Fuel Pressure Regulator Diagnosis + Understanding (HD!!)

[@joewahrerMotorcycleMan]

8 years later we are all still benefitting from your video...thanks!

[@EricGonzalez-bd1qd]

9 years later ;)

[@xmalcom8198]

I've been a mechanic for 35 or 40 years he's the only man that could explain to me why a fuel pressure regulator should be behind the fuel rail I always thought all my life the pressure regulator should be in front of the fuel rail thank you sir you are absolutely brilliant!

[@SchrodingersBox]

Thanks for the comment! Yes it makes sense when you “see” the mechanism doesn’t it!!

[@olenaerhardt7725]

If the Fuel Pressure Regulator is inside of the Fuel Filter (e.g. PTC PGF846 Fuel Filter), it will be in front of the Fuel Rail. So the fuel goes from the Fuel Tank through FPR+FF Assembly (Fuel Filter and Fuel Regulator in it inside) to the Fuel Rail. So you were correct for the Fuel Filters w/FR built inside.

[@mkwlsey79]

Truth!!!

[@mkwlsey79]

Truth!!!

[@danieldoll4721]

Best there is

[@brandonhedges719]

I know this is an older video but not only did it help me understand a FPR better but the entire process involving fuel travel in a vehicle. This helps troubleshooting tremendously.

[@jawadurrahman8659]

I am not a mechanic professional, but I love to listen to your lectures without any need..

[@itsjiraheta]

First off, I want to thank you for the taking the extensive time to explain this. I happen to bump into your video trying to diagnose an issue with my idle. You have made me a little bit smarter today. Thank you.

[@SchrodingersBox]

My pleasure! Thanks for watching

[@jodyroberts9027]

I am a do it yourselfer; and by no means a master mechanic and I think this channel should be a must for any body

[@chrish3720]

I knew all of this but, your explanations are so much better than mine that I often tell my customers to go home and watch your channel. They usually return as experts on the particular problem with their vehicle. It is fun to have them tell me how to repair their own car. Thanks man. An informed customer is a happy customer.

[@donkline8600]

As a former high school auto shop teacher, before the advent of fuel injection, I deeply appreciate you video. I tried to instill in my students that knowing how something works you can better determine what is wrong and fix the problem at it's source. Thank you very much for this video.

[@johnd942]

This was an impressive presentation all round. Video, rate of speaking, clarity, emphasis on key points, and logical steps could not have been better. In fact, as a retired automotive trades instructor I felt a bit jealous. So well done in every sense of the word! Cheers!

[@SchrodingersBox]

Wow, thanks for the compliment!!!

[@ronniewoods2155]

Totally agree - have been watching several videos and all are excellent.

[@garryhallmark7154]

Garry. I recommend this video to the people who want to know more about fuel efficient cars.

[@whocares2227]

@@SchrodingersBox So, I've been a automotive and heavy equipment mechanic for over 45 years and consider myself to be very good and always do top quality repairs. You have to have a good understanding of how things work to produce quality work and not just be a parts replacer. I think your explanation of the fuel system is top notch. Keep up the good work.

[@hp2179]

You forgot to drew the fuel filter for the dirty fuel.

[@abderrafikbelal4990]

8YEARS after, and it's always the best corse concerning fuel pressure regulator that i found it in youtube. many thank's

[@SchrodingersBox]

Thanks so much!! Yes between this one and the fuel trims video (also 8 yes old) those alone cover almost 70% of car issues right there.

[@stephen6945]

Hey Matt, you've made a huge impact on my understanding and overall approach in the past few months. Starting to feel way more confident in my diagnostic capabilities.

[@jogalong]

I salute you for the ability to explain things. Thank you!

[@theadventuresofbellaandjos6435]

Your videos are longs, but they worth gold every minute of it, knowledge is what make a man wise, thanks for sharing your videos, i being having a rich, and have change all the sensors you can think, and maybe this is where my problem is.

[@theadventuresofbellaandjos6435]

Update on my pressure regulator, tested it and the needle jump all the way to the max reading on my presure tester 100 psi, order a new pressure regulator, and readings are now 45 psi, problem fix, thanks again thanks to your video i fix my car, i didnt know that a bad pressure regulator can bring u this problem and alot more.

