I cant remember if my AFPR came with some plugs or not.

3/8" npt pipe plugs work fine. You don't technically have 4 ports since one port is the inlet, which leaves 3 ports open. The return is the bottom one. On my car 2 ports go to the double pumper carb and one is for the solenoids.

They have multiple outlet (regulated) ports for either multiple carbs or multiple carb fuel inlets, plus enough for one to go to a fuel pressure gage.
