Fuel pressure regulator
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi guys

I think I have found out why my engine keeps flooding.

My regulator will not adjust and just sits at 11psi! I can screw it in and out but it still stays the same.

Am I right in thinking screwing in reduces the psi and vice versa?

If the pressure wont drop either the reg's buggered or there is a restriction in your fuel return {ie, to small or blocked}
What size return are you using, & where does it go into the tank ?

8mm return Phil.

Just got another FPR off john to try out

Took your advice on the return being blocked and you are correct. Must have been a air lock or a small bit of dirt, thanks Phil!

No worries, glad you sorted it mate.

Its on the RR today mate. Took it out last night and it runs nice but goes a little lean around 60-70 if you floor it.

Cool, let us all know how it goes on Nick

Mine booked for tomorrow at 10:15.

Be interesting to see the comparison, what boost are you running.

Dont forget to post the graph.

Only 7psi at the moment mate.

Hopefully they will print me a graph off!

Yeah i think the main difference is my DP is larger and my intercooler is smaller i think.

GOOD LUCK!!!!
