They are NOT approved for any fuel if used inside an enclosed engine room. I have installed them for a few people. I would NEVER do it for gasoline, but diesel is safer. I have had them spring a leak too :(

If it is for an outboard, I'm afraid it isn't.

It makes it easy to purge the system of air as well as filling the fuel filter after a change. It cost around $10 and has been in for 7 years with no issues. In fact, when the pick up tube in the tank clogged I quickly diagnosed the problem by noting the bulb was flat.

It will be permanently installed in the fuel line after the Racor filter and will only be energized when priming. Has anyone a recommendation? I have prices all over the map ranging from $35 to $275.
