The fuel pressure regulator is located in a cast alloy housing which is attached to the rear right hand corner of the
cylinder head with three flanged bolts and sealed with a metal gasket. Two ports in the housing connect with ports
in the cylinder head for fuel pressure feed and return. A gauze filter is located in the pressure feed port in the
cylinder head, and filters the fuel before it reaches the injectors. The filter is a fit for life item but can be changed if
required. An ’O’ ring is located in a recess in the cylinder head and provides additional sealing for the pressure
feed port between the gauze filter, the cylinder head, and the housing.
A union and pipe is attached to the feed port in the housing and connects with a quick release coupling to the fuel
pressure feed pipe from the fuel pump. A second union and hose is located in the return port and provides the fuel
return connection to the fuel cooler. A third port provides location for the fuel temperature sensor, which is sealed
to the housing with a bonded seal. The fuel temperature sensor is used by the ECM for engine management.
