A fuel delivery system (10) used on marine vessels (B) has a fuel injected, internal combustion engine (E) for propulsion. A fuel tank (T) stores fuel (F) supplied to run the engine through a supply line (L) extending between the fuel tank and the engine. The tank has a relatively small (1.6 in. diameter) opening (O), and a fuel pump (12) is sized to fit within the fuel tank through this opening. The fuel pump pumps fuel, under pressure, from the fuel tank to the engine. A fuel filter (20) is also sized to fit within the tank and is connected to an inlet (14) of the fuel pump. Fuel is drawn into the fuel pump through the fuel filter. A pressure regulator (30) regulates the pressure of fuel pumped to the engine. The pressure regulator is mounted externally of the tank and the fuel pump is tethered to the pressure regulator for the fuel pump and fuel filter to be installed in the fuel tank without use of external supporting structure.
