How about totally automated? A couple of open lines between the 2 tanks (on the upper level and lower level) so it's self-leveling......

To make it a bit more automated, but just as simple, the transfer pump
could kick in when the resistance on the fuel guage (assuming you have
a working guage), goes up/down to the quarter-tank resistance, and
back off when it goes to the three-quarter-tank resistance.
