Fuel Boost Pump / Fuel Transfer Pump: Description and Operation

JET PUMP




- The jet pump utilizes the velocity of fuel returning from the engine to produce vacuum in it.
- Using the pumping effect produced by the vacuum, the jet pump transfers fuel from the sub-compartment to the main compartment of the fuel tank.
- When the return line nozzle is clogged, the fuel sent back through the return line flows back into the fuel tank via the relief valve.
