> using a regulator I'd like to add a cent or two about fuel pressure regulators. I recently removed a regulator from my type 4 2000. The regulator is a flow through type that has a dial on the top that turns with detents and numbers 1 to 5 plus. I found that my engine was running lean at full power and I could not determine the cause. I finally removed the regulator and gave it a comparison to an unrestricted tube and decided that there was enough resistance to the flow of gas that I wanted to try the engine without the regulator. The engine worked well without the regulator and showed no tendency to run rich or lean. This is just a thought as you might be talking about an altogether different type of regulator.
