No....Just to be sure, you should have the meter before the elbow that goes to the impeller. Also, make sure the meter is facing the correct direction. The only reason I had to recalibrate the meter was because I installed bigger (42lb) injectors I ran for 2 months with 19lb injectors without a recal.
