I just installed an Aeromotive AFPR today. It runs fine but i noticed i have no fuel pressure the second i shot the car off. It holds no pressure with the motor off. Is this AFPR built to do this? It held pressure with the stock FPR.
The fuel pump only runs for 2sec after the key goes On so the FPR should not leak down quickly lest the fuel rail loses it's prime before you can start the engine.
Just got this Email back from Aeromotive tech support.
"Tim,
The Aeromotive regulator is optimized for performance when the engine is running. We don’t employ check mechanisms required to be installed in OE regulators, necessary to meet EPA requirements to reduce cranking emissions, due to their negative impact on optimum fuel pressure control during engine operation.
In other words, it’s normal. Have a happy holiday Tim and thanks for choosing Aeromotive!"
