A fuel injector has a plurality of fuel injection ports including first injection ports and second injection ports. Injection-port axes of the first injection ports extend to a first space in a combustion chamber. Injection-port axes of the second injection ports extend to a second space in a combustion chamber. An interval of the injection-port axes between adjacent first injection ports is shorter than an interval of the injection-port axes between the first injection port and the second injection port which are adjacent to each other.
