Re: Unknown facts regarding replacement 1st gen. Vortec MP fuel systems

Yes, I have pinched the return line to reduce it's size temporarily until I can get a shutoff valve inline. The size is not a common hardware store item and I did not want one of those 1/4 or 1/2 turn ball valves. They would be too hard to dial in the correct pressure.

The one thing that concerns me with the gate valve I did find is if the packing will stand up to fuel and ethanol.
