Yes, the valve has six ports, the returns switch too. There is, however, a slight lag- meaning, the fuel in the return line already will go to the tank you just switched to. This matters a bit if you're running different fuels in each tank, otherwise, not so much.

thanks!;Sweet that makes it easy for me imo because i run diesel in the rear tank and bio in the front right now and i wana switch it to wvo on the front and didnt want my rear getting too contaminated or vise versa but i can settle for a little wvo in my diesel and a little diesel in my wvo;Sweet

A lot of folks do just that, I was gonna, and bought a Pollack valve, but after some operation with the front-WVO and rear-dino I realized that the cross-contamination to the front was fairly minor. Now the Pollack is going to replace the OEM valve and live in the engine bay, that is, when I have time to play with the WVO stuff, been too busy with other truck issues.
