FUEL SYSTEM MANAGEMENT:
Fuel is fed to the engine from the main (inboard) tanks and is controlled by the s
valve on the left kick panel. Auxiliary (outboard) tanks feed their respective main tanks
via transfer pumps that are controlled by switches on the instrument panel. These
transfer pumps transfer fuel at a rate of 0.4 gallons per minute or approx
nutes for a full auxiliary tank. Since overfilling a main tank from an auxiliary tank will
force excess fuel overboard, it is recommended that the transfer pumps not be act
vated until their respective main tanks are slightly more than one qu
tank being transferred to is feeding the engine, however, transfer can be initiated when
the main tank is down to approximately one half. Confirm fuel transfer by illumination
of the transfer pump switch, an increase in the respective
tor, and a decrease on the respective auxiliary tank indicator.
