assembly ensures that clean, pressurized fuel reaches the fuel injectors.
