FUEL SYSTEM

The fuel system is an OFF-ON-CROSSFEED arrangement.
The fuel selector panel, located on the floor forward of the front
seats, contains the fuel selector for each engine and a sche-
matic diagram of fuel flow.
Position selectors in detents only. There is
no fuel flow to the engines between
detents, indicated by red arcs. Visually con-
firm fuel selector position.

FUEL CELLS

The standard wing fuel system has a total capacity of 200 gal-
lons with the wet wing tip tanks installed. An optional 172 total
capacity system is available without the wet wing tip tanks. The
fuel placard adjacent to each filler cap indicates fuel capacity
and usable fuel when that wing fuel system is full. Refer to
Section 2, LIMITATIONS for usable fuel in each system.
A vapor return line returns excess fuel from the engine to its
respective wing system. All of the fuel cells, standard or
optional, in each wing are interconnected in order to make all
the usable fuel in each wing available to its engine when the
fuel selector valve is turned to ON. The optional 172 gallon fuel
system is filled through a single filler located in each wing. Wet
wing tip tanks have two additional filler caps, one per wing.
Refer to Section 8, HANDLING, SERVICING & MAINTE-
NANCE for additional information.
When the wet wing tip tanks are filled with
fuel, DO NOT OPEN the inboard wing lead-
ing edge filler caps, as fuel will exit from
respective filler port.
