Hi MN,



You may be referring to the new "Excel Fueler" also a Slimline product. I have not used one, but have seen them advertised. It has the threaded cap you mentioned. You can check it out here:

Thanks for the response but this is not the one that I was referring to. With the unit that I have in mind and as you pull the plug, you also pull the fuel line with it as the "plug" also caps the fuel line. The outer edges of the plug are serrated so that you use your fingers to screw the plug back in its fitting as opposed to using a screw driver in Excel's plug.

You are speaking of fuel dots. I have not seen any that screw in. They would be twisting the attached fuel line. The ones I have seen have an o-ring on them and just push in.

Thanks for the info but this is not the kind the I have in mind. The other day I ran into a guy in the field who uses this unit. He did not remember the website but he remembered the name of the plug to be Miracle Plug. I've done a search and so far I've not found it. MN

Here's a Slimline filler that has a threaded cap

The only "Miracle Plug" I've heard of is a Fox glow plug.
