INSTALLATION OF 5 BAR FUEL PRESSURE
REGULATOR ON 1.8T:
I observed Anthony from Greedspeed do my car. This
is best accomplished on a
cooled down car. You must open the gas cap to release any residual pressure. The regulator is located on
the top back of the engine just under the
edge of the plastic top cover. 3- A metal "C" clip holds the regulator in place from the left side. Use needle nose pliers and/or a screwdriver to pull the clip out - it's tight! 4- Pull up on the regulator, it might take some rocking to pop it out, it's double o-ringed. 5- Replace old with new, it will take some extra pressure to fully seat the regulator because of the double o-rings. A little oil on the o-rings may make it easier. 6- Replace the C clip from the left. 7- Replace the black vacuum line on the right side nipple. 8- Replace your gas cap. DONE! |
