 Subject: FUEL REGULATOR

Message:
I can not figure out how to hook up my aftermarket fuel regulator. It has two inlets and one outlet. It is just like the A1000 Aeromotive. I have the factory fuel rails, and a inline fuel pump with no return line. From what I was told the return line goes to the tank to return the fuel. So how would I hook this regualtor up. The line coming from the fuel tank, going to the back of the inline pump. At the back of the inline pump it has a T connector. Off of the T a line runs up to the regulator. The other line coming off of the T runs into the back of the pump. Then in front of the pump you have another line which is the Hi-press line. This line also has a T connector. A line comes off of this T an goes to the fuel rail. The other line that comes off of that T goes to the regulator. What do I have to do to regulate fuel to the rail???? I am confused, PLEASE HELP.
I was told by a friend to cap off both of the T connectors and run the hi-press line from the inline pump to one of the inlets on the regulator. Then cap off the other inlet and run the return line from the regulator directly to the fuel rail. Will this idea work, or should I even try it. THANKS

You need to run the high pressure line into the regulator (marked in). Hook the rail to the regulator connection marked (OUT) . Run the one marked return to the T on the intake side of pump and you got it. There is no pressure on the in line so excess fuel will push itself back to the tank via the in line. Should create no problem with fuel delivery as there is no air involved. Only other salution would be to plumb a return line into your tank.

After thought. Just wonderng why you feel you need this regulator. You running a high pressure over rated pump or are you doing this on a race car. Seems this is over kill as the pump only runs on demand so it is self regulating. You may cause a condition making the pump run continous and burn it up in short order. There pricey.
