Re: How to check for a faulty FPR (Fuel Pressure Regulator) and replace it

Thanks for the excellent response! Actually I've only had the Seville for about 2000 miles. It was previously a granny-mobile, so I got it with very low milage ($3000 with 65k). Of course, due to the nature of its previous ownership, many fluids were in dire need of changing, and it appears from the very limited records I got with it that no work had been done on it... at all. And to add to that, the car sat undriven in a parking lot for several months before I came along and bought it.

In conclusion, if it can be cleaned, tuned, replaced, etc., I assume that it probably needs to be. I'll check out the FPR, and I'll definitely grab an O2 sensor if they're really that cheap. I'll also check out those tune-up threads you mentioned... Thanks!
