I don't think your Volvo guy is correct. If you pinch the return line, the pressure in the fuel distributor will increase causing more resistance on the plunger, resulting in more effort needed to move the plunger causing a restriction in the system. Most of the performance hop-ups on this type of fuel injection system include lowering the fuel pressure, not increasing it (as is done now with EFI). > -----Original Message----- > From: Travis Goodwin [mailto:tgoodwin@xxxxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Friday, August 16, 2002 1:07 PM > To: 'DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' > Subject: RE: [DMCForum] Travis' Pressure regulator > > > Sorry about the confusion.
