Alright guys its been awhile since ive been on here my son was born 5 months ago so ive been pretty busy! I was having concerns about my fuel pressure so i took a few readings:
Idle: 15psi
Regular acceleration: 20psi
Hard acceleration:20psi
WFO: 23psi
Cruising at 70mph: 20psi
So I did the bb mod and just got readings:
idle: 20psi
Regular acceleration: 80psi
Hard acceleration: 80psi
WFO: 80psi
Cruising at 70mph: 80psi
now when I let off the throttle at 60+mph it maxes the gauge out at 100psi and hangs there until i am back on the throttle or my speed drops below 50-55. I cleaned the screen and its a new fuel filter. Any insight or comments or advice would be appreviated!

 

100 is a bit hi. Maybe you had something keeping the Regulator open and now that it closes you have too much pressure. Remove BlackBerry and take readings again.

 

I just took it out, havent taken readings again yet, i might be going to a good friends house to get a known good fpr from him to try that if it doesnt change for the better

 

Now its 20psi at idle and everything else is 50psi

 

Still low. "Normal" fuel pressure range is 40 - 80 PSI at idle.

 

Thats what I thought, in a few weeks ill be getting a different fpr to swap and hopefully that will do the trick, unless there is something im missing, the lift pump is pretty new as well

 

Just pull the FPR apart clean and reseal it

 

When you remove the FPR for cleaning, make sure you don't drop the o-rings into the engine valley.

I didn't realize mine had fallen out. I had a huge fuel "leak" at the FPR. Fuel accumulated so deep, I had to use my angled pick and go "fishing" for the missing o-ring in the "pond" of fuel. After 20 minutes of scraping the valley, I landed the o-ring and all was well. I now keep "spare" o-rings in the garage/toolbox/break-down box, just in case.
