Default Tapping vp44

I got the quadzilla and a smarty, but i just put in a new vp44 from it having hard starts while hot. Now ive heard that when i use my quadzilla to tap the vp44 for fueling is what causes these vp44 to go bad, so what does tapping the vp44 really do for me whith the quadzilla?

usually its the electronic circuit board inside the VP that goes out due to heat........................yer airdog 150 should flow plenty of fuel to pull the heat away and keep it lubed though

tap it as long as you have good fuel pressure it will live a long time. Mine has been tapped a long time. lack of fuel kills these