[@pbee6644]

Great, logical presentation. When I was in school the best teachers (especially math) taught you to think, reason & solve instead of memorize (or follow confusing, lengthy flow charts). As a retired tech (20 years ago) - actually we were still called 'mechanics,' I thank you for bringing me into the 21st century's fully computerized world. When I retired we saw few OBDII systems in private shops, so you really got me back into the analysis mode for which I'm grateful. I'm currently trying to resolve an intermittent problem- the worst kind- on my 4.6L '06 Grand Marquis (old guy's car) throwing trouble codes P0193, P0171 & P0174 while the car runs flawlessly- except for the illuminated check engine light. The pertinent freeze frame data is RFP @ 75.99 psi-which scares me- and LTFT @ 29.7% on both banks. After watching your above video & the 2 on understanding fuel trim, I'm going to retest concentrating on the P0193 which looks like the real problem area. But testing so far- especially after clearing codes and (temporarily) bypassing the pressure regulator- shows everything within normal specs @ idle, 2500 & 1500 rpm's. My inclination is to repeat the disconnected regulator tests, now that I better understand the systems, then block vacuum to the interior accessories & carry on from there. However, since the car runs so well and this being the elusive intermittent riddle, anything you care to contribute would be ever so much appreciated! Would you consider the RFP value dangerous (it's 39-40psi in all tests)?

[@pbee6644]

+Pat Bbb Here's some clarification on my post a day ago and after further testing. The high fuel trims in freeze frame given were from when codes P0171 & P0174 appeared. Currently only P0193 is coming up intermittently and the LTFT readings in that freeze frame are normal. In fact the lean fuel readings haven't reset codes since pulling the vacuum line from the FP sensor while testing the fuel pressures. The repeated tests now convince me the problem is/was a defective fuel pressure sensor, which on my vehicle is a sensor only (on the fuel rail), not the regulator. and I've replaced it. My assumption is the 75.99psi RFP is actually a low voltage measurement showing 'pressure' at the extreme high limit, but not true fuel pressure. Time will tell if my diagnosis is correct. Matt, I hope you'll see my posts and respond with some further input & info for my 'schooling,' especially the upper fuel psi limits. Also, where is the actual pressure regulator(s) in the 2006 Grand Marquis. I'm guessing it is the unit mounted on a bracket on the passenger side firewall with fuel supply lines in & out. But the out line goes to the throttle body, not either fuel rail. And is there another regulator/control in the gas tank as shown in the parts catalog?

[@cobraninetysix3883]

Great Video Matt! I have been working on cars and motorcycles for years and have taken automotive coursework, your videos certainly meet the mark. You have an ability to communicate the technical in a way that makes it easy to apply in the real world. My favorite is diagnosing fuel trims! Anyone who watches and waits just to call you on a mistake or slight error in communication obviously doesn't understand the purpose of your channel. Please keep em coming!

[@johnsoper7649]

for learning opportunities you present I am very thankful and grateful.

[@gordonfirth7254]

Hi, thank you so much.. this fixed my problem after I tried everything else. 10 minute job and no cost. My 1990 Foretravel Grand Villa 460 gas pusher had been sitting for some time and I made a 200 mile trip with to working so bad. The diaphragm in the FPR was stuck at the bottom,removing the vac hose made no difference in the rough idle so t sprayed penetrating oil in the vac hole on the unit and applied high vacuum with my pump and it pulled it loose. The engine instantly worked perfect. Without this video I would still I would still be lost. Thank you so much and I will be enjoying my trip back home because of you. :) Gordon Firth, Nova Scotia, Canada.

[@1chance4life76]

Gordon Firth nicely done and good advice for a quick fix on the FPR!

[@yarduengo]

Very well explained.I'm an RN, but I love to do mechanic DIY to my cars and my family. Good job explaining how the fuel system works.

