There are two electrical pumps for each inner wing tank. Also for each inner wing tank there is only one gravity feed.

Depending on the model, you can either have 2 center tank pumps or 2 jet pumps.

If there is a jet pump, what they do is transfer the fuel from the center tank to the inner wing tanks. If it's the older model they each go to an engine.
