Abstract:
A fuel system for an internal combustion engine is provided including a first fuel container for a first fuel, a second fuel container for a second fuel, a pump, and a first fuel injector, the fuel system being arranged to provide a communication between the first fuel container and the pump and between the pump and the first fuel injector, and a reservoir with a separation device adapted to divide the reservoir into a first volume and a second volume, whereby the separation device may be moved or flexed by a pressure difference in the first and second volumes so as to change the sizes of the first and second volumes, wherein the fuel system is arranged to provide a communication between the pump and the first volume, and to provide a communication between the second fuel container and the second volume and between the second volume and a second fuel injector.
