I'll second that; however I'll leave it to you to assemble the links
directing said noob to the proper hoses, clamps, clamp tools, fuel filters
(both kinds and threads concerning whether and how to run one or both and

concerning same), vent kits including threads on 'how to' and pics and vids
of burnt vans.

And anything else relevant that I forgot. :)

Have fun,
Robert
