Why does Toyota try to keep the fuel pressure XX Kpa above intake pressure.... I am curious as we are considering replacing the Fuel Pressure Regulator but the OEM FPR has a vacuum line going to the intake... Anyone have any insight?


thanks.

It will take him a moment to realize that he's about to make a 180 degree turn at speed, but you will be ready for it. Brace for the g's, and fast heel-toe work.

When you have maximum vacuum, your throttle is closed and your at idle. So your fuel pressure should be low. As you increase your throttle opening, the vacuum drops therefore you need to increase fuel pressure for your injectors. It gets to the point where you only have 15 kpa of vacuum your throttle should be wide open and your fuel pressure regulator should be fully off and your at maxium fuel pressure allowed by your fuel pump.

That makes sense functionally... but what is the benefit? what is the motivation for changing the fuel pressure?
