So I have been running lean for.... i dunno seems like forever. I've cleaned my maf twice, replaced it, and I checked all my hoses when I did my timing belt this last weekend and I can't figure out wth is going on. When I was putting in my boost gauge I noticed that my fuel pressure regulator hose pretty much crumbled in my hand..... is it possible that my problem isn't excess air getting in after the maf but infact not enough fuel getting into the engine? I'd love to vag my car and get some more details but I can't get the darn software to recognize my car. Well thats not true, I can get it to recognize the radio and the instrument cluster, but thats it.


any thoughts?

 

yea Id check your fuel lines and suck maybe a bad injector

 

Sounds like you may have found the problem. change all the vacume hoses that look like that one did, your car should run alot better.

 

yea lines crumbleing in your hand is never a good thing

 

listen your injectors with a screw driver see if they are working fine.

 

listen with a screw driver?? heh how do i do that?!?

Also, think its worth getting a new fuel pressure regulator? Whats the lifespan on those things?

 

Replace your vaccuum lines first man.

 

instead of changing the fpr, get a gauge first. it is cheaper and allow you to see the fuel psi. maybe fpr is just fine so no need to spend money on something already works fine.
