ABSTRACT:
An upper intake pipe and a lower intake pipe interconnecting a left bank and a throttle body are disposed along a left side of a V-shaped multi-cylinder engine having a vertically placed crankshaft. The lower intake pipe is disposed by utilizing a waste space which is defined between a starter motor and an oil filter, while the oil filter is disposed by utilizing a waste space which is defined between the upper and lower intake pipes. Thus, it is possible to rationally dispose the intake pipes and other auxiliaries on a side of an engine block to reduce the size of the engine for the outboard engine system.
