After haveing trouble with fuel pressure, i got a new malpassi fuel pressure regulator from MC-Xpress(turbo sled) that was supposed to fix my pressure problem. I was at around 2bar before i mounted the regulator.
The regulator is "adjustable" between 2-4bars, and after installing it i had 2.6bar. I adjusteded quite a bit, and only got 3.1 bar and at this point the regulator is at MAX.

I wrote to mcx and the told me that the regulator was already configured for 3.2 bar and that something else must be wrong, probably my pump.

Can some of you that have a qlue what might be wrong with the pump, or what might be leaking please give me some reply before i go to the garage to night to look for a needle in a haystack?

Test your pump.With pressure guage hooked up if return is pinched it should peg the gauge.Only do this for a instant since test can ruin guage.
 
Found another testing gauge, not as expencive as the one i have been useing to test, and damn, huge difference between the two.

Put the regulator back where the guy at mcx had put it and i got my 3.3 bars :)

Thoug now i'm not sure if there was anything wrong with my old regulator :o|


Sled to the dealer to day, fix broken link and then try the setup...

Thanx for the help.
