Re: WM Fuel Problems

This fuel thing is puzzeling. If you can fill the filter while cranking
the starter, but it doesn't fill when running then something spooky is
happening. The electric pump may be the way to go next. 
   Also, this may be a long shot, but; been there, done that, check that
the ignition circuits are working properly. Do you have a multimeter?
Check the voltages at the coil and see what you have a start-up and what
you have at run. There should be 12 volts to start and around 5 volts at
run. You may have a weak run voltage and the spark out of the coil isn't
enough to fire the engine properly. The starter fluid is easyer to
ignite.
   I can't help you with the dual tank question though. You have to wait
for Chris Procyk to wake-up.
