The regulator’s numbered top dial provides repeatable settings in a 1–5 psi range, and the kit ships with three common adapter sizes—1\/4\", 5\/16\" and 3\/8\"—so it fits a wide set of fuel line configurations. Built with anodic oxidation for corrosion resistance, the unit is intended for hobbyist and repair-shop installations where a reliable, adjustable pressure stop is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I adjust the fuel pressure to match my carburetor?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAdjustment is done by turning the numbered dial on the regulator’s top. Rotate the dial until the desired psi marking aligns with the reference; each mark corresponds to an approximate pressure within the 1–5 psi range. Always confirm the setting with a separate inline fuel pressure gauge for precise tuning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTop-mounted numbered dial for 1–5 psi adjustments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTurn slowly while engine is at idle or under low load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVerify with an inline fuel pressure gauge after setting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmall increments provide finer control for carburetor tuning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich fuel lines and fittings are compatible with the kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit includes 1\/4\", 5\/16\" and 3\/8\" adapters to accommodate common fuel hose sizes used on small engines and classic cars with carburetors. Choose the adapter that matches the inner diameter of your fuel line or hose barb and secure it with a clamp. For threaded connections, apply thread seal tape to prevent leaks as recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncluded adapters: 1\/4\", 5\/16\", 3\/8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks with facet-style fuel pumps and typical carburetor feed lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse hose clamps for barb fittings and thread seal tape on threaded joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCheck compatibility visually before final mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat construction and pressure limits should I be aware of?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe regulator body is made from zinc alloy and finished with anodic oxidation to resist corrosion and wear in fuel-system environments. It is engineered for a maximum safe input pressure of 7 psi; do not exceed this limit.

Before finalizing lines, install the appropriate adapter, tighten hose clamps, and wrap threaded connections with PTFE thread seal tape.

It’s especially helpful when upgrading or replacing facet-style pumps, tuning a carburetor for consistent fuel flow, or converting between different fuel line sizes using the included adapters. If you require electronic control or higher-pressure fuel systems, consider a different regulator designed for those specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I use this regulator with electric fuel pumps?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: The regulator is designed for facet-style pumps and low-pressure systems; ensure inlet pressure does not exceed 7 psi before use with electric pumps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Does the kit include installation hardware?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: The kit includes three fuel adapters (1\/4\", 5\/16\", 3\/8\") but does not include mounting brackets or hose clamps—use separate clamps and thread seal tape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Pilida","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48087595024542,"sku":"B092DK7W1G","price":37.98,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/2041\/9486\/files\/pilida-front-profile-regulator.jpg?v=1785926276","url":"https:\/\/northtrailauto.ca\/products\/pilida-manual-fuel-pressure-regulator-kit-1-5-psi-with-1-4-5-16-3-8-adapters-zinc-alloy-top-dial","provider":"North Trail Auto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
