What???? two tanks at once why? One would suck air when drained. I would think you could have three tanks but you would use them one at a time. The way I would do it is to use a blazer tank with a transfer pump to flow fuel in to an empty saddle tank and refill it. Another idea would be to look in a marine catalog as boat will sometimes have more than one tank and there is a manual valve availible to direct the fuel from which tank is being used. I had one on a boat I had years ago. That valve will only work with a single line supply if you are using fuel injection it won't work as you have no way to control the fuel return line.
