Abstract: To improve a freedom of layout within a narrow cowling of the outboard engine, achieve a reduction of manufacturing cost and an improvement of a maintenance performance of a filter member, a fuel supply apparatus in an outboard engine is structured such that fuel within a fuel tank is supplied into a vapor separator (V) via a low pressure fuel pump, the fuel stored within the vapor separator (V) is pressurized by a high pressure fuel pump (P) and is supplied to a fuel injection valve via a filter, a pump case (10) receiving the high pressure fuel pump (P) is arranged in a side portion of the vapor separator (10), an upper opening thereof is fixed by a cover member (14), a fuel discharge passage (15) connected to a pump discharge passage (PB) of the high pressure fuel pump (P) and a filter receiving recess portion (16) connected to the fuel discharge passage (15) are formed in the cover member (14), and a filter member (17) is detachably arranged in the filter receiving recess portion (16).

Abstract: An outboard motor auxiliary fuel tank/fuel pump assembly includes an auxiliary fuel tank disposed in an engine compartment and a fuel pump joined to one side of the auxiliary fuel tank for supplying fuel stored within the auxiliary fuel tank to fuel injection valves of an engine. A float of a float valve provided within the auxiliary fuel tank is supported in the auxiliary fuel tank via a pivot shaft that is parallel to a tilt shaft of an outboard motor. First and second mounting bosses on which the fuel pump can be mounted are formed on the right side face and the front end face of the auxiliary fuel tank.
