This was the code that would show pending condition, but not throw the CEL. I’m going to rent the FPR tester from autozone tomorrow, I got to work the graveyard shift again tonight. The only visual clue is that, the fuel consumption gauge, doesn’t drop under load, it hovers around 10mpg. What PSI should I have? I do have a Bently manual also.

did you check the wires/engine harness or clips when you changed the cps?

it sounds like a problem mentioned in this thread
