A fuel flow diverting system is provided for a diesel engine powered vehicle including an auxiliary power system driven from the engine of the vehicle when the latter is stationary and wherein the vehicle is provided with primary and secondary fuel tanks with fuel supply and return lines being provided for each tank. The fuel diverting system is operative when the auxiliary power system is not operating and the vehicle is being operated in an over-the-road mode, to draw engine fuel from and return excess engine fuel to the primary tank. The fuel diverting system is further operative, when the vehicle is stationary and the auxiliary power system drivable when the vehicle engine is actuated, to supply fuel to the engine from the auxiliary fuel tank only and to return fuel from the engine to the auxiliary fuel tank only.
