that wont solve the issue dumb ***

listen .. when you removed the fuel pressure regulator... I am assuming you failed to relize there was a small plastic or rubber o-ring that seats in a groove on the bottom of the regulator, then the regulator goes onto the rail... so basically the ring is between the rail and the regulator...

take the regulator back off ... i bet you $1 thats what you lost or forgot... if you lost it you will most likely have to take your regulator to HOME DEPOT or LOWES and try to find a rubber washer that fits.

Get one from Acura if you can't find one from Home Depot. It is the same size as stock.
