Abstract
A fuel supply system includes a feed pump pumping up fuel in a fuel tank, a filter removing a foreign matter contained in the fuel discharged from the feed pump, and a high-pressure pump pressuring and discharging the fuel toward an internal combustion engine. A fuel pipe introducing the fuel from the filter to the high-pressure pump and a fuel pipe introducing the fuel from the filter to a housing of the high-pressure pump are formed independently of each other.
