AEROMOTIVE Part # 11102

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION:

Installation of this product requires detailed knowledge of automotive systems and repair
procedures. We recommend that this installation be carried out by a qualified automotive
technician.

Installation of this product requires handling of gasoline. Ensure you are working in a well
ventilated area with an approved fire extinguisher nearby. Extinguish all open flames, prohibit
smoking and eliminate all sources of ignition in the area of the vehicle before proceeding with the
installation.

When installing this product, wear eye goggles and other safety apparel as needed to
protect yourself from debris and sprayed gasoline.

WARNING!

The fuel system is under pressure. Do not open the fuel system until the pressure has
been relieved. Refer to the appropriate vehicle service manual for the procedure and precautions
for relieving the fuel system pressure.

The enclosed Aeromotive fuel pump utilizes an o-ring sealed AN-12 style inlet and outlet ports; these ports
are NOT PIPE THREAD and utilize NO THREAD SEALANT.

A high capacity fuel filter must be installed between the fuel tank and pump inlet. We recommend an
Aeromotive P/N 12302. Call us for info.

To use this pump in your vehicle’s fuel system, we strongly recommend the following

Gravity feed the pump by mounting it lower than and as close as possible to the fuel tank.
If you are using a stock fuel tank, install a reservoir style sump in the bottom-rear of your fuel

tank. Exercise extreme caution and follow all manufacturer’s recommendations when

installing a reservoir style sump.
Utilize AN-12 size high pressure fuel lines, fittings and o-rings for all connections from the
fuel tank pickup to the fuel rails in the engine compartment.

Failure to follow the above recommendations may result in fuel leakage, bursting of the fuel lines, poor
vehicle performance and/or decreased fuel pump life! Improper installation will void all warranties for this
product!

Aeromotive system components are not legal for sale or use on emission controlled motor vehicles.

The following steps are typical of most installations:

1. Once the engine has been allowed to cool, relieve the fuel system pressure and disconnect the
negative battery cable.

2. Raise the vehicle and support it with jack stands.

3. Referring to the appropriate vehicle service manual for instructions, remove the OEM fuel pump.

4. Install an after-market fuel tank sump kit, per the manufacturer’s instructions.

Note: Failure to mount the pump lower than and close to the fuel tank may cause the pump to run
dry, resulting in extreme pump wear! Make sure the pump is located lower than and as close as
possible to the fuel tank, so that the pump is always supplied with fuel!

5. Find a suitable place on the vehicle chassis to mount the Aeromotive fuel pump. Make sure the
location will accommodate the pump mounting bolts, will position the pump lower than the fuel tank, is
clear of the exhaust, is clear of any moving suspension or drivetrain components and will keep the
pump clear of road obstructions or debris.

6. Using the pump as a template, mark and drill four mounting holes to accept ¼” bolts. Mount the fuel
pump using four ¼” bolts, nuts and lock washers.

Note: Be sure to route all fuel lines clear of any moving suspension or drivetrain components, and
any exhaust components! Protect fuel lines from abrasion and road obstructions or debris.

7. Connect the fuel tank sump to the fuel filter inlet and the fuel filter outlet to the fuel pump inlet.

8. Connect the fuel pump outlet to the vehicle’s fuel rails in the engine compartment. Make sure you
use high pressure (200 psi minimum) fuel line for this connection!

Note: Be sure to route all electrical wires clear of any moving suspension or drivetrain
components and any exhaust components! Protect wires from abrasion and road obstructions or
debris.

9. There are several ways to connect electrical power to the pump, depending on your fuel injection
system. Make sure you use stranded, insulated copper wire, in the sizes shown, with matching crimp­type connectors for all connections.

10. Attach the OEM fuel pump wires, the aftermarket ECM fuel pump wires or your fuel pump switch wires
as shown in the following diagram.
