Trying to teach myself about FI. Bear with me! Does it matter where you check the fuel pump pressure i.e. before or after the pressure regulator? Secondly tell me if I got this right: 76 2.0 GC series engine; Fuel leaves the tank, flows thru fuel filter to pump where it is pumped to the passenger side fuel rail the over to the drivers side fuel rail. One branch on this fuel rail feeds the cold start valve while the other branch goes to the pressure regulator. If pressure exceeds appx 35psi then excess is bled off and routed back to the tank outlet/pump inlet junction??? Is this how it works???? Thirdly, does Pelican rent a gage? I took a water pressure gage (0-60lb) and checked pressure on outlet side of PRV. It pegged the gage so I'm thinking wrong gage/wrong side of PRV or pump is on steriods. Can ya hep me?
