ABSTRACT:
A fuel tank has a fuel-vapor discharge structure in which the piping connecting to external equipment is not obtrusive. The fuel-vapor discharge structure allows the passage of fuel vapor between an upper space in the fuel tank and an induction system. The communication passage can be formed by a communication tube arranged vertically within the interior of the fuel tank and a connecting tube located outside the fuel tank. A lower portion of the fuel tank includes a one-way valve which allows fuel vapor to flow from the fuel tank to the induction system.
