The side with the FP has the rail with three outlets, battery side gets the one with the plug.
The center outlet goes to the cold start valve.

If one has the screw in it, take it out and run the CSV line from it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

They are the same. Which ever one you use on the pass. side is hard to access because of the MPS. To test fuel pressure, you just disconnect the cold start line and put your pressure gauge on.

Yes. And even first start. It doesn't do anything at all unless it's truly cold (below 40 anyway). I don't have a CSV any more and my car starts fine at freezing temps.
