I just bought a [unidentified model year] 270 VANTAGE. One fuel tank will feed two (Mercury brand) engines.
Q1: on [an unidentified model year] 270 VANTAGE is there a valve to switch [some unidentified fuel load] from one tank to the other?
Q2: will [an unidentified gauge] at the navigation station show [unidentified data about] the one engine receiving fuel?
Q3: when should I [operate an unidentified valve in order to] switch [something] to the other tank?

[Unidentified Model Year] 270 VANTAGE Fuel System
Re: [Unidentified Model Year] 270 VANTAGE Fuel System
Fred—you need to identify the model year of your 270 VANTAGE.
You should be able to find information about the fuel system in the owner’s manual for your unidentified model year 270 VANTAGE.
If your unidentified model year 270 VANTAGE was made in the last ten years, you should be able to get information and assistance from Boston Whaler customer support via telephone or email.
If you purchased the boat new, contact the dealer from whom you purchased this boat. The dealer can help you learn the details of the fuel system.
Also, when seeking information from readers, you need be more specific with the details of the uncertainties you are asking about.
Explaining complex systems in a narrative description may cause readers to become confused. Using a well done schematic diagram of the system is a better way to convey information to readers.
Typically a 270 VANTAGE has only one fuel tank. If rigged for twin engines, each engine would have its own separate and independent fuel feed from the single fuel tank. There would not be a fuel flow manifold with multiple valves to reroute fuel flow sources and engine feeds.
