Hi all,
Looking for advice, suggestions, schematics on how to plumb a 2 tank setup for an RCR40. I am planning to run the tanks independently with no crossover and feeding a quartet of Webers which are plumbed in series. There is no provision for fuel return, so will be plugging those holes in the tank.
I am using 2 separate fuel pumps, each controlled by an individual switch with the idea that the two lines would come together in a T then on to the carb setup.
Here are some questions:
1. The Facet fuel pumps have a built in filter screen. Should I use an additional filter? If so, what size and where? Should this be between the tank and the pump, or downstream of the pumps where the two tank lines T together?
2. What one-way check valves should I use to prevent one tank from pumping fuel into the other? Where should these be located?
3. I'd like to use Aero-quip style braided lines with the red/blue AN fittings. What gauge should all this plumbing be?
Anything else I haven't thought of or a diagram of someone's similar system is much appreciated!
