The injectors can be tested by removing them from the manifold and cycling the pump. If they drip they are leaking. The regulator can be checked by removing the return to the tank. If there is any flow with the pump off it is leaking by. The pump is a bit more challenging. On the CIS vehicles the pump check valve was often replaceable. When those things vapor locked you better have a real good battery. Dennis |
