Hello guys,

I'm actually looking for some info about the pressure valves on the fuel filter of my 2.0 Coupé.
There is a screw on top of the filter with which one can regulate the fuel pressure,but I can't find anything about it's function in the "Specifications and features" manual.
Can anybody help?

Thank's a lot in advance!

The pressure regulator is for: regulating the fuel pressure - by turning the screw.
Therefore you need to have an (temporarely9 installed) instrument to show you the current fuel pressure, to be put in the fuel line after the pressure regulator.
In the manual the fuel pressure is said to be 0,23 psi, so you should turn the screw until this pressure is reached.

I read the text above and I think the correct pressure is 0,23 Bar (not psi)
