I had a thought about using a 5 gallon outboard gas tank as an "emergency
reserve" for my 22' run about -- I thought about getting the fittings normally on the engine & put them inline with the "tank" fuel line -- but not sure if it'd eventually suck air thru it or when plugged in, the outboard tank would drain into the main tank.. has anyone done something like this? -j |

I would think that all you would really need is a "main" and "AUX" valve. |
