Hi this rather lethal idea has been tried before with some disastrous results as gasoline explodes. so look at some of the patterns that have been used in the past.

Old boat outboards did that so that they did not have to have a fuel pump. You won't save s*() other than not needing a fuel pump if you engineer it correctly.
