    Fuel Pressure Regulator Replacement

    Will this work?
    My MPG is terrible and besides replacing the injectors this is the only thing that I think may be causing it. I don't want to break the bank if I replace it with OEM and turns out this wasn't the issue.

    Their website says it is a direct fit, so yes.

    Have you replaced your O2 sensor?

      A simple test of the rail pressure will tell if the FPR needs to be replaced. There are a number of things that can result in poor fuel economy. Some like having the injectors professionally cleaned, rebuilt, and flow tested or replacing the distributor, rotor, wires, and plugs are things that you do just based on age. The rest can be diagnosed and repaired as indicated.
      The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

        I've replaced everything in the ignition system that would be suspect except for the high dollar items like the injectors, fuel pump, and FPR. O2 was just changed two months ago.

          Check your coolant temp sensor.
