Default Fuel Regulators install

1984 16V US.
Before I tighten up my 2 new Fuel Regulators, and Fuel Damper I need to verify that they are not directional ..... I don't think they are, (there are no markings on them), but I could use some input from you pro's out there.

Thanks
Bill

Are you referring to the two connections that stick out the sides? I don't think those matter which way they point.

you should have 2 dampers and one FPR.
the dampers go
one in the front center and.
one on the driver side rear.

FPR goes to the RR fuel rail.

Orientation doesnt matter on any of these,
so long as you have the inlet and outlets positioned like the originals

Note use some anti seize on the cap nuts threads and its shoulder,
this so you can take them apart again.

NOTE dont super tighten the cap nuts as they can force the ball seat into the new parts and distort the fittings

Stan, I thought it was two FPR and one damper, where the damper goes in the front and the two FPRs go in the rear?

Stan.... I thought that the one in the front center (by the waterbridge) was the damper, And the 2 at the back of the engine (left and right side) were the regulators.

Im just making sure that there is not a specific way the side connectors point... You can flip it 180 and it will still hook up the same
