Patent abstract
In a fuel supply apparatus, a fuel pump draws fuel from a fuel tank, and discharges the fuel to a high-pressure fuel system. A filter unit has a filter element located on a downstream side of the fuel pump to remove foreign matters contained in the fuel discharged from the fuel pump. A jet pump has a nozzle that is installed in a fuel supply passage between the fuel pump and the filter element. The nozzle injects the fuel to a downstream side of the nozzle in the fuel supply passage. The introducing passage introduces excessive fuel from the high-pressure fuel system to the downstream side of the nozzle.
