Abstract
A flow valve for a fuel supply system is arranged in a supply line leading to an internal combustion engine and, in a basic position upon the start of the internal combustion engine, closes a branch line which leads to a sucking-jet pump. For this purpose the flow valve has a closure member which is displaceable substantially transverse to the direction of flow by the flow of the fuel.
