Standard FPR

Post by Kitch »

Does anyone know what the pressure the standard FPR runs? Is it 3.0bar or 3.5?

Should be 3bar mate.

Hence the tolerance given - http://www.bx16valve.co.uk/17.html

I’m not sure of the new OE-FPR pressure settings. 45psi??
I did a test run while checking a suspect fuel pump.

With a pressure gauge and regulator fitted in-line on the inlet of fuel rail (removed) and using low volume compressed air.

Vacuum pipe disconnect. 45psi, to open the valve, then running at a constant 40psi.

Then acuum applied to FPR – 31psi. Reducing to 25psi as inlet pressure was increased to 60psi.

Hope this may help

And for the indepth figures download and install the BX16v/mi16 Tech Utility.

When you run it from your desktop just follow it by selecting citroen and it will lead you to Fuel Pressure where it gives all the ratings.
