Location: Hayward, WI | This is paraphrase from the Mercury Rigging Guide, other manu should be close.
1. Best method is to have seperate fuel pickups and lines for each motor.
2. Prefered is to have a 2 or 3 way valve to direct the fuel flow.
3. Acceptable to "t" the line before the primer bulb, so that each motor has its own primer bulb, check valve in primer bulb "should" prevent fuel siphon from other motor.
Another variation of this is to run 1 supply line to a canister style fuel filter, have 2 outlets, one for each motor, with each motor having its own primer bulb. This is the one that I prefer.
Chances of having an issue with a "t" is not great, but if it does happen you probably will not get any notice except for the main motor locking up from a lean conditon. |
