Resolved Fuel pressure solenoid FPS resistance values?

[AtomikRage45]

Im throwing a code of (P1105) Fuel pressure solenoid.
Does anyone happen to know what the resistance value is so i can jump a resistor across it...
EGR is eliminated

Just use a multimeter and test for the resistance in ohms across the leads of the fuel pressure solenoid. You will also need to apply vaccuum to the solenoid to see how much the resistance changes according to vac pressure. Then you'll have an idea of which ohm resistor you'll need.

what amount of vac pressure should i put threw the solenoid

Actually if you are going to be eliminating the fuel pressure sensor you won't have to pressurize it to get a reading. You would be able to just test the resistance of the solenoid and line it up with a resistor of the same resistance. Make sure though that you buy a resistor that will dissipate the amount of wattage that you will need. The correct ohm load and too small wattage rating is a good way to catch something ablazing. You should be able to get by with a 10 watt rating.

FP solenoid is spec'd at 36-44 ohms. Use resistor in that range with greater than 8W rating and you'll be ok.

thanks everybody. im going to stop by radioshack and see if i can pick one up. once again thanks

Isn't it ok to bypass the FPR solenoid altogether? (but still electrically fool the ECU with the resistor) see http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/bolt-tech/134060-new-afpr-do-i-need-bypass-stock-fpr-solenoid.html
