Fuel Pressure Regulator 1 Performance

37 brands affected · Generic SAE J2012 description.

Key terms: SAE J2012: the standard generic code list · Powertrain: engine, transmission and emissions

Safety: This code relates to fuel pressure or a fuel leak, which carries a stall or fire risk.

1What it means in plain English

The fuel pressure regulator is not holding pressure where the engine computer expects, so fuel delivery is not being controlled properly.

2Common causes

  1. Faulty fuel pressure regulator
  2. Weak or failing fuel pump
  3. Clogged fuel filter
  4. Leaking fuel line
  5. Faulty fuel pressure sensor

3Can I drive?

Serious · drive with care

Have it diagnosed before driving further if the engine runs badly or smells of fuel. Poorly controlled fuel pressure can cause stalling, rich running or lean-running engine damage.

This page gives general information. It is not professional advice. For a definite diagnosis and a repair quote, ask a qualified mechanic to inspect the car.
