ABSTRACT:
A cylindrical housing including a float-type valve is latch-engaged in an installation wall in a fuel tank. The cylindrical housing has an annular groove on its entire outer circumference, while the installation wall has a plurality of resilient tongues each of which has an inwardly protruding convex. With the latch-engagement between the resilient tongues and the annular groove being provided radially outside the housing, the float-type valve is enabled to move in the cylindrical housing without interruption by the resilient tongues. A turn preventing mechanism is provided between the cylindrical housing and the installation wall at the upper parts thereof located outside the fuel tank.
