My Speedflow Fuel Filter review has just focused on the positives and negatives of using this system. I have had many positive impressions of Speedflow for both my business and personal use over the years and I always look forward to the next opportunity to come across something new. The company has been around since 1989 but is still growing in size and popularity. It recently took its second largest market, Australia, by storm and it was then able to take its place as the biggest selling fuel and oil filtering system in the world.
The Speedflow fuel pressure regulator can be purchased from most car parts retailers and they are readily available on the internet as well. It is often sold with a pump or hose adaptor, which makes it very straightforward to fit. There are only two pieces of equipment that you require to use the system and these are a fuel pump and a hose/sump fitting.
You will need to make sure that the fuel pressure pump is of a decent capacity and it is advisable to purchase a pump that is rated to 40psi. With a pump rated to 40psi you can ensure that you get a constant flow of fuel for your vehicle.
Another benefit of using a speedflow fuel filter is that it is easy to install. It is pluged into the existing fuel line and as long as you follow the instructions on the packaging, you should not even know that they are there.
In my own experience, I have installed the system on more than one occasion and all that I required was a screwdriver and some holes for the hose and pump adapter to be plugged. You really do not need a truck or any type of power tools to fit it. If anything is damaged or broken during installation, simply replace the hose adaptor and you are good to go.
The Speed flow fuel delivery system uses two hardware devices and they are called the Speedcheck And Speedflow Fuel Injector. To start with, the Speedcheck is a spring-loaded pressure relief valve that holds the air in the fuel tank until an acceptable level has been achieved. Once this pressure is reached, the regulator opens up and the air is delivered into the combustion chamber. This is the primary injector. The regulator then injects the air into the combustion chamber with the help of the primary injectors.
The Speedflow Fuel Pump is designed so that the fuel pump can be adjusted during the operation of the vehicle. There are five different adjustments that can be made with the regulator itself, namely idle air time, engine speed, fuel pressure, ignition timing and boost control. These adjustments are all self-adjusting and allow you to fine tune the system to suit your specific needs.
The Speedflow Product line includes an idle air time sensor and an ethanol sensor. The sensor is designed to measure the time spent idle air times. This is measured in milliseconds and is a good way to determine the efficiency of the fuel pump. The ethanol sensor works in conjunction with the Speedflow fuel pump and will measure any ethanol molecules in the fuel at any given point in the idle cruise.
The other main innovation with the Speedflow Product line is the use of top feed injectors. Top feed injectors can be thought of as an upgrade for the standard 1x speed flow fuel filter. They are designed to inject fuel directly into the combustion chamber, rather than the fuel lines that are connected to the carburettor. This is a relatively new technology, but it has been found to be very efficient, as it allows for a larger volume of fuel to be fed into the combustion chamber.
