    Yeah that is ur regulator, there exy to replace for what they are, they are around hte 100 mark easy.

    Id check to see if u have any leaks around the injectors, i would be more inlcined to think the leak is there.

    Also if ur injectors arnt spraying right u will be badf eccon as its not a mist of fuel and dont ignite as good

    Put up a pic of it, i mite be able to help, but by logics, all you should hae to do is remove the old regulator and hook up the new adjustable one in its place

    But to get a right pressure you will have to get a guage, unless it has a guage on it to show its pressure

    ok guys so i figured out how to fit the adjustable FPR, now the gauge thats mounted to it will only go up to about 20 psi no matter how tight i wind it in... at the moment i just set it between 10 and 5 psi but shoudlnt i be able to adjusti t way up to like 40 psi if i wanted to?
