Aeromotive 11108 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

11101, 11108 & 11151 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

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.

To use this pump in your vehicle’s fuel system, you must do the following

• A by-pass style fuel pressure regulator must be used in the system.

• Utilize AN-10 size high pressure fuel lines, fittings and o-rings for all

connections from the fuel tank pickup to the fuel pump.

• To ensure proper fuel pump performance and longevity, mount pump level with

or lower than the bottom, and as close to the tank, as possible.

• Install a 12304 pre-filter and 12301 post filter.

• If you are using a stock fuel tank, install a reservoir sump in the bottom-rear of

your fuel tank. Exercise extreme caution and follow all manufacturers’

recommendations when installing a reservoir sump. (Sump part # 18650)

• Tank/Fuel cell must have at least a ½” tank vent.

• If you choose not to install a reservoir sump, then you must install a high flow

capacity fuel tank pickup (9/16” to 5/8” inner tube diameter). Installing pickup

tube instead of a reservoir sump may shorten the fuel pump life and cause

drivability problems. When using a pickup, you should maintain at least ½ tank

of fuel to avoid possible engine lean-out and/or fuel pump damage.

• For long term driving applications where continuous run times exceed 30

minutes and fuel capacity is less then 10 gallons, Aeromotive recommends the

installation of a Fuel Pump Speed Controller to maintain lower fuel

temperatures in the tank. See Aeromotive Fuel Pump Speed Controller 16306.

Failure to follow the above 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!

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.

The enclosed Aeromotive fuel pump utilizes AN-10 ORB (O-ring Boss Ports) style inlet and outlet ports;
these ports are NOT PIPE THREAD and utilize NO THREAD SEALANT.

Compatible Fuels:

Pump Gas

Race Gas

E85

Diesel

Alcohol/Ethanol

The following steps are typical of most installations:

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

2. Install an after-market sumped high flow capacity fuel tank or fuel cell, per the manufacturer’s

instructions.

3. Find a suitable place on the vehicle chassis to mount the fuel pump. Make sure the location will

accommodate the pump mounting bolts. Make sure to position the pump at or below the bottom of
the tank. Make sure that the pump 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.

4. Using the enclosed template, mark and drill four mounting holes to accept ¼” bolts. Mount the fuel

pump using four ¼” bolts, nuts and lock washers. For quieter fuel pump operation use Aeromotive
p/n 11601 fuel pump vibration dampening mounting kit.

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

5. Using minimum of 9/16” ID or AN-10 fuel line, connect the fuel tank sump outlet to a 12304 fuel

filter. Using the same size fuel line connect the fuel filter outlet to the fuel pump inlet, or if you are
using an Aeromotive fuel filter you can attached the filter directly to the fuel pump utilizing an AN-10
fitting (15608) and 2 sealing o-rings (10AN o-ring pack 15623).

Note: It is recommended that a fuel shut off valve be installed between the fuel tank outlet and
the fuel pump. Use Aeromotive part # 12331 shutoff valve fuel filter and 15640 swivel fitting to
make the connection.

6. Using AN-10 fuel line, connect the fuel pump outlet to the 12301 fuel filter. You can attached the filter
directly to the fuel pump utilizing an AN-10 fitting (15608) and 2 sealing o-rings (10AN o-ring pack

15623). Make sure you use high pressure (150 psi minimum) fuel line for this connection!

7. Using AN-08 or AN-10 fuel line, connect the fuel filter outlet to the “Y” block (15620, 15675 or 15674).
From the “Y” block use AN-08 lines to make the connection to the fuel rails. Make sure you use high
pressure (150 psi minimum) fuel line for this connection! For optimum fuel system performance
in EFI applications, Aeromotive recommends a balanced system with the fuel pressure regulator as
the last component in the system as shown in the following diagram.

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.
