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 may be under pressure. Do not open the fuel system until any pressure has been relieved. Refer to the appropriate vehicle service manual for the procedure and precautions for relieving the fuel system pressure.
NOTE: Testing the enclosed regulator by applying air pressure or vacuum to the vacuum port with a hand-held pump will yield poor results, due to the slight air leakage through the adjustment screw threads. This minute leakage, which is typical of all adjustable fuel pressure regulators, does not, in any way, affect the performance of the regulator.
The enclose Aeromotive regulator utilizes one o-ring sealed AN-10 style inlet port, three o-ring sealed AN-08 outlet ports and one o-ring sealed AN-10 style bypass; These regulator ports are NOT PIPE THREAD regulator cover is a AN-04 style, if your application requires a barbed fitting one is provided for your convenience.
The enclosed Aeromotive regulator is designed to be used with the Aeromotive “Pro series” fuel pump(s) Aeromotive P/N 11102.
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, disconnect the negative battery cable and relieve any fuel system
pressure.
2. Place shop towels around the regulator to catch any gasoline that is spilled during this step of the installation.
Remove any regulator mounting hardware and connecting fuel lines, then carefully remove the regulator.
3. Find a suitable place in the vehicle’s engine compartment to mount the Aeromotive regulator. Using the supplied
mounting bracket as a template, mark the bracket mounting holes and drill to accept a #10 screw.
and utilize NO THREAD SEALANT. The Boost reference fitting installed in the
4. With the bracket attached to the regulator, mount the bracket and regulator to the vehicle using two #10 screws,
nuts and lock washers.
5. Using a Y-block, split the supply line into two AN-08 lines and feed one side of each fuel rail. From the other end
of each fuel rail run an AN-08 line into each of the AN-08 ports on the regulator using the two supplied AN-08 fittings and o-rings (Figure 1).
6. Using the AN-08 port plug and o-ring provided, block off the unused AN-08 port on the regulator.
7. Using the AN-10 port plug and o-ring provided, block off the AN-10 port on the front of the regulator.
8. Attach the fuel return line to the AN-10 bypass port located at the bottom of the regulator using the supplied
cutoff AN-10 style fitting and o-ring.
Figure 1.
9. Tighten all connections.
10. Once the regulator is installed, attach a suitable fuel pressure gauge to the 1/8 NPT port on the fuel pressure
regulator.
11. Ensure that any spilled gasoline and any gasoline soaked shop towels are cleaned up and removed from
the vicinity of the vehicle!
12. Reconnect the battery and turn the fuel pump ON WITHOUT starting the car. After several seconds, check the
fuel pressure. If there is no fuel pressure, turn the fuel pump OFF, wait one minute, return the fuel pump ON, and recheck the fuel pressure. Repeat this OFF and ON procedure until the fuel pressure gauge registers fuel pressure.
13. With the fuel pressure gauge registering fuel system pressure, check for fuel leaks from and around the
Aeromotive regulator and all fuel lines and connections near the regulator! If any fuel leaks are found, turn the fuel pump OFF, remove any spilled fuel and repair the leak before proceeding!
14. Once the fuel pressure gauge registers fuel system pressure and there are no fuel leaks, start the engine and
adjust the regulator to the desired fuel pressure (Regulator is adjustable from 30-60 psi). Turning the adjustment screw clockwise will increase fuel pressure.
15. Once the desired fuel pressure is achieved, tighten the regulator adjustment jam nut.
16. If you do not want to keep the fuel pressure gauge on the vehicle, relieve the fuel system pressure as instructed
in the appropriate vehicle service manual. Remove the fuel pressure gauge and reinstall the 1/8 NPT pipe plug into the regulator gauge port, using thread sealant..
17. Test drive the car to insure proper operation and re-check the fuel system for leaks. If any leaks are found,
immediately shut off the engine and repair the leak(s)!
