Fuel Pressure Snubber Valve for 30 PSI Fuel Pressure Gauge

The Snubber Valve regulates, normalizes and eliminates fuel pressure spikes that are present during the initial ignition and
startup of your 86-12 Dodge Ram with a Cummins Diesel Engine. The Snubber Valve manages these high pressure spikes
to by use of a regulator. High pressure fuel system spikes during startup are harmful and may cause early and unexpected
failure of electronic fuel pressure sensors and/or sending units for fuel pressure gauges.

pressure sensor or directly into your aftermarket fuel pump’s test port.

2. Screw the 1/8

th

NPT male threads of the fuel pressure sensor into the female end of the snubber valve.

Note: Be sure to use Teflon tape on the sensor threads to ensure a tight seal.
