Abstract
In a fuel system for an internal combustion engine powering a motor vehicle, a fuel reservoir canister mounted in a main fuel tank. An annular fuel filter element is enclosed in an axially elongate housing with radially spaced apart inner and outer cylindrical side walls. The housing is received in the canister with its outer side wall bearing on and radially supported by a complementary side wall of the canister. Preferably, a fuel pump and pressure regulator are disposed in the canister preferably so they overlap with and are encircled by the filter housing. The high pressure outlet of the fuel pump is connected to the filter to supply filtered fuel to the engine at a pressure regulated and controlled by the pressure regulator.
