####,
I have noticed that since I installed my afpr it takes two starts to get the car running. It seems like the fuel pressure bleeds off while the car has been sitting for a while and it takes the pump a start or two to get the pressure built back up. Anyone ever experience this before?

Thanks
DB
 
Yes, but it is because the Fuel pump assemble not the FPR. unleast that you noticed that one of your lines is leaking.
Mine does it sometimes. but it is ok as long as it keep the presure while it is Idling/driving.

I am not sure if the Fuel pump goes on when the Key is in ON postion. if so, leave it in there for a few second before crank it. It should help...
 
I have noticed that after I try to start it the first time, if I wait a few seconds and let the fuel pump build pressure it will start just fine the second time. It just gets a little annoying having to try and start the car two times.
 
Alot of guys seem to have trouble with the Aeromotive, which is what you have. I'm not sure if there was an installation error or not but alot of guys don't have this problem as well.
 
I dont know what I could have done incorrectly, it seems to be pretty straight forward. Ill keep messing around to see if I could have a leak but it doesnt seem to have one.
