Plumbing:
The fuel supply pick up tube, fuel lines, and fittings shall be no smaller than ½”
inside diameter between the fuel tank and Aero Motive high-pressure fuel pump. The fuel pump
must also have the supplied 100 Micron filter installed on the inlet side of the fuel pump.
When using an auxiliary engine such as an outboard motor, never plumb or tee into the main
engine fuel system. The auxiliary engine shall have its own fuel pick up tube and fuel filter/water
separator from the fuel tank. Plumbing into the main engine fuel supply will cause damage to
the engine and fuel pump system.
Fuel pump placement:
The AeroMotive fuel pump must be placed as close to the fuel tank as
possible. A
30” Maximum
distance from the fuel tank outlet to the fuel pump inlet shall not be
exceeded.
The fuel pump must also be placed as low to the bottom of the fuel tank as possible. Using the
lowest point on the bottom of the fuel tank, mount the fuel pump a
Maximum vertical distance
of 12”
from the bottom of the fuel tank. Check for any laws and/or restrictions that may apply.
The Racor fuel /water separator should
NEVER
be placed on the outlet side of the high-
pressure fuel pump. The Racor fuel filter/water separator shall also be mounted within a
Maximum distance of 12”
vertical from the bottom of the fuel tank.
Hoses:
Use only
USCG Approved
fuel lines. Check for any laws and/or restrictions that may
apply. Check when routing the fuel lines that they are not laying over, or rubbing against any
sharp edges.
Fittings:
When choosing fittings, the use of a 90
°
full flow design is preferable over the
restricted tight 90
°
fittings.
Setting the fuel pressure:
The fuel pressure regulator is non-adjustable and has been factory
sealed as required by EPA regulations.
Any attempt to change the fuel pressure settings on
the fuel pressure regulator will void all warranties for this engine.
Once the vessel is in the water with the engine running at idle, verify with Diacom the target fuel
pressure
65-psi Minimum, 67-psi
Maximum pressure
. After the fuel pressure has been
verified, double check for any fuel leaks in the fuel system.
Once the fuel pressure has been confirmed using Diacom, and the fuel pressure is at the
recommended pressure
Minimum/Maximum
, run the engine in a sea trials situation. Verify the
system is not leaking at any fitting or hose connection. If the fuel pressure does not fall within
the
Minimum/Maximum
allowed pressure, contact your nearest service dealer for assistance.
