Aeromotive FPR not holding pressure... - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

my aeromotive a1000 fpr isn't holding pressure. I even changed the diaphragm and still the same issue. Could the whole unit just be fu--ked?

Do you know for sure its losing pressure? Or is it just the gauge that shows the loss? Could be a bad gauge. Far fetched idea, but try soapy water along the threads while its under pressure to see if there are any leaks around the threads.

Hm.. id still go after it with soapy water. Best way to find pressure leaks. Just chase the lines and if it isnt them, then at least youve ruled them out.
