Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A fuel delivery system for a vehicle saddle fuel tank 24 comprises a main fuel pump 36, a jet pump 42, a diverter 40, and a cross-over tube 44. The main pump 36 has an outlet 38 connected to the diverter 40, the diverter 40 being provided with a first outlet 48 for supplying a vehicle engine and a second outlet 50 connected to the jet pump 42. The pumps 36, 42 are typically located in an active side 30 of a saddle fuel tank 24, so that the jet pump 42 can draw fuel from a passive side 32 of the tank 24 via the cross-over tube 44 to the active side 30 of the tank 24, the jet pump 42 comprising an internal nozzle (78, figure 2). The diverter 40 may be a parallel pressure relief valve. The diverter 40 may be T-shaped or integral with the jet pump 42.
