What if I returned all the fuel to the smaller non inverted tank and =20
burned from that one first. When empty I could switch to the main 20 =20
gallon tank with the return still going to the smaller tank. If needed =20=

I could always return to the smaller tank for the returned fuel from =20
the main. Does this sound to easy to be true?
Thanks,
Randy
