Abstract:
1. An electronic control module assembly for an internal combustion engine, the assembly comprising: an electronic control module (ECM); an ECM cooler coupled to the ECM, the ECM cooler having a cooling passage inlet and a cooling passage outlet with a cooling passage therebetween for circulating a cooling fluid; a lift pump comprising: an inlet cooling fluid line coupled to the pump inlet; an outlet cooling fluid line coupled to the pump outlet; wherein one of the inlet cooling fluid line and outlet cooling fluid line are coupled to one of the cooling passage outlet and cooling passage inlet for cooling fluid flow therebetween; a first frustoconical grommet mounted to the lift pump adjacent the pump inlet, the first frustoconical grommet having a first end with a first diameter and a second end with a second diameter, wherein the first diameter is smaller than the second diameter and wherein the first end is closer to the pump inlet than the second end; a second frustoconical grommet mounted to the lift pump adjacent the pump outlet, the second frustoconical grommet having a third end with a third diameter and a fourth end with a fourth diameter, wherein the third diameter is smaller than the fourth diameter and wherein the third end is closer to the pump outlet than the fourth end; a first bracket mounted to the ECM cooler and engaging the first frustoconical grommet, the first bracket shaped to conform to at least a portion of the first frustoconical grommet; and a second bracket mounted to the ECM cooler and engaging the second frustoconical grommet, the second bracket shaped to conform to at least a portion of the second frustoconical grommet; wherein the lift pump can be disengaged from the ECM cooler by removing one of the first bracket and the second bracket and removing one of the inlet cooling fluid line and the outlet cooling fluid line.
