tee the tanks to the on/off valve, thus drawing fuel from both tanks...would
this make a difference?

If one tank inlet becomes uncovered for what ever reason the pump will
draw air and the engine will quit.

This is a schematic of a low wing system that is safe.

Green is the feed line. Red is the return fuel.
Each pump has a one way valve built in.
One pump is used as the main pump and the other as the backup.
The fuel pressure regulator is on the end of the fuel rail.

Fuel systems seem simple but many people have crashed by not getting it right.

ANY deviation from this system and you take your life in your hands.

My system is exactly like the one on your schematic.
