tape in the gas tank???

I have always been a firm believer in soldering my connections..question is, is it safe to tape over my connections when i solder my wires for my walbro? should i just butt connect them. i didnt know whether the tape would "break down" after awhile in the gas

I would just use connectors. No tape. But then again I bought the racetronix set up so all the wiring was done for me

Just giving you a hard time, but I would leave the tape out

You are not alone, I bought an inline FP before I bought my racetronix set up so I hacked up my fuel lines when I could have just installed the racetronix from the get go and wouldn't have to worry about that stupid inline FP

But I swear I have seen a couple of write ups on here about this type of install. But you have to nail it with the "search" feature to find anything out.
