As I've mentioned before, the return from my EFI/Accumulator is into the
drain on the Aux tank. That has, to me, a major advantage: Unless I've
got that tank's independent pump selected, I KNOW there's fuel in it up to
the between-tanks pipe. With Aux selected, I can run the system "dry" down
to the pickup tube in the Aux, because any gas the TB doesn't accept, goes
right back to that tank.
