fuel psi question

[#2875]

i need help on something. why would the stock bosch regulator read 50 psi base (about 43 psi at idle)? if i put an afpr in and take it back to where it is supposed to be it runs like shit and lean. i have checked with 2 guages.

well then turn it up to the point where it is no longer lean :2cents:

 

[#2875]

it's already there. i just want to know why my pressure is so much higher than everyone else.

dirty injectors, clogged fuel filter, dying fuel pump, kink in feed line? Or maybe you are maxing out the DC in the stock injectors, and need the fuel pressure higher to cure lean condition.

kink in line is possible but i haven't found one yet. injectors were just cleaned by marren. fuel pump and filter are both new. todd at sytychips told me there is no way i am even close to maxing out the injectors since i only have light mods and vortecs.
