ABSTRACT:
This invention discloses a device by which fuel flow within a pressurized fuel system can accurately be measured to determine if the flow of fuel falls within an acceptable range. If the device detects that the fuel flow is not within normal operating ranges of the fuel system, then the device will provide a warning indication that a malfunction or fuel leakage is present in the fuel system or shut off power to the fuel pump providing the flow of fuel. The detection device can either be a device which detects the actual flow of the through the fuel line, or a device which detects the pressure within the fuel line. By this invention, a pending malfunction, such as fuel filter blockage or leaking fuel line, can be ascertained before the malfunction becomes a serious problem.
