An acquaintance of mine suffered a fuel cooler breakdown on his 6BTA resulting in 16 gallons of sea water in his fuel tanks. $25k later, he’s up and running again BUT… I’ve decided to nip that possibility in the bud and install one of your kits. Now, I rebuilt V8s and British 4 cylinder car engines in my youth so I can turn a wrench. I’ve tackled oil changes/filters and fuel filter changes on the 6BTA in our boat so the diesel world is coming into focus. I’ve also watched your tutorial video on fuel cooler removal. I have only one diesel “newbie” question about the process. In the video, your new fuel return line fitting and fuel supply line fitting were left unattached to anything. Is it as simple as installing a hose between these two fittings? I’ve looked at the “maze” before picture and it looks like the return line ran through the fuel cooler, out to the combo block then out and up to the supply line area above. True?

Many thanks!
