Ford Mustang Regulators are replacement for stock regulators
but provide adjustability.
1. If the vehicle was originally equipped with a high pressure
EFI pump and return line and you are now switching to a carburetor,
you need a regulator to drop the pressure to the 4.5 to 9
PSI range
for carburetors. That also allows you to hook up the stock
return line. Without a return line, the original EFI fuel
pump will supply too much pressure and volume to the regulator.
Note that many 1999
and later vehicles utilize a "returnless" system.
Both the fuel pump and regulator are in the gas tank. If you
are installing a carburetor on one of these vehicles, you
will need to remove the regulator and
pump, or disable them, and use an external fuel pump suitable
for carburetors and one of our conventional carburetor style
regulators such as the 10650/10651/10656/10657/10660/10661.

An
explanation about "ports."
If
you have studied the various descriptions of regulators you
will
find that the definition of "ports" can be very
confusing. Especially when it comes to regulators with a bypass
(return) line. In all of our designations,when we say "2-port"
or "4-port" that means the total number of outlet
ports, including a return or bypass line port if the regulator
is so equipped. For example, our 5-port models have one inlet
port and five outlet ports, one of which is a return or bypass
line port. So there are still four usable outlet ports. |
