ABSTRACT An overflow return tank is disclosed, especially for receiving return fuel in internal combustion engines with a fuel gauge. A receptable has an inlet located at the top for return flow and an outlet and an air bleed hole. A float is located within the receptacle for controlling a valve located at the outlet of the receptacle. The valve comprises a soft, elastic diaphragm, which is connected to the float and upon lifting of the float gradually exposes the outlet by being bent, so that fuel can be taken out from the overflow return tank. Owing to the design of the valve only a small lifting force from the float is required, whereby the fuel amount in the overflow return tank can be maintained substantially constant even with great variations in the return flow. The overflow return tank, besides, can be given small dimensions. The overflow return tank further is provided with a member to separate gas bubbles from the incoming return flow before the fuel again is discharged from the overflow return tank. Said member may be a pipe of fabric, through the walls of which the return flow can pass.
