Abstract
A fuel supply mechanism for a gas combustion engine has a tank filled with a gas fuel, a fuel injector having a fuel injection valve mounted on the gas combustion engine, a pipe for supplying the gas fuel from the tank to the fuel injector, a gas fuel cutoff valve in the pipe for cutting off the gas fuel flowing through the pipe, a gas fuel state detector for detecting a state of the gas fuel, and a control unit responsive to a detected signal from the gas fuel state detector for controlling the gas fuel cutoff valve and the fuel injection valve.
