Gas Tanks
 
There are 2 gas tanks in the Bullet. Does each engine run off of there own dedicated tank or is there some common line that feeds both engines. I was just woundering because one of my tanks was so much fuller than the other.
Thanks

In mine, one tank feeds each engine. No crossover.

My '94 Bullet has each tank feeding an engine and there is a crossover valve on each tank.

How about the fuel pump switchs on the dash. I have 2 of them. Does it matter if they are on or off. I have been running with them in the off position and it runs fine? Just wondering what would happen if I run with them in the on position??

You probably have mechanical fuel pumps, so the switches are just for looks.

Donīt you have the electric "diesel pumps" in a Bullet ?
In my Top Gun the electric pumps kicks in if the fuelpressure gets to low and the mechanical pumps canīt keep up.
Show me a picture of the forward part of your engineroom and I will tell you if you have the electrical pumps.

Mine has been converted over to just electric pumps only.
