Fuel pressure regulator

What's the best way to replace the diaphragm? Nobody around here sells the FPR as a whole assembly, but just the diaphragm and gaskets. Only way to get it as a whole assembly is to buy the TB whole.

How much pressure is the spring really under? Chilton's like to scare people and make them think it's like under 200 psi or something.

Re: Fuel pressure regulator

what exactly are you looking for? Just the regulator diaphragm? Or do you want the upper fuel meter cover assembly with regulator diaphragm, spring and cover all assemble?

Re: Fuel pressure regulator

I want it all assembled, but no one carries it. I might just go to the local pull-a-part and take a whole TBI.

If not, the only option around here is an FPR rebuild kit, with all gaskets, diaphragm and spring.

If all else fails, I could try the dealer, but how much would the complete assembly cost? Any estimates?
