Hi, fellow Tiico converts,
My fuel pressure regulator did what everyone else's did today, that is
start spraying fuel all over the engine bay. The stupid rubber cap split on
2 sides. Luckily, I was poking around in the engine bay today. That's when
I noticed my back seat getting damp from fuel. Crap! Stinky car for a
while. Most of it fell on some plastic, so it didn't soak in. Lucky me.
I put an even worse rubber cap on, clamped it and drove quickly to my
FLAPS (which now stands for Florida Auto Parts Store). Got the
injector-strength hose & clamps. Drove quickly back home. The crappy little
rubber cap I put on exploded as soon as I pulled on it. Hose, clamps, and a
bolt, and I'm back in business.
I should have listened, and taken care of it before it blew up, but I
didn't. Others, take heed!
