This is Part 2 of a model-specific five-part series about how to install a FASS Platinum fuel system.

Please find the links to Part 1, Part 3, Part 4, and Part 5 here.

The steps presented here in Part 2 are ONLY to be used as a guideline, as your application may be different.
Use thread tape or pipe sealant on ALL male pipe threads, do not use on male flared AN fittings.
Remove primary fuel and/or water separator. If primary filter is part of the fuel pump, ignore this step.

ONLY if a 90° fitting is to be used, follow these steps: Remove 4 bolts holding upside-down T Block pump assembly to the FASS filter base. Pay attention to the O-rings and ball. Remove fuel manifold and assemble 90° fitting directing it in the correct direction. Reassemble fuel manifold then pump assembly to FASS filter base, seating all O-rings & the ball in their proper place. Torque to 110 in./lbs.

Attach BR-2001 to back of system using the spacers and 1/4" bolts. Use the 2 shortest on the system base.
Position system where it will be mounted. Mark the 4 mounting points using the template located in the table of contents. Prior holes may be used. Drill these marked locations with a 13/32 bit.
Prior to installing pump, connect wire harness and turn on pump. Spray liberal amount of WD-40 or similar lube into water separator nipple. This wets the Gerotor and allows for easier initial priming. Assemble to frame using the (4) 3/8" bolts & flange nuts placing the RS-1001 between the frame and bracket.
Apply motor oil to O-rings located on filters. Attach to system and torque appropriately.
