New Fuel filter installed, have been told to try replacing Fuel presure regulator prior to repalcing fuel pump. Can't seem to find it? Wher to look and what does it look like?

It is on the fuel rail, but before replacing anything, check the fuel pump pressure if you haven't. Also, if you feel the regulator may be the problem, check the pressure at the fuel filter. That way you will see exactly what the pump is producing.

Let me know what you find, or if you have any questions.
