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 four o-ring sealed AN-08 inlet/outlet ports around the
perimeter of the regulator and one o-ring sealed AN-10 style bypass port on the bottom of the
regulator (This port requires a cutoff AN-10 style fitting Aeromotive P/N 156-08-F or equiv.); these
regulator ports are NOT PIPE THREAD
The enclosed Aeromotive regulator is designed to be used with high flow (300 gph minimum) belt
or cam driven fuel pumps similar to Aeromotive P/N 11105 or 11107. Performance may be
degraded if a similar pump is not used.
Aeromotive system components are not legal for sale or use on emission controlled motor vehicles.
and utilize NO THREAD SEALANT.
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.
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. Attach the fuel supply line to one of the AN-08 ports located around the perimeter of the regulator
using AN-8 style fittings and o-rings.
6. Attach the fuel return line to the AN-10 bypass port located at the bottom of the regulator using a
cutoff AN-10 style fitting (Aeromotive P/N 15608 or equivalent) and o-ring.
7. If you are not using a fuel log, attach the fuel supply line(s) to the carburetor using any of the
remaining AN-08 port around the perimeter of the regulator body using AN-08 style fittings and orings. Install AN-08 style plugs and o-rings into the outlet ports not used.
8. Tighten all connections.
9. Once the regulator is installed, attach a suitable fuel pressure gauge in the fuel system.
