Default Fuel pressure regulator not comnected
Removed the vararam cai to clean the filter so so decided to clean the tb also amd I stumbled on what seems to be a fuel pressure regulator tube that's supposed to be connected to the intake.
Car runs well though the way it is.
Should I get a fitting and connect it?
