13B. SUPPLEMENTARY FUEL INJECTION COMPUTER (SFIC) AND RELATED
SYSTEM (1996 Dakota/1996-99 Ram only)
A. Using the four supplied #8 x 1/2" screws,
attach the fuel rail mounting tabs to the supple-
mentary fuel rail in the orientation shown (see
Figure 13B-a) . Use thread locking compound
on the bolt threads for safety.
B. Lightly oil the O-rings on both ends of the
supplied fuel injectors. Install one each of the
supplied injector retainers onto each injector
into the full circle groove on the end of each
injector. Carefully insert the two injectors into
the discharge plenum with the injector connec-
tors pointing down and out (see
Fig ure 13B-d ).
Make sure that the injectors are inserted straight
and are seated firmly into the plenum.
C. Slide the fuel rail onto the installed fuel injec-
tors. Slowly work the rail over the O-rings
being careful not to dislodge or unseat them.
Finish mounting the rail to the plenum using
the two supplied fuel rail spacers and 1/4" x
2-3/8" bolts. Use a thread locking compound
on the bolt threads for safety. Make sure that
the injectors are seated properly.
D. Thread the supplied -6 fittings with O-rings into
both ends of the fuel rail. Use light oil on the O-
rings. Do not overtighten fittings.
E. Attach the supplied Vortech fuel rail inlet to the
front of the rail, such that the line is pointing
straight down.
F. Thread the 1/4” NPT x 90
°
fitting into fuel rail
adapter fitting using a small amount of Teflon
paste on the pipe threads. Do not get any paste
on the inside of the fuel fitting. Attach one of the
braided hose ends to the 90
°
fitting on the rail
and loosely connect the other end to the back
of the Vortech fuel rail (see
Figure 13B-b ).
G. Raise the spring clip, located on the driver’s
side factory fuel rail, and gently remove the
fuel line. Rotate the fuel line 90
°
, so it is
pointing up, and connect it to the spring-lock
fitting on the Vortech fuel rail inlet line. Insert
the Vortech fuel rail outlet line into the factory
fuel rail and secure it with the spring clip.
Tighten the fuel line on the back of the Vortech
fuel rail.
