Abstract
A fuel tank having two tank spaces spaced from one another and connected to one another at a distance above their bottom. One tank space is equipped at its bottom with a retaining vessel having a closed shell. To assure that both tank spaces are reliably emptied, each tank space is equipped with a jet pump charged with fuel via a supply line. Both of the jet pumps, which are parallel or series connected to each other, deliver fuel to the retaining vessel.
