just found out me fuel pressure reg is leaking.

so got me a nice aermotive jobby with a gauge

so wondering what me fuel pres should be set at at idle

car has 803s
not sure what chip new one on way from stu
t3
-31

any ideas people????cheers

 

ask whoever wrote the chip - they're the only people who'd know for sure

 

if its msd chip they set there fuel pressure @3.5 bar atmosperic hope this helps

 

cheers have it set at 3.5 now

so should it read at 0 when the engine off?
as that what it showing!!!

seems to dip down when i rev the engine is this right?
might have to rewire me pump

 

yes it will drop to 0 with out the engine running as the pump will not be running constantly. when u plug the pipe back on it should drop to 3bar and the fuel pressure should raise on a 1:1 ratio with the boost so if ur pushing 2bar of boost the fuel pressure should raise to 5bar

 

I would do the pump rewire yesterday if not already done, killed many a cossie engine low pressure has, don't forget fan rewire too.
