installing aeromotive fuel reg. questions

[spic21]

just want to make sure i got this right. im going from fuel filter to the fuel reg. then to left side of fuel rail(passenger side). then im gonna come out left of rail to the return. and im moving the vacuum line to the new regulator right?

also can i use the other side of my regulator for my fuel gauge that is ran to inside of car?

i been looking at alot of threads on this and have seem many pics of the regulator installed but not what the fuel rail looks like when its done. if anyone as one or link to one please hook me up.

also i found this in a thread earlier: 2.) Do NOT use liquid filled fuel pressure gauges on any automotive tuning application. By design, they cannot provide consistent readings as the gauge temperature changes.
is this because of cold weather changes because, i already have the liquid filled gauge and i live in louisiana and it really never freezes here. just wondering

Your AFPR takes the same position as the stock FPR.

Filter -> Rail -> AFPR -> Return

Gauge should use the 1/8" port on AFPR.

The stock FPR vacuum line should be used.


Make sure engine and exhaust has cooled down and there is no pressure left in fuel system before working on it.

What that guy said. Im about to install mine as soon as my fittings come in.
I would also suggest getting a liquid filled gauge to monitor fuel pressure and mount it on the regulator.

If you ever run NO2 you can run a line to the regulator and use the extra port.

any chance you have part numbers for thos fittings. all i find is kits with the reg. i already have a aeromotive 13109 and a liquid filled gauge so i dont need them. all i need is hoses and connectors
this is the acticle i read about not using liqiud filled gauges. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/372883-interesting-read-aeromotive.html

STM sells the fitting from the rail to the reg. (fuel return). Other than that you'll need some others which you can get from JEGS or Summit racing along with the hose. If you're not familure with AN fittings I would just suggest push lock fittings then or if a company sells a line kit just buy it and save yourself the hassell.

I actually made a YouTube video for my channel on how to install an AFPR for the DSM this past weekend. This one is part 1 of 2 but you can at least visualize the scenario a little better. Good luck.
