Air vent construction of subtank in engine

摘要

A subsidiary tank 89 provided on a side wall of an engine block on an outboard engine system temporarily stores a fuel supplied from a fuel tank not shown and provided on a hull, and pressurizes the fuel to a high pressure to deliver it to a fuel injection valve 94. An upper space in the subsidiary tank 89 is connected to an inner space of an intake silencer 76 through two air vent pipes L7, L8. Even when a fuel vapor liquefies in the intake silencer 76 at the time of engine suspension, the liquefied fuel is caught at a bottom of the intake silencer 76 having a large volume with no possibility of flowing out.
