Default You're in S.F. ? The weather's ALWAYS crappy there....
I'm in El Cerrito/Berkeley and it's only a touch warmer here. I'm already gearing up for the cold, cold summer..... sigh.

Default Where is that bad boy ? The fuel pressure regulator I mean....
I'd love to check out mine... but, how do I test it? Or is it better to simply replace ?

The FPR is not located under the seat if that is what you are asking.
