ABSTRACT:
A fuel feed apparatus feeds fuel in a fuel tank to the outside of the fuel tank. The fuel feed apparatus includes a flange that covers an accommodation hole of the fuel tank, a fuel pump that pumps fuel, and a sub-tank accommodating the fuel pump. The sub-tank is capable of reciprocating relative to the flange in the axial direction of struts, which support the flange. The struts are positioned circumferentially outwardly to the sub-tank. The sub-tank has a lid70. Holding portions are provided on the lid to axially movably hold the struts. Thus, an assembling work of the fuel feed apparatus can be eased without damaging internal components, when the struts are assembled.
