Replacing fuel lines this weekend...Front to back, side to side... The fuel lines come out in the middle of the firewall and both go to the right side...Then up through the tin and the pressure line is then routed all the way over to the pressure regulator on the left side of the engine bay... Why not bring the pressure out of the firewall and directly over to the left side of the Engine Bay, up through the tin and directly to the regulator... Any thoughts... 2-OH! |

It comes up on the right side so that it can go through the fuel rails before it goes to the pressure regulator. The regulator acts as a "choke" on the flow of fuel--it will regulate the pressure of all of the fuel system that is "upstream" of it. And also 'downstream" of the pump.
So the routing is: Fuel tank, fuel filter, fuel pump, fuel rails (both of them) and cold start valve, fuel pressure regulator, fuel tank. --DD |

McMark Beacuse then it spends more time on the "hot" side... Mar 12 2004, 08:28 PM URY914 Make sure you're using a high pressure hose.
