Hi Kelly, I think that is the optimum system but did not want to buy the
expensive Andair dual valve :>)
I think the air line hump is not a problem in a return to tank FI system
because it will any air will immediately be blown back to the tank and vented.
This of course would not clear a non return system such as a carb engine has and
it would need to be replumed or have the small orifice fix.

Bernie,
Not Mark but will give it a try........Mark has a dual
level fuel valve which
determines which tank that fuel is drawn from and returned to.........If
I have
understood your question correctly !!
