A fuel tank assembly includes a primary fuel tank, a secondary fuel tank, a crossover tube, a fuel pump, a transfer tube, and a jet pump. The crossover tube is fluidly coupled with each of the primary fuel tank and the secondary fuel tank and defines a flow path for fuel to flow between the primary fuel tank and the secondary fuel. The fuel pump is disposed within the primary fuel tank and is configured to selectively supply fuel from the primary fuel tank to an engine. The transfer tube is routed internal to the crossover tube and is in fluid communication with each of the primary fuel tank and the secondary fuel tank. The jet pump is in fluid communication with the transfer tube and is configured to facilitate the flow of pressurized fuel from the secondary fuel tank, through the transfer tube, and into the primary fuel tank.
