Abstract: A generator capable of suppressing leakage of a liquid fuel includes a fuel tank that stores the liquid fuel. The fuel tank has a fuel inlet, a tank bulge portion that has the fuel inlet and that bulges to a position higher than the fuel inlet, and a breather path formed of a pipe member communicating between an inside and an outside of the fuel tank. The tank bulge portion is provided with an isolated body forming an isolated space that is isolated from an internal space of the fuel tank. An end part on one side of the pipe member is accommodated inside the isolated body.

The fuel tank has a fuel inlet and a breather path formed of a pipe member communicating between an inside and an outside of the fuel tank. An isolated body forms an isolated space that is isolated from an internal space of the fuel tank is provided inside the fuel tank. The isolated body is provided with a breather room and a chamber room that are formed by partitioning the isolated space by a partition wall. A ventilation hole allows the internal space and the chamber room to communicate with each other. An inflow hole allows the breather room and the chamber room to communicate with each other. An end part on one side of the pipe member is disposed inside the breather room.
