So....
copper line from tank>ball valve>firomatic>TL-ultra>tee with vacuum gauge on one leg, braided hose on the other which goes to....>pump inlet>bypass outlet of pump>braided hose>TL
yes/no?
Thanks

Vac. Gauge Locations:
I don't use Tigerloop "Ultra's" with the filters as part of it. I only use separate filters.
I only use GarBer Spin-Ons which is now owned by General Filters. There is a 1/8" NPT plug on the top where the gauge goes. I don't care what the vacuum pressure is between the Tigerloop and the fuel pump, I want to know what the vacuum is through the filter and the fuel line. If I change the filter and the vacuum pressure doesn't go back up, the line is clogged.0
