Icon2 Pressure in fuel return line

Today I was doing some work on my car and I had to remove the fuel return line off of the fuel pressure regulator. So like 30 mins go by and it starts spraying gas out of it for like 10 seconds and stopped. Is it supposed to do that? I thought that the return side was not supposed to bo pressurized. The car has not been started for a week and the battery terminals were removed before I started doing the work on it.

Default Re: Pressure in fuel return line

Why do your pressure readings have such large ranges?

Connecting the FPR vacuum hose typically drops the fuel pressure 10 PSI, so the return line may be clogged.
