Default air dog questions

when i put the air dog on my truck, i had a problem with fuel coming out of the old supply line to the stock lift pump. it more or less syphoned the tank when it was full, and had to put vise gribs on the line, and i ended up making a plug right at the tank for it.

so is this still an issue for the ones that removed the stock lift pump and fuel filter? if it is, what have yall done to stop this?

also, the water in fuel light, what do yall do to keep it from coming on?

When I put mine 150 in i had the old lines completly out of the tank before I unhooked them. I can't remember if I ended up plugging the stock suction line or what I did. I have the bed off so I'll look tonight.

I just unpluged my water in fuel light, hasnt come on since.

since the line is higher than the tank and aridog itself, they will drian off, and not hae any in the top part of the line till u turn the key on, and it pressurizes it again. there isnt any check valves to keep pressure all the time on the line
