Abstract
A fuel pressure regulator has a multi-faceted extruded base that allows the outlet from the pressure regulator to be oriented in any of six different directions. A fuel body has a projecting snout and a fuel passage extending through the snout, and the inlet to the pressure regulator plugs directly onto the snout; the fuel passage thereby supplies fuel to the pressure regulator, and the pressure regulator thereby maintains the desired fuel pressure in the passage.
