    Just run copper tubing (I use 1/4") from the fuel line where you would
    normally install the vacuum gauge, up to the helm station to the gauge area
    and add a short section of fuel hose if needed for access
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Would you not want to add a shutoff valve close to the filter? If for
    whatever reason the integrity of the line is lost I believe you would lose suction
    and draw air into the fuel system and also possibly spill fuel depending upon
    the relationship of filter to tank, etc.
