If there is a leak in the threads, put some liquid teflon pipe sealer on them and tighten the jam nut.  That sealant doesn't set up where you can't adjust regulator.  JohnD

Here is a note from the Aeromotive web site.

  

. . . .This minute leakage, which is typical of all adjustable fuel pressure regulators, does not, in any

way, affect the performance of the regulator.

Maybe it is typical of all Aeromotive pressure regulators; but my TWM adjustable regulator is T’d off the line to controller B, and has worked fine for four years with no leakage.
