When you do that sort of work under the plenium, you should check, and see if the fule lines are cracked. This could be your problem. Second your shrader valve (where you check your fule pressure) could be leaking. Thats what mine does whenI even touch it. If its not your shrader valve, you might have to take off your plenium again. To check, there could be a pool of gas on the driver, sideI think.

Yea i am going to open her up again and check to see if it is in fact leaking. there was a pool of gas on the passenger side, and a trail all the way to the fpr. no signs of gas leaking from driver side. but anyways i hope everything is ok.

Ok I have another problem. i just installed a new fuel pressure regulator, and now after driving awhile on the road the check engine light comes on and the trucks starts sputtering and when you come to a stop it die's..... any clue as to what this could be. i was thinking a sensor, or the plugs needing to be changed...... i am not sure. Thanks for your help


*EDIT by swartlkk* - Combining multiple posts on this same subject. Please try to keep everything in one thread instead of spreading them around. All of these problems stem from the repair and as such they should be kept together. Thanks.
