My SUV rubs if I put gas in the throttle body. My fuel rail has pressure. No gas comes out of the fuel pressure regulator line if I remove it. Not sure if it should though.

Good afternoon.

There has to be specific pressure for the truck to run.

You need to check the actual pressure to be sure. Can you hear the pump run when you turn the key to on position?
