8. Make sure you use stranded, insulated copper wire, in the sizes shown, with matching crimp-type

connectors for all connections.


9. Locate the OEM fuel pump supply wires, located near the OEM fuel pump mounting location. Using

that supply wire, connect the Aeromotive fuel pump as shown in the following diagram.


10. Attach a suitable, non-liquid filled fuel pressure gauge to the fuel system schrader valve, fuel rail or

fuel pressure regulator.
P/N 15632 0-15 PSI (1 ½”) “Dry” Fuel Pressure Gauge
P/N 15633 0-100 PSI (1 ½”) “Dry” Fuel Pressure Gauge

Ensure that any spilled fuel and any fuel soaked shop towels are cleaned up and removed
from the vicinity of the vehicle.

CAUTION:

While performing the following steps, if any fuel leaks are detected, immediately turn

the ignition to OFF, remove any spilled fuel and repair the leak(s) before proceeding!

11.
Turn the ignition to ON without starting the engine, allow the pump to run for several seconds and

check the fuel pressure. If there is no pressure, turn the ignition to OFF, wait one minute, then turn the
ignition to ON and recheck the pressure. Repeat this ignition OFF and ON procedure until the gauge
registers pressure or you detect a fuel leak. If no pressure is registered on the gauge after running the
pump for several seconds and you have found no leaks, check all fuel and electrical connections to
determine the cause.


12.
Once the fuel pressure gauge registers pressure, start the engine. The fuel pressure gauge should

register between 40 and 70 psi. If you have installed an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, adjust it to
the desired setting. (For maximum fuel system performance, we recommend using an Aeromotive
adjustable fuel pressure regulator; call us for info.)


13.
Shut the engine off. Using suitable clips and other mounting hardware, secure the newly installed fuel

lines and electrical wires by attaching them to the vehicle chassis.


14.
Test-drive the vehicle to insure proper operation and re-check the fuel system for leaks. If any leaks

are found, immediately discontinue use of the vehicle and repair the leak(s)!
