Abstract
A wet motor gerotor fuel pump for pumping fuel from a fuel source to an internal combustion engine. The fuel pump includes a pump case having an inlet chamber, a motor chamber, and a pump chamber therebetween. An inlet housing provides appropriate fuel inlet to a gerotor pump in the pump chamber. An outlet housing receives the pressurized fuel and delivers the fuel to the internal combustion engine. An electric motor mounted in the motor chamber is adapted to pass the fuel therethrough such that the fuel is pumped substantially through the gerotor pump along a flow axis through the complete pump assembly to the internal combustion engine.
