Remove the Billet pump from the circuit. Run with only electric pump. Input line connected directly to the regulator. At the same time, remove airbox pressure from differential gauge to get absolute fuel pressure out of regulator.

2010 11 12 Was a total waste of a day. After arriving at the hanger, I went in to open the hanger door. When the hanger door had been opened I was greeted by the sight of a drooping rear bumper on the Ranger. Went to the droopy side and found this. R

Next request was for a compression check. 80/80, 80/80, 80/80, 79/80. No problem there. But while doing this I decided to check the plugs. Cylinder #3 plugs looked different. WHY?

Looks like that plug had been bumped some time during transport. Porcelain shows a crack. OK, replaced ALL the plugs. Engine still didn't run right.

Request for fuel pressure input to the fuel pressure regulator. Installed a fuel pressure sensor on the input to the regulator. So now we have differential pressure out of the regulator and pressure into the regulator.

Requests to check the fuel delivery system. Started with the gascolator. Any large quantity of crap in the gascolator? Here's the fuel from the gascolator in the test vessel. A tiny bit of black crud from who knows what. But not enough to cause a pro

Assembled everything. You can see the spacers fit to hold the master cylinders in alignment. Plumbing in place. The unit is about 1 1/2 in. taller than the old Jaymar. I'm wondering if it will fit or will I have to lower it in the mount? We'll see to
