Default Question about fuel pressure

Should the fuel pressure stay constant in the fuel rail even after shutting the car off or should it drop slowly after shut down?

Default Re: Question about fuel pressure (NUckINg FuTS)

Bleed-off after shut down will happen. There is a check valve in the fuel pump that will hold pressure in the rails. Does it bleed off quickly or not,.... so what. You need not be concerned. The only problem a bleed-off may lead you to, is the fuel injectors. You can pinch the supply fuel line to see if it is the check valve, or a leaky injector.
