Oops, I meant CFR, not CFG.
  
  If you're a glutton for punishment, the Code of Federal Regulations for fuel systems (Title 33 - Navigation and Navigable Waters, Chapter 1 Coast Guard, Part 183 Boats and Associated Equipment, 183.500 - 183.599) and Title 46 Part 182. Title 33 Part 183 is technically for gasoline but still contains valuable information. Title 46 Part 182 is specifically for 'inspected vessels' but again contains valuable guidelines. If you google them you'll find on-line copies.

where to find the info.

Thanks again,
