maybe he is thinking that as one tank siphons into the next, then you are in
fact drawing from two tanks at the same time
which i guess if you are being pedantic is correct. Other than that i dont
see either how it is possible to draw from more than one tank
at a time with the standard fuel selector. Does the andair selector have a
"BOTH" position?? (I think it does) i which case then it would be
possible

I am a bit confused by your comment "the fuel pump must not draw fuel
---From more than one tank at a time, which the standard Europa tank
plumbing doesn't meet".

The Europa 912XS 912S Engine Manual, Issue 6 page 6-3 and 914 Engine
Manual issue 4 Page 5-3 both give layouts with the fuel fed from the
selector valve.  This only allows feed from one tank at a time.
