In my T3 I am running parallel, with an "RV" fuel switch between the two tanks. This spring when I make the aux tank for my LT it will be in series, with one tank gravity feeding into the other tank. This is hard to do on the T3 Syncro as there is no place where a 2nd tank can be put that would allow a gravity feed to happen. Personally I would never use a pump to go from one tank to another as if you turned on the pump and the other tank was as empty as the aux tank is full it could lead to an expensive mess!
