<p>A V-type diesel engine with a common rail (3), which does not elongate a total length (L) of the engine even if a supply pump (4) and/or common rail (3) becomes longer. Two intake manifolds (26A, 26B) are mounted on inner walls (25A, 25B) of two banks (21A, 21B) of the engine. The common rail (3) spans these intake manifolds (26A, 26B) to leave space (30) below itself. The fuel pump (4) is located at a bottom of an interbank valley of the banks (21A, 21B) and the common rail (3) extends above the fuel pump (4) so that the fuel pump and common rail can extend in an overlapping manner. The space (30) below the common rail (3) can accommodate other devices such as turbocharger and EGR cooler. Thus, a compact engine can be designed. The common rail (3) bridging the intake manifolds (26A, 26B) also serves as a reinforcing member against vibration of the two banks (21A, 21B). <IMAGE></p> |
