Plumb it in direct and put a needle valve on it.

Just go direct.

It's only Diesel, not gasoline.

Many, many here have years and years on their guages without isolators.

Personally, in case of a leak, I'd rather smell Diesel than Glycol.

I was wary myself until I talked to Rod at Wildcat and he talked me out of the isolator.

I went from an electric FP gauge that was on the truck when we bought it,to an isolator, and now it has live fuel to the back of the gauge. You will or should run a short section of rubber line and also the needle valve shutoff to keep the VP44 from killing the gauge.
With the way the pump pulses the gauge cant handle it. I am running Areoquip lines and fittings with the needle vavle and the gauge needle is rock solid, but also its sensitive to fuel pressure drop...
