![]() Well, no is the short answer as my car is still in the early stages of being built!
Initially I had considered just a secondary tank, with a tap. I.e. main tank goes low, pull over, flick the tap and let the secondary tank empty into the main one, hey presto - more range. Thinking it through - there are plenty of pitfalls - i'm mainly thinking that if I get the tank sizes/heights wrong gravity will cause overflows if it isn't carefully thought through, but this will limit the size of the secondary tank, negating it's effectiveness..... Mainly I am thinking that when it's built and I cruise down to the French Riviera in it I won't want to stop every 150 miles. Perhaps i'll have a different opinion once i've driven one!!

![]() Jag long range option had pumps and switches you couks switch between or for balancing tanks
You could run top and bottom balance pipes with tap on the bottom for filling, close when both full Then seperate fuel pumps to a swirl pot that way you can switch tanks on the fly |
