Where the fuel line comes out of the bottom of the tank, there is a fine mesh screen. The fuel pressure regulator on a FI car is under the RH intake runners. The pressure should be 28-32 psi. There is a place to connect a pressure gage between the #3 & 4 injectors. -- Russ Wolfe '66 FB MT (It drove) '71 FB AT '65 Bug (not running) russw@classicvw.org http://www.classicvw.org ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
