Since this thread is about bypassing the fdc, shouldn't there be the info here for turning down the fuel pressure.

I remember reading about it in another thread but now i need to look for it again.

Turning DOWN the fuel PRESSURE or RATE? The opperating pressure is what it is. The fuel rate can be adjusted.

Look for "fuel adjustment in pics" and just do the opposite.

Bingo. I popped the cutoff cover off today and found a pool of fuel inside it. I turned on the in-tank pump and almost instantly had fuel dripping from the HH. At a minimum from the O ring where the accelerator shaft goes in the side of the HH, and possibly from the internal O rings as well.

Thanks again DH.

FDC may be bad as well, but I'm going to tackle this issue first and see where it leaves me.

So how did you do the ring on the accelerator shaft? Is it in the TM's?
