Share Posted 23/12/20 11:47 PM Posted 23/12/20 11:47 PM Share So I was having dramas with fuel pressure being too high and too low, fuel smell, car misfiring, etc, etc, Started trouble shooting. Pulled out the FPR and found it full of metal filings some appear to be brass or copper??? I have a surge tank with an 044 in it. I'm aware the fuel rail can rust but where the hell is the copper looking filings coming from? Is it the 044. That's all I can think of? Link to post Share on other sites

Share Posted 24/12/20 06:27 AM Posted 24/12/20 06:27 AM Share Have to be the 044, pull the filter though, and see if it's blocked as well could the intank pump. Basically the whole fuel system is coming out for a clean though. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Share Posted 02/01/21 11:19 PM Posted 02/01/21 11:19 PM Share So just a follow up. Yes I cleaned everything out. I replaced the main fuel filter and there was no filings so it was obviously coming from the pump on the surge tank. I replaced that pump and all problems seem to now be fixed. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
