G. FUEL SYSTEM MANAGEMENT: (Cont'd)
These transfer pumps transfer fuel at a rate of 0.4 gallons per minute or approximately
45 minutes for a full auxiliary tank. Since overfilling a main tank from an auxiliary tank
will force excess fuel overboard, it is recommended that the transfer pumps not be acti-
vated until their respective main tanks are slightly more than one quarter full. If the tank
being transferred to is feeding the engine, however, transfer can be initiated when the
main tank is down to approximately one half. Confirm fuel transfer by illumination of the
transfer pump switch, an increase in the respective main tank fuel gauge indicator, and a
decrease on the respective auxiliary tank indicator.