[@filibertomorado740]

Thanks for an excellent explanation of the FPR, I now have a much better understanding of how it works. Being a complete novice, I now feel much more confident when discussing this with a professional mechanic. I will have the testing done because my Jeep sometimes has a hard time starting when it sits for a while. Keep up the excellent videos and excellent explanations; they're invaluable to us novices.

[@armanddeperdussin3897]

Excellent video! You took great care to explain the fuel pressure regulator -- and without a jiggling camera.

[@SchrodingersBox]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@alberthamilton5408]

I don't know how your channel came up on my feed, but, I am thankful that it did, Thanks again for another great video.

[@aaronrodden8121]

2024 and a 2012 Suburban later, we meet again Boss Man!! I COULD not remember how to find you or your videos and by the grace of GOD I came across this video!! I remembered that you teach not only how to replace parts but more importantly WHY to replace it, how to know its that part and an intimate knowledge of how said part works!! You are the mechanic/tech that can honestly say you are GREAT at what you do because you honestly KNOW what, where and why you are doing what you are!! This is knowledge that should be just as important to pass on and never let die as anything I have ever seen! This technically makes you a legend! At least, you should be! No B.S., nothing but just legendary!!

[@SchrodingersBox]

Hahaha thanks- you are too kind!!

[@briand9513]

Matt, your videos are very intelligently done. Easy to follow and understand. Thank you for sharing all your troubleshooting knowledge. I learned a TON from your fuel trim videos, and now have a much higher understanding of how trims work. Now working to put it all together with more of your videos -Brian

[@billsmith2212]

Matt : thanks for the lesson . I was driving my 1987 Chevy Celebrity 2.8L , it lost power and stalled . I pulled over and no restart . I had a strong gas odor . It wasn't White Castle . The gas was running out of the throttle body . I traced the vacuum line to the FPR . I put on a vacuum pump and it immediately pulled gas out of it . The diaphragm was ruptured . There is a vacuum junction on the throttle body . The FPR line is there . That's why the fuel ran out of it . The FPR is buried under the intake plenum and mounted between the fuel rails . It is not a simple replacement . I changed it and the car runs fine . Keep the lessons coming . Thanks !

[@franciscoperna7963]

Thank you so much Mat I am now one more of you fans, I have watch the fuel trim explanation you gave and I realize I been doing things THE HARD WAY all this time I love mechanic work. I started watching u-tube and I notice most every one check the fuel trim to diagnose the problem , so I check to see how it works and that's when I ran in to you . yep am a idiot lol but not any more thanks to you sir all of the sudden now every thing make sense. I cant wait to get back home to my shop pull out my foxwell 630 pro scanner and find out my low end power lost problem on my 2004 GMC. Coming out of a dead stop I have nothing but after she hit 1500 RPM HOLD ON TO YOUR SEAT because she comes a live. thanks again and god bless you.

[@lodhiautos9761]

Thanks for taking the time off your busy day to make such a nice video tutorial on the fuel regulator and the fuel trims.

[@lozanospain1]

Crystal clear explanation,you deserve half million of subscribers more,this channel is Gold . Keep it up with this helpful and interesting channel. Greetings from a Mechanic 👏.

[@Blutnase]

I once had a bad FPR leaking fuel through the diaphragm which I only stumbled across looking for vacuum leaks by sucking on the hose. Blech! The problematic symptoms varied between immediate start (one or two cranks) when hot, and extensive cranking when cold. These symptoms made sense after the fact, but I was incorrectly imagining the actual function of the FPR until this video. It did not occur to me that low vacuum meant higher pressure. My incorrect "assumptions" were compounded by my other misconception about vacuum under load! You are right -- now that I understand the proper functionality I am empowered to work on this system. Thank you for taking the time to share this!!

[@SchrodingersBox]

Yes I have seen this many a time. I usually diagnose it immediately with fduel trim analysis. It's especially common on theose GM 4.7 and 5.3L's- they leak internally making it really tough.

[@trealwilliams1563]

Man... I call you Mat-The-Genius... You know a little about a lot of everything!!!

