    Default What the? fuel pressure problems 1JZGTE

    so i decided to give the supra a turn over assuming as she has been sitting there for nearly 2 weeks, not a happy chap to start in the cold, but starts none the less. moved her from the car port to the garage and left her to idle and warm up. when popped the bonnet i noticed the motor was running odd. had a look at the fuel pressure reg. WTF? never done that before..

    here is the vid of the reg. what could cause this?

    cheers
    If in doubt, drift her out! Steer from the rear! less traction,more action! simple!

    either dodgy pump or dodgy FPR

    or dodgy gauge

    check the voltage at the pump to begin. the guage should be fine because you can hear the idle drop as the pressure falls away. if the voltage is fine i'd be checking the fpr. may have a damaged diaphragm. what kind of fpr is it and what type of pump?

    If you remove the vac/pressure source to the FPR do you get the same effect?

    Well it might tell you if it is related to manifold vac or not...
