opjose,

You missed the part about it being a cowled engine.
Normally I run the pressure tube into a retired fuel tank for retrieval.

Thanks All,

I sure did!

ACDII's idea is pretty good.

The line doesn't have to run outside the cowl at all.

A more complicated approach is to put a secondary fueler on the pressure line rigged so that excess fuel flows out when you have the fitting in place.
