Default Fuel tank dual pickups


Should not be a problem IMO. Probably a 2nd pickup for a dual engine

setup.


Or could be a 2nd pickup intended for a genset. If designed specifically
for a genset, you might not be able to draw as much fuel out of the tank as
with the other pickup. Often, fuel pickups designed for genset use will
terminate higher in the tank than pickups for the propulsion engine(s).
This is to prevent you from running your tank dry running the genset. I
suppose someone has done it before. The genset will run out of fuel due to
the higher pickup and will allow a reserve of get-home fuel.
