Hey ya'll, I'm installing my espar heater now and am wondering if the photos attached are indeed the auxiliary fuel tap?

Also, some supplementary questions others might find useful:
* Is this still tapped down to 25% with VS30 sprinters?
* will an adapter such as https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CJLL3N6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 still work so that I can connect the fuel hose to it?

Cheers!
Yes, that’s the Dorman part number you need. I had the factory aux heater so I needed a different model along with a brass barbed reducer.

Not sure about how far down it’s tapped. I had to make a trip to the gas station to top off in order for my heater to prime for the first time. It was around a third but I was parked pointing uphill in my driveway.

@BigDC, could you post a link of what you bought, the one that is for a van with the aux heater.
