Stealth Ram AFPR

Can someone either send me a link to or explain to me how to get the AFPR into the general ballpark. I got my AFPR and the set screw is full clockwise. I need to know roughly how many full turn is needed to get into the general ballpark? Thanks in advance

Re: Stealth Ram AFPR

well if you have it bottomed out, your most likely well above 60 psi.

Re: Stealth Ram AFPR

Hi,

What you really need to do is get yourself a fuel pressure
gauge so you know where your at.

Doesn't have to permently installed if you get a portable.
I just use a Snap-On with the adapter to plug into the fuel
rail.

I just don't like using the inline as don't trust them for the
street n leaks or broken lens or needles.
Just my experience from the past.
Get a gauge however.

Later

Re: Stealth Ram AFPR

I tried this and it seems to be fixed. At least according to 2 seperate rail mounted liquid filled gauges. I had issues with my AFPR not wanting to hold pressure. I turned the AFPR all the way to max pressure. I clamped the return line and primed the system...it would hold pressure until I unclamped it and then immedietly bled to 0psi. I repeated this a few times to see i perhaps I had a leak to no prevail. I then clamped and primed 3 times with pressure well over 60psi...unclamped and it finally held pressure. I turned the screw down til it read 45psi. Re checked in 30min. later to show 40psi. 8 hours later 30psi. So Now it shows the regulator is regulating pressure. Im gonna try starting it tommorow if I have time and when its running Ill make my quick adjustments to pressure. Thanks for the input.
