Cermark has them; I just ordered some... two pairs for four or five bucks. JTec has them for eight bucks apiece(!). I know there was another source where I bought a bunch of them. The price was very good. Tthey were available in anodized colors and included a spare plug with each set. If I remember the source, I'll post it.

R/C City makes a nice aluminum fuel dot that has the aluminum housing that installs in the fuse or cowling along with an aluminum plug. My LHS carries them but you may be able to find them on the net.

Are you talking about these?
These are PSP fuel dots (the best, IMHO), and you can order them from [link]http://www.pspmfg.com/[/link]

Those are the ones. They are my favorites, too.

I've been using the J'tec ones but everyone seems to be out of them. [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXVW09&P=7]J'tec fueler[/link]
I ordered a bunch of the PSP ones now though. They look just as good or better if you're into colors.

RE: Fueling question?
I like the ones from Madison that has a half-turn thread to secure the fuel dot http://www.qualityrcproducts.com/pro...clefueler.html You can order without the y-connector at a lower price. The "miracle fueler" concept using the y-connector doesn't work as there is backflow to the carb which will flood the engine. I use three-line to the fuel tank and a fuel dot.
