But the procedure is simple iff you have the gauge, t fitting and shut off. There are two lines from the regulator to the distributor. You want to put the gage in the line that has the arrow on the ditributor pointing towards the center of the fuel distributor.(return line). With the engine cold, jump the fuel pump relay to engage the pump. Read the cold pressure It will depend on outside air temp.. As I recall this also aplies power to the heater in the regulator. The pressure should start dropping. When it stabilizes, this is the hot pressure. I have adjusted them with a brass punch and hammer, got that trick from an old timer. In order to get both pressures right, you geneally have to tack it apart and make internal adjustments. (again, with a hammer) To check the fuel pressure you close off the line between the gauge and the distribution manifold, basically reading the output of the regulator with the line blocked, which is actually the controlled fuel pressures. This is adjustable with shims on the valve right next to where the main line from the pump enters the fuel distributor. Again, I highly recomend getting the Probst book, It gives a good real world discription of the system and great drawings.
