ABSTRACT:
A fuel delivery system includes a fuel control module for regulating a fuel pump within a fuel tank independent of the engine control module. The fuel control module is connected to a restraint control module for receiving a signal directly therefrom in the event of vehicle impact. The fuel control module is adapted to cease fuel pump operation in response to an impact signal without requiring a signal from the engine control module.
