Radium Split Flow Flex Fuel Sensor Adaptor
Flex fuel sensors measure ethanol content. They can be used in the FPR return line. But for improved accuracy and faster response times, the sensor should be plumbed upstream of the fuel injectors in the feed line. In this case, expect to see up to a ~10psi pressure drop if multiple pumps are used with a high-powered engine.
The Radium Engineering adapter splits the fuel flow into an auxiliary passage parallel to the sensor. Because the flex fuel sensor is directly inline with the fuel flow path, it will read the incoming ethanol content at high and low engine demands. Traditionally this additional flow path could be accomplished with hose and y-adapter fittings. However, the Radium Split-Flow Flex Fuel Sensor Adapter is less complicated, considerably compact, and provides a mounting solution for the popular GM 13577429 flex fuel sensor.
Unique end port adapter fittings can be purchased separately.
Features:
- 4pc billet 6061 aluminum construction
- Black anodized and laser engraved
- 10AN (5/8") equivalent flow rate
- Can be used on fuel feed or return line
- 8 double Viton O-rings (primary and backup)
- Stainless steel metric hardware
SENSOR COMPATIBILITY
The Radium Engineering Split-Flow Flex Fuel Adapter was designed to be compatible with multiple sensors, as described below.
1. GM P/N: 13577429
Compatible with included mount (shown below).
2. GM P/N: 13577379
This sensor already has 3 useable mounting holes. The provided mount cannot be used.
3. GM P/N: 13577394
This sensor already has 3 useable mounting holes. The provided mount cannot be used. For assembly, this sensor (shown above) requires a minor modification described in the instructions.
