Hey guys,

I'm waiting for my ACS high pressure gascolator #05-04248 to get delivered. I also ordered the assigned mounting kit, which in fact mounts the gascolator by its upstream 1/4" NPT fitting. I haven't had the gascolator in my hands yet but am pondering whether this will work in the long run. I'm doing what I can to prevent any possible fatigue cracks on the fuel lines, therefore mounting the redcube and fuel pressure sender all by steel / ptfe hoses and not solidly with tubing or stuff, and an a bit scared of the gascolator to fail.

Do you guys have experience with the gascolator and the mounting kit?

Thanks ahead,


Simon
