One day, I'll look at the fuel gauge, which reads permanently empty.

Does it have a "reserve" setting on the tank? My Triumph Vitesse
(Herald) did, together with a manual priming lever on the fuel pump.


Don't think Travellers ever had them. Different shape tank to a
Vitesse,
too. I only remember seeing them on Heralds and Vitesses.


Don't think the tank shape matters. Just two pipes drawing from
different levels, and a changeover valve.


I thought the Triumph one was divided vertically, which was why I
mentioned it.
