My truck is starting to run terrible. It sometimes feels like it is in a bind, causing me to down-shift all the way to third on occasion. It chugs and jumps, fuel economy is awful. I was told by a friend that this could be a fuel pressure regulator problem. I bought the part, but can't seem to find it. I also researched it and found out that it is on the fuel rail. Where exactly is that? The front of the motor? The back? Is it going into the motor or going out? Please help, scratching my head and not knowing what to do, Hollee
