1984 38 Flat Deck Fuel Tanks Question
I just purchased a 38 Flat Deck and am told that it has two 100 gallon tanks in it and that they were somehow connected via a transfer pump. What I am wanting to know is if there is a way to connect both tanks so they both fill evenly from one side or the other and if you can connect them via a manifold to use both tanks for both engines. I tried searching the forums but could not find the answer. Any help would be great.

Wow very interesting . I always thought that the total fuel capacity of the 38 footers was 150 gallons total .
My tanks have never really been empty and don't remember ever putting that much fuel in . I guess you learn some thing new every day .

Thanks for all the help. What I was wanting to do is make sure they both empty evenly and also be able to fill them both from one side of the boat or the other. I can fab a manifold to make them both drain to both engines and also be able to separate them if needed. I was just trying to come up with a good way to fill them both from either side of the boat.
