Re: Fuel regulator and gauge

Are you running a mechanical or electric pump?

If your running a electric pump. Use a bypass regulator. It keeps the pump cooler, and running longer. They do not like dead head pumping. Which reduces their life span.

If you have a mechanical either works fine. A dead head since it is cheaper to install, and a bypass if you have fuel temp issues.
