ABSTRACT:
A fuel system for a marine vessel attaches a fuel pump directly to the outer surface of a remote fuel tank that is displaced from the internal combustion engine to which the fuel is supplied. A pressure regulator is used to maintain a particular fluid pressure at the outlet of the pump and excess fuel is returned directly into the fuel reservoir. Fuel is drawn upward by the inlet of the pump through a conduit that extends downwardly into fluid communication with liquid fuel within the remote reservoir. A filter can be provided to filter the liquid fuel as it is drawn into the conduit.
