ISSUE
Some vehicles may exhibit a lack of power and/or low performance condition, caused by no return fuel flow to the fuel tank. This condition can be
identified while performing the "Air in the Fuel System" test from the Performance Diagnostic Sheet. This is due to a restricted orifice or clogged
strainer screen. This TSB article does not apply to 1996 and later vehicles.
ACTION
Remove the fuel pressure regulator assembly to inspect the return orifice and strainer screen for debris. Refer to the following Service Procedure for
details.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
Refer to Figure 1.
