I'd let just the pump run for awhile, to clear out the lines. This may work as long as you're actually getting flow. Have you added plenty of fresh gas to this tank? You can just run the pump with the key off by shorting across the fuel pump relay with a small jumper. > Anyway I tried to adjust my pressure regulator and it did not change > the pressure at all. The fuel pump is cutting off and on as it should. On our cars, the fuel pump is supposed to run continuously as long as the engine is running. > Here are my next steps... > I am going to trace the return lines and look for kinks, etc. Good idea, the blockage could be anywhere. You could try routing a temporary return line straight from the outlet of the regulator back to the tank, just in case the blockage is past the regulator. > Install another pressure regulator that is known to be good. > > Do you guys have any other advice here? > > Thanks, > Robb > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > Search old messages on the Web!
