My fuel pressure regulator hose came off while driving dont no how long its been off for maybe about a week or so, i ziptied it down so it should be good now but how bad is this for your car because the gas can mix with the oil, i know i should do an oil change but i have no time how bad is this?
 
What hose on the FPR (return line/vacuum) will allow the gas to mix with the oil? If the return line came off you'd have gas everywhere, if the vac line came off you would be without a 1:1 ratio of fuel pressure/boost and would risk running lean in high boost conditions. Perhaps there is something i am missing here... :confused:
 
no you hit the nail on the head.



there is nothing wrong now that you reattached it. the only thing is that you lacked proper fuel delivery because the FPR didnt raise with the pressure from the manifold. if you reattached it you are fine.
