If the pressure is still low then it must be one of the first two

I wondered about filter blockage bearing in mind some of the petrol in the tank could be two years old.


Where is the pressure regulator, and is there a take off point where I can attach a pressure gauge? I have one with several types of srcew connections including the schraeder valve.


Looks like I'll be going into the tank. What a complicated system but thanks to T-cut's diagram and the RAVE DVD I can now see how the supply system works.
