ABSTRACT:
A fuel delivery system with at least one fuel tank and at least two fuel chambers has a fuel transfer assembly preferably integrated into an in-tank fuel pump module for controlling fuel levels between the at least two fuel chambers. The fuel transfer assembly has a transfer jet which receives pressurized fuel from a fuel pump of the module and at least two control valves for dictating the source of low pressure fuel flowing into the transfer jet and discharged therefrom preferably into a fuel reservoir of the module. Preferably, one control valve is located in each fuel chamber. The control valve opens upon a pre-established high fuel level and closes upon low fuel level. The fuel chamber containing the open control valve is generally the source of fuel for the fuel pump module.
