Abstract
The invention concerns a fuel tank (1) for a motor vehicle comprising a filler connection (2) enclosing a tank refueling passage (11) and operational and tank refueling venting conduits (3, 4) which are connected to a filler head (6) of the filler connection (2), wherein the filler head (6) has at least one change-over switching valve (9) which in a first switching position (tank refueling position) opens a flow path from the tank refueling venting conduit (3) to a fuel vapor filter and closes a connection of the operational venting conduit (4) to the tank refueling passage (11), and which in a second switching position (operational position) opens the connection of the operational venting conduit (4) to the tank refueling passage (11) and closes the flow path from the tank refueling venting conduit (3) to the fuel vapor filter. The fuel tank according to the invention is distinguished in that the operational venting means is connected to the fuel vapor filter primarily by way of the change-over switching valve (9), wherein the change-over switching valve opens the flow path from the operational venting conduit (4) to the fuel vapor filter in the second switching position and closes same in the first switching position (FIG. 1).
