Flysilly Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Hello - pretty sure my fuel pressure regulator is bad. But I can't find it! Where is it located? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Reach around the back of the upper intake manifold and you'll find a vacuum line leading down to the fuel pressure regulator. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpecialWarr Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Bring a mirror because you can't see it from anywhere except by removing the upper intake plenum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fast_eddy Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Far back right corner of the fuel rail. If you take the intake plenum off, take a pic for me! Trying to make sure I have these injectors connected in the right order right now on the drivers side... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gustycrosswinds Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 is it possible to remove the regulator without taking off the intake manifold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Its possible, just notfun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Easier to just remove the plenum. It isn't that hard and your hands will thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gustycrosswinds Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 has anyone verified if the fuel regulators on the 3.0 are different psi than the 3.3? i am looking up some parts on rockauto and they say the regulator is good from 1990-2000 for the pathfinder, which would cover both engines?

adamzan Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I'm pretty sure they are the same for the VG30 and 33. You can also check nissan part numbers at courtesyparts.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Can't say if they will fit one another but I can say the pressure should be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gustycrosswinds Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 yes that is a good point, the inlets could be different sizes. Is there an aftermarket brand you like to go with? I have a 3.0L engine, i want to get something made well and with a good warranty so I don't have to repeat the process if a poor quality part fails early. i can only find oem nissan brand for the 3.3L.

gamellott Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 If it's available, Beck Arnley parts are typically OEM parts re-packaged. You get what you pay for, but Shop around and compare apples to apples. When I was replacing the head gaskets on mine, NAPA sold the exact same Head Set as Rock for about $100 more.

adamzan Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 The only beck arnley part I had a bad experience with was the wd21 cooling temp sender. I went through 3 of them from rock auto before I went to nissan and bought an oem one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamellott Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Looking at Rock, The Standard or Beck Arnley would be my go-to parts. I find it interesting that they are the exact same price. Side story: When I got the new injectors for mine, I went with Beck Arnley and they appeared to be the exact same as the ones I pulled out. I have no reason to believe that they were ever replaced before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headpeace Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Would a faulty fuel pressure regulator cause hard starting? But then run fine once started? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 It could but usually only when warm. Have you tested the fuel pressure with a gauge? I also had a bad coolant temp sensor cause mine to have hard starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
