Been working on Dads tractor. Not real familiar with it except for filter replacement, etc.

Had some fuel cutting out issues and am changing the fuel filters and air filters etc. I drained the fuel tank to see if any junk came out.. noticed there is a second smaller fuel tank that the main tank gravity flows into before the fuel then goes to filters and injectors...

Why the smaller tank??
 
It's there to collect fuel around the supply point for the injector pump so there is always liquid fuel supplied. No air when the level gets low, sloshing back and forth, or operating on a sloped ground.
