Hi Guys
very interesting talk on the EGT probes. A side bar came up on=C2=A0fuel pr=
essure gauges with isolators.. I have the gauge, but isolators? What is thi=
s?=C2=A0I have a single braided line up through the tub from elec pump and =
filter in the rear to regulator and gauge under the bonnet, line then split=
s to the carbs.=C2=A0Education please.
