I Broke My B&m Fpr...
I was trying to fix my idle problem today ( https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=850120 ) , and I was going to lower the fuel pressure psi by adjusting my B&M FPR. After turning it some, I tightened it down, and in doing so I broke the nut off the FPR. In order for the vacuum line not to dangle around, I took it totally off. My question is, am I safe to drive around w/ the vacuum line off? Here are some crappy pics:

you will get a check engine light, and your idle will bounce around like crazy if there is a vacumm leak. Same **** happened in my car when I removed the cruise control.

I drove around doing errands today w/ the vacuum line off and had zero problems(no cel's, no weird idling), it drove fine.

Should idle a bit highwer than normal, but please buy something more decent when you'll replace it, unless your still running stock fuel pump.
Mine was great with the stock pump, but once the 255 pump when in, couldn't bring them the fuel pressure lower than 52-55 psi, which is way too high for n/a car.

I am running a stock fuel pump. What FPR are you using since you have the 255 pump? Also, what psi is normal idle psi for a built ITR(stock injectors).
