- Fuel draw starts on front tank
- Once front tank drops to 3/4 full it switches to rear tank
- Once rear tank drops to 1/4 full it switches back to front tank
Once my front tank drops below half full I usually start looking for a station to fill up. The single gauge is usually showing 1/4 full at that point.
I have never seen my rear tank drop to empty before it switched back to the front tank. I am assuming if the front tank hits 1/4, it would start drawing the rear tank again but I have not gotten to that point.
One thing I do know for certainty.... if you do run out of fuel, you have to put fuel in the front tank to restart the engine.

Yes 2020 F550 same as yours. One thing I usually do is as soon as the rear tank goes empty we start looking for a place to fill. One thing that I would never want to do is run out of fuel!! Thanks for the tip on filling front tank if we run out.
