    fuel manifolding on OA 423 Clkassico

    Just to put this thread to bed, I was able to contact a OA dealer in Seattle who told me the set up is used even on the larger OA's and OA has no problem with the fuel backing up the fuel fill on the belly tanks. He said the setup is supposed to have all the manifold valves open unless a...

    fuel manifolding on OA 423 Clkassico

However, the narrative in the same manual does not descibe the system correctly.I have checked with an owner whose is a 1995 year and he has a return to the belly tank. Mine is a 2001 and only...

    fuel manifolding on OA 423 Clkassico

    I think you're right. Other than drilling a return the belly tank, the rest will be valving. Don't see the need to manifold returns as it will either go to saddles or belly. Thanks for all your insight.

    fuel manifolding on OA 423 Clkassico

    fuel manifolding on OA 423 Clkassico

    concerned about manifolding on OA 423 classic. Have 3 tanks, one is belly other two are saddle. The manifold only allows return to saddle tanks. the saddle tanks are higher than belly, so gravity will fill (maybe overfill) the belly tank if full. Do you have to use saddle tanks dow to a certain...
