A unitary assembly for retaining the various components of a fuel control system on a vehicle, wherein the assembly includes a unitary module at least partially structured in the form of a mounting assembly operative to contain and support at least a portion of the fuel control system specifically including a containment structure or at least one fuel tank for storing and operatively disposing a fuel supply associated with the fuel control system. An electronic control unit of the fuel control system is structured to facilitate metering and distribution of an operative fuel mixture which may include an alternate fuel as well as a conventional distillate fuel. The module and the mounting assembly are cooperatively structured to collectively retain the electronic control unit, the containment structure and at least a portion of a remainder of the fuel control system as a self-contained unit on the vehicle.
