Abstract
In a fuel tank for a motor vehicle, an intermediate tank is arranged for the intermediate storage of fuel fed via a plurality of suction jet pumps. The intermediate tank distributes the fuel to a plurality of baffles having feed units. One of the feed units is thereby prevented from running dry in the event of transverse accelerations of the fuel tank.
