1.6.4 Pressure regulator installation instructions:
The following rules relate specifically to the installation of the pressure regulator:
•
Install the regulator in such a way that it is accessible for maintenance and adjustment purposes.
•
Never install the pressure regulator directly on the engine or on components located on the engine.
•
Install the pressure regulator with the adjustment side at the top, unless otherwise specified in the installation
manual.
•
Remove ALL plastic protection plugs from the pressure regulator.
•
Connect the coolant hoses as indicated. The coolant nipples on the pressure regulator can be turned to ensure
proper routing of the coolant hoses.
•
Secure the coolant hoses using the supplied hose clamps.
•
The other ends of the coolant hoses are connected parallel to the heater hoses by means of T-pieces.
•
Ensure there are no kinks in the coolant hoses. Proper and even heat exchange is necessary in order to allow
the LPG to evaporate.
•
Install the pressure regulator below the highest fluid level of the cooling system to avoid air bubbles.
•
Once the system has been installed, the engine must be allowed to warm up so that the heating of the
pressure regulator and any eventual coolant leakages can be checked.
•
Every time the cooling system is drained, it must be filled and bled in accordance with factory specifications.
•
Check the heating of the pressure regulator and for possible water leakage, by letting the engine run idle.
