A controller of a fuel system for a vehicle is provided in which heat is dissipated outside from a printed circuit board to cool the controller. The dissipated heat is utilized to maximize the efficiency of the purge operation using a canister by waste heat. The controller is integrated with an air filter for removing foreign substances from air to be suctioned into a canister, and is configured to realize heat exchange between air passing through the air filter and a motor driver.

An in-tank fuel pump assembly and mounting system is disclosed which may be configured for mounting inside a fuel tank. The assembly includes a pump housing, pump mounted to the housing, and pressure relief valve. The housing may comprise upper and lower pump housing units coupled together. The upper housing unit is configured for mounting to a tank opening, which in one implementation may be the fuel fill opening. The lower housing unit extends into the tank to approximately the bottom of the tank. A fuel fill fluid pathway is created through the housing for adding fuel to the tank while the pump assembly remains in situ. The upper housing unit may include a removable fuel cap. The pump housing may include an integral vapor trap.

A two-wheeled vehicle includes a frame assembly, a plurality of ground-engaging members for supporting the frame assembly, and a cooling assembly positioned below a head portion of the frame assembly and intermediate vertically-extending frame tubes of the frame assembly. A lower end of the cooling assembly is coupled to a lower end of the vertically-extending frame tubes, and an upper end of the cooling assembly is frictionally retained at an upper end of each of the vertically-extending frame tubes.

A fuel pump hanger assembly configured to fit two fuel pumps into the small opening of a fuel tank, even if the diameter of both fuel pumps combined is larger than the opening of the fuel tank. The fuel pumps may be inserted into the fuel tank one at a time, then assembled together through the small opening of the fuel tank. The parts self-locate inside the fuel tank and the assembly held together with bolts. This self-locating feature facilitates the assembly of all parts inside the small opening of the fuel tank. The hanger holds two common fuel pumps and comes with fittings for interfacing to the car's fuel and vapor lines.

A fuel pump to fuel tank attachment assembly for a vehicle includes a retainer ring firmly attached to a portion of the fuel tank. The retainer ring is formed of the same material as the material of the fuel tank. A lock ring is positioned over, and secured to the retainer ring. A flange of the fuel pump is positioned and clamped between the retainer ring and the lock ring. The retainer ring and the lock ring circumferentially engage the flange of the fuel pump, in the mounted position of the assembly.

When a fuel tank is inclined at a negative slope and tilted to the right side, it may be tilted such that a position of a mesh member is relatively higher than a position of a vapor outlet of a vapor outlet passage. In this case, air may enter into a leak passage from an outlet port such that interfacial tension is generated in the mesh member. The interface between fuel and air is present at the mesh member, and the interfacial tension generated at the interface serves to prevent air from entering into a discharge pipe.

A pump module is disposed on a bottom portion of a fuel tank in the fuel tank. The pump module includes a suck-up unit for sucking up a fuel and a plurality of engaged portions. A bracket includes a base portion, a plurality of engaging portions, and a flow path. The base portion is a frame member fixed to the bottom portion and surrounding the pump module in a state where a lower end portion is in contact with the bottom portion. The engaging portions protrude from the base portion toward an upper side of the fuel tank and are respectively engaged with the engaged portions of the pump module. The flow path is disposed in the base portion and allows an inside of a frame of the base portion and an outside of the frame of the base portion to communicate with each other.

In at least some implementations, a wire includes a core formed from an electrically conductive material and having an outer surface, and a polymeric insulator surrounding the core. The insulator has a resistivity of between 10.sup.5 and 10.sup.9 ohms/square, and the insulator has an inner surface engaged with the core. In at least some implementations, the core is formed from metal and has a conductivity of at least 1106 m. The insulator may include a base material and a conductive material in the base material, wherein the conductive material has a conductivity between 10.sup.5 and 10.sup.6 ohms/square. The insulator may have an outer surface that defines an outer surface of the wire and/or the insulator may have an inner surface engaged with the core.

Methods and systems are provided for protective cover. In one example, the protective cover may be configured to protect a fuel delivery module and may include a domed cap. The domed cap may resistant forces exerted on the protective cover and maintain clearance between the domed cap and enclosed electronic ports of the fuel delivery module.

A system for housing a fuel pump and a fuel filter including a stem body having a first surface and an opposing second surface. A first, third, and fifth orifice may be located in the first surface. A second, fourth and sixth orifice may be located in the second surface. The second orifice may carry the fuel filter, and be in fluid communication with the first orifice. The fourth orifice may interface with an inlet to the fuel pump, and be in fluid communication with the third orifice. The sixth orifice may be in fluid communication with the fifth orifice. A first channel may be adapted to place the first orifice in fluid communication with the third orifice. A second channel may be adapted to place the fifth orifice, located at a first end of the second channel, in fluid communication with a second end of the second channel.
