plumbing in my genset

[chas1450]

my genset was originally plumbed into an aux fuel tank in the rear of our F 40, we took out the tank,( leaking) so now we have to replumb, so if I USE 2 CHECK VALVES can I tee off my fuel lines going to either engine, they are diesels, 671DD, the genset is a 13kw onan with a aux fuel pump, thank you in advance

Each engine should have its own pick up . sometimes sharing a pick can cause issues .

I would think each has to have its own fuel line. If both were on the same line and both running at the same time, I think one would not get enough fuel.

good Luck

and if one is not runing the running one could suck air .

from what I understand the boats that share a fuel tank with the genset have a seperate pick up at, or above the 1/4 level to prevent running out of fuel on the genny. I guess this also stops the sucking air and fuel starvation issues. Might just be easier to buy a new tank.
