Can Copper describe to us the setup he made?

Use a section of 3" Steel pipe and screw in one steel cap at each end. Then tap the caps for a fill hole and an outlet for the cleaner.
That will take care of the 35psi you put on with plenty of safety factor.
It's rather heavy though

Well used piece of equipment used in many industrial air supply systems, which will protect the fuel system from overpressure damage from any compressor. Good price too!
Only thing to watch out is if the Gumout will attack the polycarbonate feed /drain bowls. Good chance it will be O.K. but with plastics you have to be careful.
