Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008074544A1] The invention relates to a fuel system for an internal combustion engine, wherein in an operating state the fuel is pumped into a fuel line by means of at least one pump unit. The pump unit is switched on in the idle state of the fuel system as a function of at least one state variable (p<SUB>K</SUB>,T). It is proposed that the pump unit is switched on in the idle state of the fuel system if a state variable (p<SUB>K</SUB>, T), which characterizes at least indirectly a state of the fuel present in the fuel line, is below a threshold value (p<SUB>U</SUB>, p<SUB>D</SUB>, G<SUB>1</SUB>).
