摘要

The saddle tank for use as a vehicle fuel tank has a fuel pump (8) in the first section (2) and a ventilating valve (17) in the second (3). A compensating line (10) connects the two sections of the tank, but only allows balancing of the levels when the level in the second section is below that in the first.