[@johncooper7242]

this is a really excellent tutorial. Finally .....at last...after years of partial insight and despite having the Bosch manual and various other manuals, its the first time that I have completely understood this aspect of the fuel injection system operation. Once you appreciate exactly how the engine vacuum together with the FPR control the fuel rail pressure and delivery, engine performance then becomes a diagnostic tool , pinpointing fuel pressure and delivery issues. thank you

[@MrWolfsbmw]

Thank you for giving your time to explain in a way everyone can understand, it was generous of you. I'm about to cover fuel trims and engine management in level 3 in college and it helped me understand a bit more of what's actually happening to my car currently. A new regulator is on its way ;)

[@jameshollingsworth3214]

absolutely awesome presentation. replaced fuel pressure regulator and got vehicle to start but still running rich. I know where to start looking. Thank you!!!!!

[@SchrodingersBox]

Thank you! if vehicle is running rich you want to start with a fuel trim analysis at idle vs load. this will give you a better indication of the cause.

[@ignacioromero5014]

Every tid-bit of this - is stacking mental gold bars, Thank you... you are making a difference.

[@urnzwayzmoove]

[@milesghoover712]

Excellent explanation of how a fuel regulator works! Thanks and keep up the excellent tutorials!

[@jerbburleson1]

Thank you for these theory type videos. It really helps the occasional mechanic who can't really afford a good mechanic nor the diagnostic equipment. Imagine Beetle Bailey in the field, it is relatively important that he has some idea how to fix things.

[@SchrodingersBox]

Beetle Bailey ROTFLMAO!!!! now there is a reference I have seen before lol

[@LongLe-xd4jr]

Thanks for explains the operation and function of the fuel pressure regulator .

[@simonbelson4503]

Hi there from the UK. Thanks for an informative video...my mk 2 golf has the issue of fuel being sucked through the vacuum hose, I thought it was the FPR and watching your video has not only made my understanding of fuel pressure clearer, but confirmed my suspicions..thanks once more.

[@danieladgate5065]

Very educational...so much covered and it really allows understanding for the mechanics!!!

[@artienet]

Excellent Video! Well, as one saying goes.. " You Never Stop Learning".. It's unfortunate for me that after all the years I actually believed the higher idle would create more vacuum at the regulator.. lol.. Thanks for all the great info and video. It's Appreciated!

[@ghanimalkuwari5090]

Once again a flawless job in explaining complicated systems ...amazing !!!

[@royeutsey1]

Doing work on a 2001 Nissan Altima. I am a diy, just changed a fuel pump for the second time. Wanted to understand the fuel system more. Will watch again. Thank you

[@SchrodingersBox]

If you are changing a fuel pump twice within a year you are either misdiagnosing it, failing to catch a voltage drop or other electrical issue, or you are not cleaning out the fuel tank and replacing the filter before replacing the pump,

[@user-dx7gh8qi4o]

I really like your videos Matt! Your a great teacher, you should teach automotive. Don't even think about wasting time on the negative people's comments. They are jealous that you know what you are doing and you also have a very successful KZbin channel. I don't see them posting up videos of how to fix things.

[@electronpusher604]

The "understanding" point you make is so damn true. True in chemistry, math, physics, everything. I just started learning about cars a few months ago, and I can diagnose so many things already just by thinking about it. Such a shame the schools seem to push the opposite point of view.

[@rebel.mma.youtube]

Hello. The subaru wrx fuel injectors are in series. The regulator I think is before 3rd injector. My question is how does one know if fuel goes into the last injector if the regulator is befire the 3rd Injector? Hope my question makes sense

[@TheWalterHWhite]

Hey matt! love the channel and I very much appreciate the level of professionalism, knowledge, and comprehension you bring to the table. On spot with the understanding and diagnosis line. It's a shame that people would rather see how to fix something rather than why it needs to be fixed, why it failed, how it works in harmony with other systems, an how the actual component or system works. As you do, I am also always stressing the point of diagnosis and comprehension of automotive systems. I shake my head way too often when trying to argue with the wrench monkey on the finer points of thorough diagnosgics. Keep up the battle between the informed and the ever so oafish parts changers!

