My
question is, if I plumb the transfer line (one tank to the other) into the
fuel return line (coming from the engine) will the facet fuel pump have
enough pressure to over come the returning fuel? Is the returning fuel
under any pressure at all or just flowing back to the tank? I do know I
will have to have a check valve to prevent fuel returning to the wrong tank.
Thanks in advance.
I Tee-ed my fuel return and transfer lines together and have just one return/transfer line to the supply tank as you describe and it's been working well for my first 30 hours of flight. As you stated you will need the check valve inline with the facet pump, my first tests were without one and I was getting some fuel getting past the facet pump and flowing to the transfer tank.
