The present subject matter relates to systems and methods for coupling a fuel tank assembly to a combustion engine in which a cover configured for covering at least a portion of the combustion engine can include a recess configured for receiving a fuel tank therein. The recess can include a receptacle positioned against an inner wall of the cover and configured for receiving a protruding ear of the fuel tank, a first protruding tab extending from the inner wall of the cover at or near the receptacle, and a latch strike extending from the inner wall of the cover at or near the receptacle. A retaining clip with a first retaining portion and a latch arm can be positioned in a blocking position with respect to the receptacle to prevent the protruding ear of the fuel tank from being removed from the receptacle.

1. A fuel tank assembly system comprising: a fuel tank comprising at least one protruding ear;a cover configured for covering at least a portion of a combustion engine, the cover comprising a recess configured for receiving the fuel tank therein, wherein the recess comprises: a receptacle positioned against an inner wall of the cover and configured for receiving the protruding ear;a first protruding tab extending from the inner wall of the cover at or near the receptacle; anda latch strike extending from the inner wall of the cover at or near the receptacle; anda retaining clip comprising a first retaining portion and a latch arm, wherein the first retaining portion is configured for engagement with the first protruding tab to secure the protruding ear of the fuel tank in the receptacle, and wherein the latch arm is configured for engaging the latch strike to prevent movement of the retaining clip relative to the receptacle. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the fuel tank comprises a fill neck; and wherein the cover comprises an opening through the cover configured for receiving the fill neck therethrough. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the receptacle comprises a plurality of walls extending from the inner wall of the cover. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein the receptacle comprises first and second side walls and an end wall. 5. The system of claim 4, wherein the first retaining portion is configured to extend across an open end of the receptacle between the first and second side walls. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the cover comprises a second protruding tab positioned at or near the receptacle; and wherein the retaining clip comprises a second retaining portion configured for engagement with the second protruding tab to secure the protruding ear of the fuel tank in the receptacle. 7. A method for attaching a fuel tank assembly, the method comprising: providing a cover configured for covering at least a portion of a combustion engine, the cover comprising a recess configured for receiving a fuel tank therein, a receptacle positioned within the recess against an inner wall of the cover, a first protruding tab extending from the inner wall of the cover at or near the receptacle, and a latch strike extending from the inner wall of the cover at or near the receptacle;sliding a fuel tank into position with respect to surrounding components in a non-twisting motion by positioning at least a portion of the fuel tank within the recess, the fuel tank comprising a protruding ear configured for positioning in the receptacle; andsecuring the fuel tank in the position with respect to the surrounding components by positioning a retaining clip having a first retaining portion and a latch arm in a blocking position with respect to the receptacle, wherein the first retaining portion is positioned in engagement with the first protruding tab to secure the protruding ear of the fuel tank in the receptacle, and wherein the latch arm is configured for engaging the latch strike to prevent movement of the retaining clip relative to the receptacle, whereby the retaining clip prevents the protruding ear of the fuel tank from being removed from the receptacle. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein positioning the fuel tank within the recess comprises moving the protruding ear into the receptacle through an open end of the receptacle; and wherein securing the fuel tank in place comprises blocking the open end. 9. The method of claim 7, wherein the fuel tank comprises a fill neck, and the cover comprises an opening through the cover; and wherein positioning the fuel tank within the recess comprises positioning the fill neck through the opening. 10. The method of claim 7, wherein positioning the fuel tank within the recess comprises moving the protruding ear in a substantially linear first direction into the receptacle. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein positioning the retaining clip in a blocking position with respect to the receptacle comprises moving the retaining clip in a substantially linear second direction. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the second direction is substantially perpendicular to the first direction. 13. The method of claim 7, wherein positioning the retaining clip in a blocking position with respect to the receptacle comprises positioning the retaining portion between the first protruding tab and the receptacle. 14. The method of claim 7, wherein the cover comprises a second protruding tab positioned at or near the receptacle, and the retaining clip comprises a second retaining portion; and wherein positioning the retaining clip in a blocking position with respect to the receptacle comprises positioning the second retaining portion in engagement with the second protruding tab.
