This is the 18 Gall Auxhilary petrol tank , Preasurised by either the hand air pump ,or the propellor driven mechanical air pump (compressor).Appx 2.5 Lbs per sq in .
This delivers to the 7Gall Gravity feed Service tank under the top centre plane , and is usually replenished by the larger 36 Gall Main tank located under the motor, which is also preasurised by same means .
The air selectors determin which tanks recieve air , and petrol selectors direct the flow ...See previous description of fuel system...Also see my description on "Replica Safty" thread ......JM

John,

I think you should give 2 or 3 day metal bashing masterclasses. Count me in on the first course!

Regards, Pete
