How do I plumb two tanks?
I have an Excelleron 50 that allows only an 8 oz tank behind the firewall. I'm using a OS .61 fsr and need at least 12 oz of fuel for each 10-15 minute flight.
I want to put one 8 oz tank behind the firewall and add a 4 oz tank in the fuse on the cg.
What's the correct way to hook them together?
Thanks,
Scott.

RE: How do I plumb two tanks?
Scott set the tanks up with a normal clunk in each one. Then run the pressure line from your muffler to the rear tank vent line. Then run the clunk line from the rear tank to the vent line of the front tank. Then run a line from the clunk line of the front tank to the carb. This should work fine. This has been done many times with external tanks to do cross country runs.
