I have a small plastic hose with my kit with compression fittings on each side and from the guage through the firewall I have a thick rubber hose that the kit came with, should I just run the plastic line from the VP directly to the black hose to the guage?
Thanks
Not recommended. The VP will kill the gauge.

Thats what the needle valve is for. It dampens the pressure spikes and saves the guage. Isolators just cause problems and inaccurate readings.
