Abstract: A multi-cylinder engine wherein a direction in which a crank shaft spans is a front and rear direction and a widthwise direction of a cylinder head (1) perpendicular to the front and rear direction is a lateral direction, the multi-cylinder engine comprising the cylinder head (1) which has one lateral side to which an intake-air distributing passage wall (2) and has the other lateral side to which an exhaust-gas converging passage wall (3), a common rail (10) being arranged around the cylinder head (1). In this multi-cylinder engine, the common rail (10) is arranged immediately lateral of the intake-air distributing passage wall (2), thereby positioning the intake-air distributing passage wall (2) between the cylinder head (1) and the common rail (10). Preferably, an intake-air inlet pipe (11) is made to stand up at an upper portion of the intake-air distributing passage wall (2) and is provided with an intake-air flange portion (12), which is positioned just above the common rail (10).

Abstract: A fuel injection device 23 adapted to be attached to an engine and provided with a pump case 1, a fuel injection pump 2, a fuel injection cam shaft 3, a connecting portion 5, an input end portion 6 of the fuel injection cam shaft 3 and a temporary holding means 10 is employed and the following procedures are carried out. Both, revolution of the fuel injection cam shaft 3 and of a crankshaft 17 is stopped. The pump case 1 is connected to an engine timing gear case 8, and engagements for a timing gear train 43 are carried out. Play in the timing gear train 43 is removed during the turning of the pump case 1 and the pump case 1 is fixedly secured to the timing gear case 8. Thereafter, of the fuel injection cam shaft 3 and the crankshaft 17 are released and allowed rotate.
