Fuel pressure regulator

Anyone changed one on a 97' RS 3.8L? Can I do it from under the hood or do I gotta take the dash off?

i thought the regulator was in the fuel rail

Im thinking that its burried at the back of the motor and is going to be a real pain in the ass to get at.

I think I see it way at the back of the fuel rail underneath the dash.. I cant be positive thats what im lookin' at though its too cramped.. Has anyone had ta change one?

I have never changed one but was looking at a pic of the engine and it looks like you have to remove the cowl grill to be able to get to it, There is going to be a firewall if you remove the dash so that won't help, you might also try putting the engine in reverse cutting the ignition and pulling the emergency braking to try and get engine tilt

if you remove the cowl work there's nothing but sheet metal that extends out as much as the cowl. its not gonna help you in getting to the back any better, but it might make it less of a squeeze. i would look into trying to get to it from underneath. i dont know where it is cause i dont have a 3.8 but it might work...

How do you remove FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR on a 97 camaro 3.8 V-6? I've found it and now i can't get the little b@$t@!d out.... any information will help..... Thanks

Hey.. welcome to AF! About your question.. you should've made a new thread instead of bringing one thats old.

And now.. just because I like using it..

damn, been gone for a month, nothings changed, and rally is still the queen post whore.

j/k i think.

sigs keep on getting better my man, but you need to ditch the monte and post the maro

I would ditch the monte and start putting up the Camaro but I cant get a decent picture of it since it's parked! If I could move it then yeah.. you'd see a Camaro instead of the Monte in my sig.

oh well, it is a chevy anyways. just wish they would have sutck with the rear wheel crossover that ended up setting the stage for the goat (gto)
