Abstract

In a fuel supply device for an engine, a clip is fitted in two grooves formed in a fuel injector through its pawls parallel with each other, and fitted with a convex portion formed on a fuel delivery pipe through its window portion. The clip is prevented from slipping out of the injector in an axial direction and the fuel delivery pipe. Even if a wire harness tends to slip out of an electric connector, a sealing member is stopped at a stopper plate of the clip to thereby prevent the wire harness from slipping out.
