Re: 05 c/k fuel pressure regulator

If you got lean on 1 and 2 either you have an upstream vacuum leak effecting both, or your fuel pump is probably on its way out. It isn't very common for the regulators to stick open and drop the pressure that much.

Spray some brake kleen, carb cleaner, etc around the intake and throttle body area. It is sometimes hard to diagnose leaks under the intake, as they have foam blocking at the front and back between the valley and the intake. May clean the maf sensor off too.
