trouble installing afpr help!

[Sy777]

I bought an accufab afpr from detroit turbo.I took the stock one off and went to install the new one and I can not get the allen head bolt closest to the front of the truck to start. Does the new regulator require longer bolts? The regulator is fully seated. Help!

No, I have the exact one and it requires the stock allens.

To make sure it is fully seated, lube the o ring with something life Klonz or something like that. You slide the allens in from the side, not neccessarly "head on."

It can actually be a PITA with the EGR and upper intake on...remove those, and the job is 100% easier...you'll be sure to not have any leaks then as well.

Keep trying, you'll get it. It can be a pain, i know what you are talking about, but no other allens needed.
