I have lots of time in YAK-52s, no tank selector at all, just
a fuel ON/OFF switch. Works very well.

Must have some system to get around the problem. It has wing tanks?
Or dos it feed to the engine out of a header tank which is in turn fed
by the wing tanks?


Yes, two wing tanks and a header tank in the engine compartment.


And how does it shift fuel to the header? Elec pumps?
