I guess I don't understand your system. Why would it require two
independent polishing systems? Even with a single set of filters (GCF
fillowed by Racor) you can use valves and piping to plumb the thing any
way you want.

That may be true, and as long as it stays there the engine still
runs fine. If it does get shaken up, the a polishing system will
do its job while lessing the crud going through the engine filtering
system. Once initial polishing is done, I will be alternating between
tanks. One running while the other polishing. Getting things shaken
up is the best thing I can hope for.


Why not just always leave the polishing system in-line? Allow for a
bypass to change a filter or if it develops a vacuum leak, but other
then that, there's nothing wrong with always using "just polished" fuel.
