Joe,
found a good solution.
There are a bunch of possible solutions, none of them perfect.
Is there any way to divide the fuel return so it can be
returned to both tanks?
The most common solution is probably a double throw valve. Bulent Alieve has
a source of fairly inexpensive ones. I installed a solenoid which sends the
return to the right tank when off, left when energized. I energize it with
the left tank fuel pump switch. This way I have independant fuel supplies,
pumps and filters. The solenoid weighs a couple of pounds. See details &
pictures in http://kgarden.com/cozy/chap21b.htm search for hydraulics.
One could pump fuel from the right tank to the
fuel rail and the other could transfer fuel from the left tank to the
right tank depending on the fuel flow being pumped from the right
tank?
I considered something similar, including the timed facet pump transfer
approach, but decided I wanted total redundancy in the fuel system.
Regards,
