…Wassup guys, just wondering if one has replaces a ‘FPR’…before, i jus had gotten my gas tank replaced, becuase it had a leak at the top where the gas pipe goes into the tank (crack gasket)…and ever since then after i been driving for a good 2minutes, my car would LAG, i figured it was all the gunk from the gas tank i had gotten from the junk yard…so immediatly i replaced the fuel filter, i notice it did not fix the problem…i was told by a mechanic it can be the Fuel pressure regulator…the funny thing is…after the car has been parked for a good 10minutes (not running)…and i jump back in the car, its FULL POWER for 30seconds - 50seconds…can someone please try to help me fix this problem…i check my spark plugs…etc…it can only be ignition, air or fuel…im almost postive its ‘fuel’ becuase before i got them to put in the gas tank …it has NEVER done this before…it wud take me 20seonds plus to reach 100km…and i checked my fuel injectors…thanks guys ---

Isn’t this technical? I agree on the pump diagnosis. ---
