ADVANCED SL3 INLINE
REGULATOR MAINTENANCE
This procedure is only required if you are fixing a
supercharging
SL3 inline regulator
(common symptoms
of supercharging are a very high velocity first shot and/
or large variances in shot to shot consistency).
Place a 3/32” hex key through the
adjuster top
section
(SEE FIGURE 16A)
, then insert a 1/8” hex key into
the bottom of the
adjuster screw
and carefully turn it
counter-clockwise until the two parts begin to unscrew
freely
(SEE FIGURE 16B)
. With your fingers fully
unscrew the two parts taking care not to lose any of
the internal components
(SEE FIGURE 16C)
.
Inside the
adjuster screw
C
you will find a
regulator
seal
A
,
purge poppet
and
spring
B
(together these
two form the purge poppet assembly
)
(SEE FIGURE
16D)
. Inspect and clean the
regulator seal
, turning it
over if one side appears excessively worn or damaged
or replace if necessary. Inspect and clean the
purge
poppet
or replace if necessary

.
Place the
purge poppet
and attached
spring
in the
central hole in the
regulator seal
, then insert these
parts into the
adjuster screw
(SEE FIGURE 16E)
.
With the
regulator seal
,
purge poppet
and
spring
installed back into the
adjuster screw
, replace the
adjuster
top
section
(SEE FIGURE 16F)
. Screw the
two parts tightly together using 1/8” and 3/32” hex
keys
(SEE FIGURE 16B)
. Refer to the ‘THE SL3
INLINE REGULATOR’ section on page 37 to re-assemble
the
SL3 inline regulator
.

If the Purge Poppet Assembly is removed for maintenance ensure
that is it re-installed correctly, failure to do so may seriously damage
the Etha solenoid valve.
