The 8089 Carburetor Inlet Fitting is designed to improve fuel line management and provide additional clearance in carburetor setups. Made from high-quality brass, this fitting is durable and corrosion-resistant. It's compatible with Edelbrock Square-Bore, Carter AFB, Performer, and Thunder AVS carburetors.
Installation Instructions:
1. Preparation:
Ensure the engine is turned off and cool before starting.
Disconnect the fuel line from the carburetor.
2. Remove Old Fitting:
Unscrew and remove the existing carburetor inlet fitting using a wrench.
3. Install the New Fitting:
Thread the new Edelbrock 8089 fitting (5/8"-20 and 3/8" banjo bolt threads) into the carburetor inlet by hand to start, ensuring it's properly aligned.
Tighten with a wrench until secure but avoid overtightening.
4. Adjust the Fitting:
Rotate the fitting up to 360° to aim the fuel inlet for optimal positioning (front or rear) to suit your setup.
5. Reconnect Fuel Line:
Reconnect the fuel line to the new fitting, ensuring all connections are tight to prevent leaks.
6. Final Check:
Start the engine and inspect for any leaks around the fitting. Adjust if necessary.
