Abstract

The low profile vehicle has its fuel tanks positioned to straddle the exhaust pipes and the transmission, with the two lateral tanks connected by a large diameter pipe. The two tanks are fitted with collecting chambers formed by low depressions under each tank. The fuel intake pipe is positioned in one collecting chamber while a siphon tube (16) connects both collecting chambers, with the tube positioned inside the larger diameter connecting pipe. The other tank has the inlet of the siphon connected to the fuel return pipe (12) from the fuel injection system. The return fuel flow operates a venturi pump to transfer fuel to the other collecting chamber and ensure that the tanks are drained completely.
