Abstract
A marine engine is constructed having an improved component layout so as to reduce the tendency of an engine fuel pump being exposed to water. This advantage is accomplished while shielding the fuel pump from water that may enter through an access opening above the engine. In one form the fuel pump is mounted under an air intake system of the engine. The fuel pump is also desirably arranged to reduce thermal effects on the fuel pump by positioning the fuel pump on an air intake pipe of the engine. In another from, the fuel pump is mounted under and inclined cylinder block and an exhaust system.
