A. Tanks (Ref. 28-11-00)
The aircraft has three fuel tanks and two vent surge tanks. The vent surge tanks are temporary tanks for fuel that can get into the tank venting system. The tanks are as follows:
The aircraft has a maximum of five fuel tanks and has two vent surge tanks. The vent surge tanks temporarily hold fuel that gets into the tank venting system. The tanks are as follows:

The aircraft has a maximum of five fuel tanks and has two vent surge tanks. The vent surge tanks temporarily hold fuel that gets into the tank venting system. The tanks are as follows:
- the LH and RH surge tanks in the wings
- the LH and RH wing tank in the wings
- the center tank in the center wing
- the ACT/s (when installed).
- a LH and RH surge tank in the wings
- a LH and RH wing tank in the wings
- a center tank in the center wing.
B. Tank Venting System (Ref. 28-12-00)
The tank venting system makes sure the air pressure in the fuel tanks (and the surge tanks) keeps near to the ambient air pressure. This prevents a large difference between these pressures, which can cause damage to the fuel tank/aircraft structure. If a fuel tank overflows during a refuel or a fuel transfer, the tank venting system can contain this fuel. If the fuel flow is more than it can contain, the tank venting system lets this fuel go overboard.

If the fuel flow is more than it can contain, the tank venting system lets this fuel go overboard.
The ACT venting system connects the ACT/s (if installed) to the center tank. Fuel or fuel gas in the ACT venting system pipework is released into the center tank.
When the fuel transfer system operates, the vent valves automatically close to isolate the ACT(s) from the center tank. Air from the cabin pressure control system pressurizes the ACT(s) for fuel transfer.

D. Center Wing/Tank External Venting-System (Ref. 28-13-00)
The fuel or the fuel gas that comes out of the center tank is externally vented to make sure that it does not go into the aircraft structure.

E. Intercell Transfer System (Ref. 28-15-00)
The intercell transfer system controls the movement of fuel from the wing tank outer cell to the wing tank inner cell.
The intercell transfer system has two valves in each of the wing tanks that open and close to control the movement of the fuel. The valve position is automatically controlled by the Fuel Level Sensing Control Unit (FLSCU) (Ref. AMM D/O 28-46-00-00).

F. Fuel Recirculation For Cooling (Recirculation System) (Ref. 28-16-00)
Some of the fuel supplied to the engine is used to cool the engine oil and the Integrated Drive Generator (IDG). The recirculation system connects the hot fuel output from the engine to the wing tanks.
