Fuel supply system for an engine powering an outboard motor

摘要

A fuel supply system for an engine powering an outboard motor is disclosed. The fuel supply system includes a first pump for delivering fuel from a fuel supply to a fuel reservoir located at the motor. Another pump delivers fuel from the reservoir to a charge former. The rate of fuel delivery into the reservoir is regulated by a valve based upon the level of the fuel within the reservoir. A flow rate sensor is provided for sensing the fuel flow rate into the reservoir. The fuel system is arranged to limit a change in sensed fuel flow rate when a position of the motor is changed, such as when the motor is trimmed.
