injector cleaner is part of my regular maintainance schedule. wasn't looking like injectors as it would hot start or lack of after only a couple minutes, not much time for leakdown BUT acted like vapor lock, hence holding down acc. pedal to have to get her to start. So I looked into causes of that symptom. What came up was check valve in fuel pump assembly and faulty regen valve allowing vapors into intake. Did a f.pressure test and had good initial pressures, running and residuals all checked out.(Much easier to test than the SC) With the regen valve being reasonably priced for the A/M part @$47 i took that gamble. BINGO swapped it out over weekend and 3 long 45 min runs with 20 minute stops no issues, drove to work today made a lunch run and moved it to wash bay to clean her up, alls well. 90-95 deg F here in La.so we're gonna call this one Fixed... for now. next project is replacing chain tensioners and cam chains and ramps
