any ideas on fuel pressure i think ive read somewhere that 4psi on idle and 10 psi on boost is this about right? no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

Should be set 4-5 psi at idle. The fuel pressure will rise with the boost, so you only need to set it to this at idle.

above is right but you`ve got to check it stays 3 to 4psi above boost at high boost levels or you could end up with a flame thrower!!! Edited by minimark on 14th Mar, 2004. Everyone knows that instructions only have to be read if the thing doesn't work....

For a good and cheap fuel pressure gauge (amongst other things) go for a gunson lo-gauge. Does the job and more |
