aux gas tank (use an outboard tank for an I/O)
 

I had a thought about using a 5 gallon outboard gas tank as an "emergency
reserve" for my 22' run about -- I thought about getting the fittings normally
on the engine & put them inline with the "tank" fuel line -- but not sure if
it'd eventually suck air thru it or when plugged in, the outboard tank would
drain into the main tank..

has anyone done something like this?

Not me, but don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. multiple tank
systems arn't uncommon on lots of boats especially pontoons. I would
think that all you would really need is a "main" and "AUX" valve.
