I'm tying up loose ends on my Roo II, and need a little info on the plumbing side.

I'm using one of Gary's 105 oz. kevlar tanks for fuel, and have stuffed in two 24 oz. rectangular Sullivan tanks in there for smoke oil (one on each side of the main tank). When I plumb the two smoke tanks together, do I have to center the Tees for supply and vent between the tanks (See Sketch 1)? Or can they be offset (See Sketch 2)?

Thanks in advance,
Mark

I was always told to center them cause they don't draw evenly if you don't. I've never seen an installation that they weren't even to the t's.

If you think about it, the flow will always go to path of least resistance. If a line is shorter, that's less resistance. So makes sense to me

If the feed lines are not equal then you will drain one tank first.

What not just plumb them in series?
