Abstract
A fuel system that provides fuel to an internal combustion engine includes a fuel tank and a fuel pump configured to receive fluid from the fuel tank and supply pressurized fluid to the engine via a fuel filter. The filter receives fuel from the pump and provides filtered fuel to the engine. The filter is disposed in a filter chamber of a filter housing. The filter housing includes a fuel inlet that directs fuel received from the fuel pump into the filter chamber, a fuel outlet that directs filtered fuel received from the fuel filter to the fuel supply line, and a bypass outlet that directs fuel not drawn into the fuel filter by the internal combustion engine to a fuel pressure regulator. The regulator receives the unfiltered fuel from the bypass outlet and returns the unfiltered fuel to the fuel tank.
