> 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.
