when you have tip tanks, you fly the auxes down, then pump in from the

fuel flow.


Comanche tip tanks don't use pumps. They can be used anytime while in
cruise (not for t/o or landing).


What tip tanks are we talking about? The Twin was available at some
point with factory tip tanks and a fuel selector that included them.
A single with tip tanks would be aftermarket from Brittain/Osborne.
