f4u and 190 fuel leaks

When the damage indicator 'control + D' says that only one fuel is hit the damage still drains all remaining tanks reguardless of what is actually damaged.

Late model f4u's only have 1 internal tank, 190's burn aft fuel first and leave you with a forward tank

Do you check to make sure that you actually have other fuel tanks with fuel? If you have only one fuel tank left and it gets hit you will loose all your fuel.
