Changing back to FI, but a new Fuel Pressure regulator from Pelican. Installed it but didn't realize until this evening that the new regulator pressure is controlled by a bolt that is threaded through the center of the regulator, and a lock down nut holds the bolt in place. In other words, it is mechanically controlled, versus the pressure controlled regulator that I had.
Not sure if the new regulator is supposed to be that way (this part supersedes the old part) or if Pelican send me the wrong part. Just thought I'd throw the question out there tonight. Like an idiot I threw the box out so I don't know the part number of the new part. And wouldn't you know it, now that i've installed the part the part number is in an area that I can't see. No issues with pulling it out if needed. But thought the brain trust here may know off hand. |

My 1.8L regulator looks exactly like that. But that picture and the diagram from the book differ quite a bit. The fuel inlet and return are on the bottom portion of the body in the diagram, with the vacuum on the top portion of the body. In the picture one of the fuel lines exits the side of the body. The diagram was probably done that way for ease of illustrating how the reg works. But I'm pretty sure the function between diagram and picture is the same.
