Title: No fuel pressure!!
Post by: Forzfed on June 13 2015, 05:55:06 PM: Had to get my car towed home today. Ran great when I left. Parked and when I went to leave it was sputtering and farting. Looked at my fuel pressure and it was only 20 psi. So I went to turn it up and nothing and at the same time I pulled my feedback port out of the regulator. Get it home and changed the regulator. I have fuel at rail but there is no pressure. Car almost wants to start. I can hear the pump running. I'm wondering if I lost the sock on the pump or collapsed the fuel filter?

So what do you smart guys think?

Yeah, I was thinking that I just didn't want to drop the tank today. Too much things to do for the next 2 weeks, so I guess I'll let it sit till then. Will update.
