hairygit:
As I said previously, they are BOTH the same, Inside the tap where it attaches to the tank there is a pipe, which supplies the main feed, once the level in the tank has fallen to the level of the pipe, you get the symptoms of running out of fuel, so when you put the tap to reserve position, it allows the remainder of the fuel to flow. The outlets of the tap are both the same, not a case of 1 for main and 1 for reserve, you need to connect both, but it makes no difference which goes to which, as they both supply fuel, except when the tap is OFF ;D

Ok makes sense now. Thanks.
