RE: [T3] Bad fuel pressure reg!



Yes, same car and same engine, and same fuel lines.
That's possible, It was OK when I ran it the day after the trip so I wont
change it till it acts up again or try to adjust it first.

I wonder if others haven't had this problem and just don't know about it
though, the only symptom is starting a bit hard when warmed up and slightly
less gas mileage, the last one got even worse before I replaced it but Ill
keep an eye on this.

And maybe its just ME... ;-)

Any why just to YOU? 

Were both of these failures on the same car? Same engine?

If there was some kind of intermittent blockage in the return line to 
the tank (like a kinked hose, or something stuck in the hard line) 
that could make the pressure go up even if the regulator was okay.
