Abstract
A returnless type fuel delivery pipe is provided for each cylinder bank of an opposed type engine. A connecting pipe is connected to this pair of fuel delivery pipes, a supply pipe is connected to this connecting pipe, thus coupling the fuel delivery pipes with the fuel tank. The fuel delivery pipes are made to be capable of absorbing and reducing pressure pulsation through elastic deformation of the external walls thereof, and the supply pipe is connected to an intermediate section of the length of the connecting pipe. Pressure pulsations with opposite phases caused by fuel injection of the fuel delivery pipes interfere with and attenuate each other in the supply pipe at or near intersection thereof with the intermediate section of the connecting pipe.
