Abstract
A respective fuel injector for each cylinder in a multiple cylinder internal combustion engine. The fuel injectors being supplied with fuel via passages in the cylinder heads of the engine. The passages all open on one side of the engine. On the one side of the engine there is a longitudinal fuel molding with longitudinal channels passing through the molding and ports from each channel communicating with the respective passages in the cylinder heads. The molding is secured to the cylinder heads of the engine. The fuel molding allows simple pipe laying and a protected position for the pipes, and it also reduces the risk of leakage.
