Default b/m FPR

just installed my command-flo and am a little disturbed by a couple things

1 - are these really sensitive when you adjust - it went from 20-100 just from a slight turn
2 - for some reason i thought the system should retain pressure even though the car is off , mine goes instantly to zero
3 - i adjusted mine at idle , 46 psi , tightened the nut down , dorve around for a bit
got home to pop the hood and 56 psi

anyone have any insight on these problems , I hope i installed it right but i have like a hundred stock fpr's here so i can redo it if needed
I measured down 1/4" from the top and that was a little too low cause it cut the pin off the the bolt sits on , so I cut another one put it together and it seems fine except for these little probs.

Thanks - Jamie

The system does not retain pressure with the car off. Can't answer your other two questions - hope someone else can because I was thinking of getting one of these after making a few more mods.

"1 - are these really sensitive when you adjust - it went from 20-100 just from a slight turn"

I have to turn mine a half a turn to move it 2psi

"2 - for some reason i thought the system should retain pressure even though the car is off , mine goes instantly to zero"

Mine takes a while after the car's off to die down

" i adjusted mine at idle , 46 psi , tightened the nut down , drove around for a bit
got home to pop the hood and 56 psi"

That's fucked up

My FPR needle drops very slowly once I turn the engine off. Did you install it correctly? Might want to dismantle it and check it out, hope you didn't use too much locktite on those bolts.
