Turbo BS Thread

At idle, a vacuum is being applied to the FPR lowering the pressure. Once that vacuum is lifted, the pressure will go up.

 

It used to be 43-50psi at idle. This vid is from months back.

I think somethings going on now. Oh plus I believe vacuum is not there until your in the throttle because the vac line goes to the throttle body

 

Take the vacuum signal off the FPR and see what it reads. It should read 43 if not vacuum modulated. If it does not, then you may have an issue in tank.

 

I’m thinking something is going on with the pump. It is the original tank and who knows what kind of junk built up and then possibly loosened up when I was running e85.

 

I'm willing to bet, that one of the hose clamps in the tank is loose, letting pressure bypass into the tank. One reason i'm not too sure about the URD replacement pump for mine. Worm clamps SUCK

 

What’s best and size if you know. Later when I go in to the tank and check I would rather put something that won’t loosen up.

 

Honestly, I want to get something I can use AN fittings with. The desert is a brutal place lol

But for the URD setup, there's not much you can do, except tighten the fuck out of them(dont split the line, but you catch my drift) and hope for the best lol

 

I’ll have to drive the next 3 days to work and back with low fuel pressure I hope it doesn’t get any lower before resolving the issue but first thing Thursday I’ll be lifting the bed and pull the pump to check it

 

So, I dont know if any of you follow Desert racing, but my friend just won the M.O.R.E Duel in the Desert this weekend.

Turbo 3RZ for the WIN !
