Regulated return help
I was wondering for those of you who have installed a regulated return do you use the boost reference off the regulator or just cap it

Pics?

On mine, there is a small barbed fitting, which has a 1/8" tube on it in case the diaphragm develops a leak.

Assuming that if the reg fails, diesel will squirt from that....bad things. Grab some tubing and route it to a wheel well opening.

Mine, from Strictly Diesel, looks based on an Aeromotive product.
