i think either a fuel injector is faulty or something is not hooked up all the way.



if anything atleast you can just swap back to the 550's. this is why i haven't played with my car lately and just drove it less headaches
yeah unless the fuel pump isnt working right, or low voltage is getting to it?



by the numbers the pump should be fine, but ... sometimes the numbers don't represent reality if ya know what i mean



adding some instrumentation so you can know what the pressure and return flow is can't hurt, at least the peace of mind would be nice.

BJ i'm probably going to work at my parents house on it. I'm going to just put in the 550 back and see how it turns out. Maybe get that FPR anyways.

Didn't find anything out of place when i took out the manifold. All plugs were nicely pluged in and everthing checked out.



The strange things is when went to remove the injectors, i was like ****. I forgot to release the pressure first by disconnecting the fuel pump till it dies. I removed the injectors and no fuel came out, strange, specially after shutting of the car with in 10 mintues of shutting down.



Well going to a test drive soon. Will let you guys know.

Ah.... Yea thats is strange it should have had pressure with 10minutes after shutdown... So that could be either the pump or reg.
