BG regulator

brent flynn · 05-25-2013, 10:02 PM

I have a BG 2 port regulator that wont adjust, it goes to 15lb and i cant get it down to 8 or so... is there a fix for it? OR is it worth messing with? THanks

Take the regulator and throw it in the garbage. Years ago I ordered a BG regulator and it did the same thing. Summit replaced it and it did the same thing. Sent it back again. Third time, same thing.

Barry Grant was good at marketing. Not so good in the quality control department...

I've had one on my car for years, never had a problem (knock on wood). They do require a special inlet fitting that is ported on the regulator side.

I may have the wrong fitting...im not sure what its supposed to look like...the one i was using, looked like a normal fitting...
