Must have had a memory loss and can not decide.

What Andair fuel valve have you all been using (model)?

There will be no fuel return and another silly question....is it possible to run from both tanks with the Andair choice.

Thanks....Joe.

Not if you get the correct valve.

Running on "Both" is not recommended

If EITHER tank runs dry in a low wing airplane with the pump downstream of the fuel valve, the engine quits. Think of sucking on two straws at the same time, one in a glass of water, the other open to air.

Unless, of course, said low wing airplane has a header tank...yes, there are some...

Most of us use a Andair FS20X7T valve that Vans has.
