Is using the same vacuum port for MAP sensor + FPR OK?

Post by GGR »

Hi all,

I have one threaded hole in my plenum in which I can bolt in a fitting and then connect a vacuum line. I need vacuum for MAP and fuel pressure regulator. Is it ok to plug in a T in the MAP sensor vacuum line to connect the FPR or will the two connected to the same source alter the vacuum value for eachother? In other words should I drill and thread another hole in the plenum for the FPR? If I can avoid it's better because taking the plenum out is a pain.

Thanks!

Teeing the fuel pressure regulator line is perfectly OK.
