The present invention provides an assembly having a fuel injector and a fuel supply device. The fuel injector has first and second ends, a fuel metering portion, having a longitudinal axis extending therethrough, an outer shell surrounding the fuel metering portion, and at least one fixing member extending radially from the outer shell proximate the first end. The fixing member has first and second longitudinal legs extending to a first transverse leg, where all of the legs form a void. Each longitudinal leg has a first portion extending from the outer shell and a second portion that is substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis. The first transverse leg has a substantially planar surface. The fuel supply device has a cup with an injector receiving opening and at least one tab, extending generally radially from the cup. The first end of the fuel injector is disposed in the injector receiving opening. The at least one tab is adapted to releasably engage the fixing member and has a configuration that corresponds with the configuration of the void.
