Leaking Fuel Pressure Regulator (symptoms and testing)
In this video I’ll show how to perform an oxygen sensor response test, and how to inspect for a leaking fuel pressure regulator. The oxygen sensor response test demonstrated can be successfully applied to any oxygen or air/fuel ratio sensor, regardless of design or number of wires. This test is extremely valuable when diagnosing fuel trim issues, when the accuracy of the oxygen sensor is in question. Engine Performance Diagnostics chapter 5 page 4, and chapter 14 page 9 Symptoms - intermittent rough idle - intermittent stalling - long/extended cranking time - start/stall - poor gas mileage Fix - replace leaking fuel pressure regulator Tests shown - using scan data to monitor fuel trims - interpreting short and long term trims - performing an O2 response test - how to test for a leaking fuel pressure regulator Tools used - scan tool Playlist - (Chapters 4 and 5) Fuel Trim and Oxygen Sensor Testing https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLD2809EEC7BAAF989 Related videos - Chevy 4.8 Oxygen Sensor Test (fixed rich signal P0172, P0175) https://youtu.be/H6lY42u19VM - How to identify a bad oxygen sensor (signal fixed rich) https://youtu.be/ClCuoi3JxEI - System Too Rich P0172, P0175 from a blown O2 heater fuse (Jeep) https://youtu.be/SEuGtggZAvo - How to simulate a rich & lean O2 signal (PCM response testing) https://youtu.be/7MDtYzHl6AY?list=PLD2809EEC7BAAF989 For more information on this topic, I have written a “field manual” called Engine Performance Diagnostics which is available at www.scannerdanner.com as an eBook or paper book.
