What about a parallel system that could get to the remaining fuel?
One without giving up the simplicity of no fuel selector.
Stuart, one point in addition to the electrical system info that has
already been discussed. I plumbed my 320 with 3/8 tubing instead of the
1/4 called out in the manual. I also added a crossflow valve (very
simple to do). Now if I have a single pump failure, I can simply open
the crossflow. The 3/8 line provides less resistance to flow than the
1/4 so fuel from both tanks will gravity flow to the center section, and
EITHER pump can pump BOTH wing tanks. Simple, light and easy to install.
