An annular flange is disposed on a peripheral surface of the tank tee passageway. At least one through-hole structure is disposed in the tank tee body downstream of the annular flange. A poppet valve assembly is disposed in the tank tee passageway between the annular flange and the at least one through-hole structure. The poppet valve assembly includes a poppet and a guide. The guide is rigidly secured within the tank tee passageway. The guide includes a guide base. The guide base has an outside diameter that is larger than an inside diameter of the annular flange.
