The right engine stops after the 350l are used up, no matter what. It is possible to fill up the left main tank, but it is not possible to get reserve-fuel into the right main tank. According to manuals I have seen, the red light from the reserve tanks should be switched on when the reserve tanks are empty.
If I remember this right, it was different befor the latest patch. I think the front switch was controling the usage of the main tanks.

This is exactly what I had concluded. Can't wait for the fix so we can get more than 45 minutes of fly-time in a 110.
Prior to the last patch both engines fed simultaneously off of whichever tank you had selected.
Not that it matters now but it used to work like this. (Obviously historically incorrect but much simpler)
