Hello guys,
Right got a sard adjustable fuel regulator all on gauge is iffy I think its reading high all the time even though its gel :/ telling me its on 6kp or what ever is it before fitting car was flat at around 3rpm all way to 7 now its fitted, I get it to around 5 then flat and don't pull I've watched gauge as I took it to each rpm and when it gets to 5 drops a bar and under load I expect that to be a lot more! Any ideas?

your fuel pressure should stay constant at around 4 bar depending on your level of tune on the engine. if it varying then either the regulator, gauge, filter or fuel pump is faulty.

if you dont have access to any test equipement for setting it up try it at differant pressures. turn it up 0.1bar at a time and see where it feels best. then after driving it for a week or so at this setting check the plug colours to seeif its burning right. sounds like you have to much fuel if its low down where it bogs. whats the tune on the rest of the engine?
