Hello everyone,

I bought a pressure regulator and have a question on how to install a fuel return line on it. This is the regulator https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-g3032. It has an inlet line with two outlet lines, I was wondering if I could connect one outlet to the carburetor and the other goes back to the gas tank. Is this correct?

Thanks for the help!

Doesn't it come with destructions? EDIT "no" to your question in general.

in short "no"
slightly less short, "heck no"

the reason you have two ports is because you can use that regulator to run a dual carb setup
or if you wanted to, you could run a double pumper and run one line into each bowl from the regulator

what you can NOT do, is run that line back to your tank, because both sides have the same pressure, and since the fuel will take the path of least resistance it will run right back into the tank, giving you hardly any pressure at the carb

a regulator like the holley 12-803BP would work for what you want to do
 
You have the wrong regulator. I just ran my return fuel system. I used the holley 12-803BP.

That's a non return regulator according to the spec sheet on it. Two ports are outlets neither is a return
