Ok, I think my fuel pressure regulator is toast, but I can't find a rebuild kit for it even on BBK's site. Does anybody make a rebuild kit for them?:shrug:

Not to my knowledge... Just get a Kirban and call it a day. I'll ask GTR tomorrow if I get a chance.

Brother's Performance is BBK's retail store (same company). I checked and they don't have rebuild kits for the BBK 5.0L regulators.

But...

They do have used regulators in stock (My guess is they are rebuilt LOL).

Call (800)486-2681 Extension 455 and talk to "Ben." The used regulators show 79.99 on their website, but Ben has them for $41.99 in his system. :D :nice:

I heard back from GTR & they don't know of a rebuild kit... so I would follow coupe's advice or just get a Kirban.

I don't see why not. Call the guy. Think he said there's 17 in the system?

That's a good deal for an adj. FPR no matter what kind! :D

Thank me later. :nice:

Ok, it's not the FPR from what I can tell. She's still running a bit rich, and has a steady backfire through the exhaust at idle on the left bank. It looks like I'll be running a compression test tomorrow after work. I REALLY hope I don't have a broken valve spring.:banghead:

Could be a burned valve... or EGR issue? (if you still have it hooked up)??

Keep us posted! :nice:

:spit: Actually, I found the backfire problem. I got #5 and #6 crosswired when I changed the plugs here recently.:doh::tard:

Better to feel like a 'tard than to be replacing valve springs!
