Hi, just curious, the bit here with a pink circle around is a fuel pressure regulator isnt it??

However that one has a screw in the top of it, it appears that there is another pressure regulator on the fuel rail? (cant see from teh pic tho)

how come i would need 2 regulators? and does the adjustable one need readjusting/checking every so often, as it has been on the car all the time that i've had it which is over 2 years.

is it a job someone else will need to do or can i just set it to a set pressure by plumbing in a pressure gauge?


also on a diff note, what temp should my engine run at? as most of the time it is below 90 prob 87-88 degrees, is this good or bad??
