Abstract
A first fuel storage portion is disposed on the upstream side of a fuel supply device of an engine so as to be contiguous with an air-intake passage of the fuel supply device. A blow-back suppression plate for suppressing blow-back from the air-intake passage is disposed between a filter element and the first fuel storage portion of an air cleaner. A suction-back passage is formed such that fuel accumulated in a fuel accumulation portion in the air cleaner is suctioned back through the suction-back passage into the air-intake passage. The suction-back passage allows communication between the fuel accumulation portion in the air cleaner and a suction-back port formed at the downstream-side end of the first fuel storage portion.
