Fuel pressure regulator

Jbourgeois 3 April 2005 10:53:27
 I did finally end up changing the fuel pressure regulator and rerouting the
vacuum hoses, as suggested in this thread. There was water in the
regulator, causing a lean condition. The repair seems to have solved the
problem.

Let us know what you find out!
