Paul,

  You comented on a recent post about Tracy's fuel pumps, to be sure to
return the fuel to the proper tank, I intend to install an Andair duplex
fuel valve, that would divert the return fuel automatically to the tank it
was drawn from. What I would like to know is how big of fuel lines do I
need to run from the tanks in, and then consequently, do I need the same
size lines returning, or could I downsize them one?
Like a 1/2 feed and 3/8 return. Or could I flow enough with 3/8 - 3/8?
Will be on a NA Renesis in an RV7. Thanks.

Excellent. Andair makes a very nice product. Well worth the cost.
I would run the same size or you risk affecting the performance
of the fuel pressure regulator. Heck run 1/2 inch everywhere. Won't
hurt. Here are some pictures I took awhile ago on the Andair.
