So like most things.... I read a couple threads and got excited and searched for, found, and ordered ~ XYZ
For example, Durango soft line for rear brakes and C1500 front...
Another ~ Neon fuel injectors.
After installing them, someone had told me that Neon injectors "work" but are "a waist of money" because they're designed to run at 40+ psi.
I noticed a smoother ride with them. But that also could be the 30 old stock injectors were crap.
I came across a thread for an adjustable fuel pressure regulator (like $300) so I could increase the pressure to 40-45 psi.
....but dropping $300 is more than I want to do if they currently run fine.
Then I came across a thread for fuel pressure regulators that are direct swaps. AND to get to the NEON's target of 40+, I could just find a 90'ish (I think 90/91) Caravan, it's a direct swap.
So before I go junkyard hunting, I like to check RockAuto to see what their prices are, because why drop $20 for used when I could get new for $25-$30...
I ordered 1 and should receive it in a couple days. Install it when I swap the NEON injectors from my '89.
And then I started to wonder. I haven't read on the logic of increasing fuel pressure.
SO HERE IS MY QUESTION.... Since I can't adjust my OBD1 computer
Is bumping my PSI to 40 going to cause me to run real rich?
Or (what I'm hoping), will it make the NEON Injectors do their magic and better atomize my fuel?
