Message The front tank holds about 1.1 gallons. Usable volume of about 3/4 gal because you don't want any risk of grabbing any water into the pump.

The problem with a gravity feed system is that the water flowing out of the rear tank will not be fast enough to supply the snow pump drawing out of the front tank.

You also have a problem of sealing the front filler neck when you siphon to the front. In order for the vent coming out of the front filler cap to work it would have to be higher than the tank you are drawing so fluid does not leak out the top. Routing a tube like that is next to impossible in the Z. Sealing up the front filler neck is extremely difficult without permanently altering the tank. That rear tank is pretty high, about level with the rear speaker.
