Abstract

A fuel pumping and level detection assembly (10) for fitting in a fuel tank (12) of a motor vehicle having a small access opening (14) is provided. A method of installation is also provided. The assembly (10) comprises a fuel pump (16), a fuel filter (18), an fuel level sensor (20) having an elongate sensor body (21) and a support structure (22) including an attachment portion (24) to attach to the fuel tank (12) in the vicinity of the access opening (14) and a support portion (24) for mounting the pump (16) and filter (18) thereon. The sensor (20) is complementarily shaped with the support structure (22) to allow the sensor (20) to be slidably inserted therein providing for simple installation. The sensor (20) also provides additional strength to the support structure (22), without the need for additional components, to prevent the fuel pump (16) and filter (18) oscillating excessively in the fuel tank (12) when in use.