I worked on Jet Engines in the Air Force. It was far easier than working on cars. We had fantastic instruction and fantastic documentation to perform maintenance. Nothing was ever a mystery. Finding good instruction and good documentation on the plethora of different vehicles is much more difficult. Your explanation on this simple system has made my backyard project a snap. Thank you

[@SchrodingersBox]

I guess jet engines don’t have to pass emissions lol.... or maybe they do?? I am curious about that now that a i think about it!

[@MrSnapper1d]

That is very good explanation on fuel regulators.

[@mpt117]

I’m 5 minutes in, but I’m pretty sure this is the series I’ve been looking for, I’ve struggled to grasp some automotive concepts but your right. I’ve we can learn to understand the major components then we can learn to diagnose our own cars issues ourselves rather than taking pot shots. This will hopefully help me Fix my Prodrive v7 Subaru

[@SchrodingersBox]

The other series you are looking for is my fuel trim series- it's even better and more universal. I use fuel trim to even determine if fuel pressure is a viable possible variable

[@djgeo24]

Exelent video thank you so much, u are the best teacher ever.

[@spelunkerd]

With so many sensors in modern vehicles, it's refreshing to see a simple mechanical feedback loop, seemingly independent of electronic control.

[@SchrodingersBox]

This is a good point actually, I hadn't really though about it! It's about the only mechanical, non-electrically controlled component on a vehicle lol. Anything else- EGR, AIR, etc at minimum uses electric solenoids to open passages and allow vacuum but this is just direct and simple.

[@Sandbag1300]

Excellent video. My fuel pump regulator is built into the fuel pump but now I understand the concept of the regulator and more about how to think about troubleshooting in general. I played this video at 720P and did not notice the HD. The picture was visually very well defined, not fuzzy, as in the past several videos and I find myself focused more on content of the video

[@SchrodingersBox]

Yes I always have known you were more of a content guy anyway- but I have to admit, I think the HD really, really shows on the underhood scenes, and also my hair- of course ;-) Yes the diagnosis with an internal regulator is much harder to do, you are left with pretty much pinching fuel lines but the concept is the same. My trans am is also of that design so one day I will cover diagnosis of returnless and other more "advanced" systems, but they still depend on understand basic function.

[@billyr9840]

Schrodingers Box Matt, the only thing I see that needs improvement is when you show scenes of your scan tool/lap top , hard to see, blurry !

[@ricardomontez7093]

very good presentation., I need your input

[@teagar3]

GOOD Video - wish there more videos like this one. Should note, on most GM vehicles that if the diaphragm in the Fuel regulator is bad, and is leaking fuel into the vacuum line, the fuel regulator won't hold vacuum. A vacuum tester can be connected to the FR, if the diaphragm is leaking it won't hold vacuum. Vacuum tester is a tool which allows the user to apply vacuum to various components to check and see if they hold vacuum. They are available at harbor freight and most automotive stores.

that valve on the gauge is also for priming the tool, to eliminate the air in the hose for more accurate measures and dynamic fluid fluctuations if present. as air can be compressed is not desired in the system when testing for fluid pressure. same goes for oil pressure gauge too. very good tool and many thanks for the video!

[@rossjewell3576]

The best video ever. Learning so much. Keep up the amazing job 👍

[@rogerhassell3212]

Great video. I've always viewed the operation of the FPR as a way to maintain a fixed pressure differential between the fuel rail and the intake manifold (IM). Keeping the differential pressure constant means the amount of fuel delivered through the injectors is directly proportional to the applied pulse time, the time the injectors are open. At high IM vacuum, a lower rail pressure is needed, to maintain the target pressure differential so the FPR opens up more under the high vacuum and lets more fuel return to the tank, lowering rail pressure. At open throttle, more rail pressure is needed to maintain the target pressure differential. The reduced IM vacuum causes the FPR to restrict the fuel return path, thus increasing rail pressure.

[@masontymenson7955]

Great video MR MATT, personally I like the way how you explained and made it very simple and clear how to diagnose the problem with the fuel system and a void to replace unnecessary fuel system parts may not need it ,thank you very much
