The present disclosure relates to a saddle tank for motor vehicles, having two chambers connected to one another in their upper region via a central portion having a reduced cross-section, wherein the first chamber has an access opening for refueling and wherein a fill level-limiting valve is arranged in the second chamber. In order to prevent unwanted swash-over of fuel from the first chamber into the second chamber, provision is made according to the invention for there to be arranged, between the two chambers, a separating body which has a separating wall, which extends over the entire width of the central portion between an upper and a lower wall portion, and a pipe which extends from an opening in the separating wall into the first chamber and allows fluid communication between the first and the second chamber.
