Does anyone have a tutorial or guide to changing the FPR, mine is shot and getting new injectors I want to make sure that the FPR isn't spiking fuel pressures and blowing them out early.

Its in the do it yourself section. Search for it. Im replacing mine now. Easy to get too but PITA to remove.

Searched the hell outta that section and the boards in general and can't find anything. Why is it a PITA to remove?

Loopy idle, Check Engine Light, and from what I understand can lead to injector failure.

So can someone elaborate on "loppy idle"

I don't have any of the typical symptoms of injector failure, so not too worried there but lately about every ten to fifteen seconds at idle, the idle will shudder just a little bit. The tach doesn't seem to move, but it is enough that you can hear/somewhat feel it stumble for a second. FPR?

Might be over worrying a non-issue, but this truck has been excellent and I want to keep it that way. Just a new noise that wasn't their for the last 65,000.
