    m50 fuel rail without FPR?

    So I went to put the manifold together and I slipped the injectors into place and then noticed there was no fuel pressure regulator on the fuel rail. Very odd I thought. I have seen 2 other m50 rails and both had regulators on them. The diagram for realoem shows a pressure regulator. Any way to make it work, or anyone every heard of/seen it?

    yep, must be a 95 motor. i saw it with my first car. the fpr was actually at / near the e36 gas tank. i too, was perplexed. just add an adj. fpr on the fuel return hose. cheers, jason

      Make sure you plug the hole in the intake manifold that goes to the FPR if you dont use a factory FPR on the fuel rail.
      OBD2 cars had the FPR by the 3/2 valve on the underside of the car.

          its probably from an obd2 car, or the aformentioned 95. I'll probably just get another rail. the project has been pushed back another 2 weeks so I can wait on parts. Thanks
