Zusammenfassung:A device (7) to deliver fuel from a tank to an IC engine is installed in a floating body (9) in the tank, and carries an integral fuel filter (11). Even in the minimum state-of-fill of the fuel, it can still flow into the device. The floating body has a pivoted arm (29), the other end of the arm also being pivoted and connected to a potentiometer to indicate fuel level by change of resistance. There is an elastic hose (17) connecting the device to the fuel pipe (19) where it joins the tank. Its length is such that it does not impair the movement of the device between maximum and minimum states of fill. There are cables (27) for the electric pump.
