I remember someone mention it to me in the past. Thanks for the correction, something to check on mine aswell. Maybe there is a pressure problem at that point. If you have any luck let me know as I think we are working to the same solution on this one as I've got the same prob. Did you have gushing...

Its adjustable by an allen key fitting allowing the metering plate to lift and drop by a greater amount thus more fuel to the injectors under load.

The flow and return are both indicated by small arrows on the metering... You can't really get them wrong. The car actually runs if we release the pressure thats built back up. Basically the pressure is pushing the plunger up, thus the metering plate down... the engine tries to draw air but can't l...
