In the case of the models manufactured before 1997, the fuel pressure regulator is attached to the
Fuel Rail. Starting with taking the fuel pressure off and loosening the cable of the negative terminal of the battery. Then unscrew the vacuum hose of regulator and put a metal container or a shop towel below the fuel return hose. Slide the clamp along the hose and pull out the fuel return hose off the regulator. Take off the pressure regulator mounting bolts and disconnect the pressure regulator to fuel rail. Install the pressure regulator on the fuels rail using a new O-ring, and it goes in the opposite order of how it was taken off. In models between 1999 and 2005 fuel pressure regulator is mounted on the
Fuel Pump/fuel level sending unit. Verbeek: Disconnect the fuel level sending unit/fuel pump, the hose off the pressure regulator, the retaining bolt of the regulator and remove the regulator with installation being the opposite. In all models since 2006, the fuel pressure regulator is an inseparable part of the fuel pump/fuel level sending unit. In case of the regulator defect, it will require changing the whole fuel pump assembly. Begin by disconnection of the fuel pump/fuel level sending unit followed by replacement by the new fuel pump unit, fuel level sending unit and finish the process in the same reverse order.
