Abstract

A fuel module apparatus is for a marine engine. The fuel module apparatus includes a housing having a fuel cavity and a fuel pump in the housing. The fuel pump is configured to pump fuel through the fuel cavity from an inlet on the housing to an outlet on the housing. A cooling fluid sprayer sprays cooling fluid onto an outer surface of the housing to thereby cool the housing and the fuel in the fuel cavity.
