Silly gas tank question...
Got the two tanks on the truck. One in the cab and one in the rear. problem: I would have thought that the tank in the rear would be the "Main" tank and the tank in the cab the "aux" tank. Funny but the fuel tank switch actually calls the cab tank the "main."
Is my switch wired up wrong or am i just not with the program? Seems the rear tank was the more popular and should be the main. Anyway, really confused on that one.

I'm not sure on 76s but I have the manually operated valve where you can swap the hoses underneath the cab and make either tank the main. However, it doesn't really matter cuz my cab tank has been removed. I gotta beautiful filler neck that leads to no where right now.
As soon as I learn to TIG weld, I plan to fab up a small stainless steel aux tank...around five gallons or so. By Xmas, Santa (as I call my property management side job) should have enough dough for a Miller Diversion 165. I'm salivating just thinking about it!

The aft axle tank was an option when the In-Cab tank is present, so not all trucks have it.
