Default Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator wont adjust

Hey I have an AEM fuel rail, Aeromotive 13109 Fuel pressure regulator, and -6AN Fuel Lines. I tried adjusting my fuel pressure but it stays at 20PSI. im trying to adjust it to 38-40PSI what would cause it not to adjust? or what may i be doing wrong?

I just loosen the jam nut and turn the allen screwand it maxes out.

THANKS

the vacuum fitting is locking the spring into place, remove the nipple and trim 3-4 threads off.

Make sure to back off the adjuster fully before reinstalling.

I covered this over a year ago.

Didn't the Aeromotive regulator come with different sized orifices? The orifices allow more or less fuel to bypass which in turn will create more or less fuel pressure. AEM FPR come with 3 different orifices I don;t see why the Aeromotive would not.
