Frequently Asked Questions

FuelTech FAQ - Updated Draft

ORDERING, SHIPPING & RETURNS

How long does it take for my order to ship?
Processing times vary by product and current order volume. In-stock items typically ship within a few business days; made-to-order or backordered items (such as certain ECUs or complete packages) can take longer. You can check the status of your order anytime using our Order Status / tracking tool, or contact our team for a specific estimate on your order.
Can I cancel or change my order after I place it?
Once an order has shipped, all sales are final and changes cannot be made. If you need to cancel or modify an order before it ships, contact us as soon as possible — cancellations requested prior to shipment may be subject to a cancellation fee, so the sooner you reach out, the better.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, FuelTech ships to customers outside the U.S. International orders may be subject to additional customs duties, taxes, and longer transit times depending on destination. Contact our sales team for shipping options and estimated timelines to your country at sales@fueltech.net.
What is FuelTech's warranty policy?
All products manufactured by FuelTech are warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship for one year from the original purchase date, when purchased through an authorized reseller. The warranty covers the original owner and requires proof of purchase. It does not cover sensors or non-FuelTech-manufactured components, nor does it cover damage from shipping, accidents, improper installation, unauthorized repairs, misuse, fire, flood, or other events beyond FuelTech's control.
How do I request a warranty repair or send in a unit for service?
To have your warranty claim or repair request processed as quickly and efficiently as possible, please contact our Tech Support team directly to request an RMA #. Once received, we will send you an RMA Form to fill out with your RMA# attached with shipping instructions. The RMA # allows us to identify and track your products once they have been received by our technicians. This MUST BE INCLUDED with any products shipped to FuelTech for warranty or repair.

We recommend contacting Tech Support prior to submitting a Warranty Claim or Repair Request. If you have not already done so, please contact Tech Support regarding your issue before requesting an RMA #.
Will a warranty repair cost me anything?
If the issue is covered under warranty, FuelTech covers the cost of repair or replacement. If the unit is outside the warranty period or the issue isn't covered, repairs can still typically be arranged, but the customer is responsible for return shipping costs. Depending on the issue, you may receive a repaired unit, a new unit, or a refurbished unit of similar design.
Will I lose my tune files or logs if I send my ECU in for repair?
Possibly — please back up your maps and log files using FTManager before shipping your unit in for service, since FuelTech is not responsible for data lost during the repair process.
How can I contact FuelTech for support?
You can reach the support team by phone at 855-595-3835 (or 678-493-3835), by email at support@fueltech.net, through the "Send a Message" form on the Contact page, or via our Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram (@fueltechusa) channels.

SOFTWARE QUESTIONS

Where can I download the FTManager and FuelTech Vision software?
You can download both FTManager and FuelTech Vision from our Software page.
What kind of computer do I need to run FTManager?
Any Windows-based laptop will work. Higher-end models may load the software and open multiple logs faster, but any Windows-based laptop will function properly.
What kind of computer do I need to run FuelTech Vision?
FuelTech Vision has more specific system requirements than FTManager. At minimum, you'll need an Intel Core i5 (10th gen) or newer processor, Windows 10 (64-bit) or newer, 8GB of RAM (16GB recommended), 500MB of available storage space, and a Full HD (1080p) monitor or screen — a resolution of 1920x1080 or greater is recommended for the best experience. You'll also need one USB Type-C port (with Power Delivery or Thunderbolt) for communication and power to the FT700, or one USB 2.0 port for communication with the FT700 when power is supplied through the car battery on connectors A to D. An internet connection is required for your first login.

TRAINING & EDUCATION QUESTIONS

Does FuelTech offer any kind of training on their products and how to use them?
Yes! We offer advanced factory training sessions where customers can bring race cars for one-on-one training on the Mainline hub dyno. You can also check out our Technical Videos page for instructional content to help you get the most out of your FuelTech products.

ECU QUESTIONS

What is a FuelTech ECU?
A FuelTech ECU (Engine Control Unit) is a sophisticated electronic device designed to manage and optimize the performance of internal combustion and electric engines. It's compatible with 1-12 cylinder and 2-4 rotor engines. Key capabilities include engine management, tuning flexibility, data logging, boost control, traction control, advanced diagnostics, nitrous control, ignition control, fuel injection management, delay box integration, staging control, and shifting control.
How do I know which ECU is best for my application?
The biggest difference in any level of FuelTech ECU is the number of input and output channels. Start by listing the inputs (2-step button, oil pressure, engine temperature, driveshaft RPM) and outputs (fuel injectors, ignition coils, transbrake solenoids, fans, fuel pumps) your setup needs, and leave room for future expansion. For a full breakdown to help you choose the right ECU for your application, check out our ECU Buyer's Guide.
Is FuelTech approved in my class of racing?
We offer several specific software variations available for download through the FTManager software. Approved classes include Sportsman Box/No Box, NHRA Pro Mod variants, NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle, NHRA Mountain Motor Pro Stock, PDRA Mountain Motor Pro Stock, and NMCA 10,200 RPM Limiter.

BECOME A DEALER

How can I become a FuelTech dealer?
To qualify as a FuelTech dealer, your business should have an established presence in the automotive, motorsports, or powersports space, a physical storefront or professional online presence, technical staff capable of EFI support and installation, valid business documentation (business license and reseller certificate), and the ability to meet an annual minimum purchase commitment.

The application process has four steps: submit the Dealer Inquiry Form with your business details, our dealer team reviews it (typically within 3–5 business days), a FuelTech representative schedules a call to go over wholesale pricing and minimums, and once approved you'll get access to the dealer portal, pricing, and can place your initial inventory order.

Check out the complete process and apply here: Become a FuelTech Official Dealer. You can also reach the dealer team directly at dealers@fueltech.net or 678-493-3835 (Monday–Friday, 8:30am–5:30pm EST).

Do you have a sponsorship program?
Yes, email sponsorship@fueltech.net to get to know all the details.

CAREERS

Can I work at FuelTech?
Yes! FuelTech is a rapidly growing, fast-paced company always looking to add talented people to our team. We hire across roles including sales, marketing/media, and motorsports technical support, among others.
How do I apply for a position at FuelTech?
