On the Corsair 36 there are two (2) fuel tanks, one port, one starboard, each with their own fuel fill. The
port fuel tank feeds the port engine and the starboard fuel tank feeds the starboard engine. Both fuel
tanks supply fuel to the generator in gasoline and diesel engine installations. The return lines when used
will route unburned fuel back to their respective fuel tanks as well.
There are manual fuel shutoff valves located on the top of the fuel tanks, one for each engine and one for
the generator.
