    The furtherest I went was 380km without hitting reserve with both taps open...it was a bit of a worry so fueled up asap. It took 18 litres,and it took 19 from dry ( could've done with an expansion job). I had worked out somewhere around 400km to a tank,but never pushed it that far.

    I see what you mean. I thought turning one off would make it drain lopsided, so have both on. I might try it out, left or right off, then turn it on.
