Pinch the fuel line where it leaves the regulater for the tank to check for low fuel pressure caused by the regulater.I guess it can get stuck the other way too. Not too common though. I havent theard of it on the list.I guess ,if I was going to test for a high fuel pressure,I would stop the fuel pump and see if the engine runs better as the fuel is used up in the lines and rails. That black box in the engine compartment has 2 relays.Take emout to check this.Finally as the fuel is all used up, it will not even rev .Like when you last ran out of gas(ha ha). |
