#167891 the studs on the fuel rail are just to attach the plastic piece that 'corrals' all the fuel injector wires. It has nothing to do with fuel pressure. you can actually remove them to get a more clean look :thumb:

#167912 He's talking about the screw in the middle of the fuel pressure regulator.

Just clarifying, I don't know much of anything about the D-series engines...

#169065 i thought it was link kinda like a purge type regulator?
try it. open it up and prime your fuel pump,
it may squirt fuel everywhere.

#169176 it is called a fuel pulsation damper!! It is used to correct the vibrations caused from the fuel injectors. It has not part in ur fuel pressure
