The meter is accurately calibrated at the
factory for use with diesel fuel� Due to
differences in viscosity and flow rates,
the meter may require recalibration
to measure other fuels or to adjust
for inaccuracies� A gear replacement
kit is available (PN 139500-15, see
Illustrated Parts List section) to
convert the meter to unleaded fuels�
1� To adjust the calibration of the me-
ter, gain access to the calibration
screw by performing the following:
(see Figure 4)
2� Remove the back plate and the
(4) screws retaining it� The O-ring
seal under the plate must not be
damaged�
3� Using the 5MM hex L-wrench
provided with the meter, adjust the
calibration screw as required�
4� Note: The calibration screw set-
ting may have been adjusted at
the factory� The gasoline setting
is approximately fully closed (turn
clockwise)� Do not overtighten the
screw against the seat�

5� Reinstall the plate, (4) screws
and the O-ring seal if removed�
