Fuel Pressure Regulator

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2003 GMC Yukon XL, 2003 GMC Sierra, 2003 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2003 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2003 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Fuel pressure regulator is a diaphragm-operated relief valve with injector pressure on one side and manifold pressure (vacuum) on the other. Pressure regulator maintains a pressure of 55-62 psi (385-425 kPa) under all operating conditions. Pressure regulator compensates for engine load by increasing fuel pressure when low manifold vacuum is experienced.
