Disclosed is a connector of a fuel pipe for vehicle, which can be easily mounted on or separated from a connector housing by adjusting a latch. The latch includes guide members oppositely located at a prescribed interval, push members vertically located away from the opposite sides of the guide members, and two pair waved resilient members disposed on the upper and lower portions of the guide members. Each guide member has a curved inner surface, a slant surface on the front portion for guiding an insertion of the pipe, a fixed jaw on the rear portion for retaining a bead formed on the peripheral surface of the pipe, and a guide groove formed in the center portion thereof. The two pair waved resilient members elastically connect the push members and the guide members to provide a powerful elastic force to the two pair waved resilient members, so that the guide members are extended outward when the push members are pressed. The connector housing has a guide rail combined with the guide grooves of the latch, thereby allowing the guide members to move back and forth. When the pipe is mounted in or separated from the connector, the guide members are extended outward in a perfect round shape, so that the pipe is easily mounted or detached and is prevented from a separation since the two pair waved resilient members elastically retain a bead of the pipe after mounting.
