    O/B electric fuel pump

    Has any manufacturer ever built an o/b with an electric fuel pump?<br />OR....<br /><br />Since we can't start the bigger ones without power anyway, why not? It seems they rarely fail on cars or other equipment. While there seems to be quite a few failures on outboards.
