The OB primer bulb is a great way to find a suction side fuel problem - I'll have to add one to the tool box!

Everyone I have known who has remote mounted racor vaccum gauges with non-hydraulic type hose/fittings has had a leak at one time or another. It's also a good idea to use a ball valve at the filter for the gague/line to be able to shut off the line if a leak develops or gauge is damaged.
