Abstract
A fuel return device includes a fuel collector and a return system. The fuel collector is located in a passage between a fuel tank and a vapor fuel processing device that processes vapor fuel discharged from the fuel tank. The fuel collector collects the fuel and stores the collected fuel as a storage fuel. The return system extends from the fuel collector, and is connected to a low-pressure generation part that generates a low pressure by a flow of fuel refueled through a filler pipe into the fuel tank, to return the storage fuel to the fuel tank.
