ABSTRACT:
A fuel pressure regulator is disposed in a socket in a fuel rail and retained therein by means of a one-piece metal retention clip which has a flat forked blade portion that is inserted through a slot in the socket sidewall to span the socket in overlying relation to a flange extending around the outside of the cylindrical body of the pressure regulator so as to capture the pressure regulator in the socket and which also has a resilient body-clasping portion in the form of a pair of opposing spring fingers that are cantilevered on and spaced axially of the flat forked blade portion by means of a joining portion of the clip and that come to resiliently embrace the body of the pressure regulator as the forked blade portion comes to span the socket.
