NO, they are a waste of money, just run a straight line to the gauge.

I just finished up my install of my Walbro from Glacier. I also have theri Big line kit from the filter housing to the CP3. I have a "t" in that line with a mechanical gauge screwed in ther. I plan on taking that gauge out, and installing the sending unit on that "t", and I just do not see any serious vibration problems at that location, I guess time will tell.....

Thanks for the response

Interesting, 32 people have not used an isolator, 0 had a gauge leak by not using an isolator, 37 people have used an isolator.
There should have neen an option:
-who's used an isolator, had problems and had to change it or just took it out.

There is another poll out there.

It tells a different tale, I believe it showed 70% running mechanical.

I searched two times for it now, only thing I can think of is that it was back before a software change, there must not be a little poll icon in the searches over a year ago.
?

I wanted badly to revive it, there was also a few stories of people who had multiple isolator failures.
