Вопросы и ответы
How is the fuel transferred to the normal fuel tank?

The strut fuel tanks do not come with the drain already installed in the bottom of the tank. There is a place at the bottom of the tank that may be drilled out and a drain installed if the customer so wishes. The tanks are gravity fed and driven by the fuel pump, however, it is possible to augment that fuel pump with an electric fuel pump as well. But these tanks are designed and intended to be main tanks and not drained into a header tank, although it is possible to do so.
