Q

During crossed feed operations how does the low fuel tank get fuel from the hight side?

A

When the crossfeed knob is selected to LOW 1 or LOW 2, the amount of fuel supplied to the lower level side is higher than the actual fuel burn of the engine on that side. This characteristic causes fuel to be transferred from one tank to the other.
