VP swears that U4.2 will not have the gumming issues that previous fuels have had (of course they used to say that about U4)

Our guys plumb in a T and run the middle leg to to a q.d. fitting.  When they're ready to pump out the fuel they snap in a line with to the q.d. fitting and let it pump to a container.  If you can't find what you need with your local dealer contact me and I can send you the parts that you need.
