ok,heres the thing:
stock settings:
34psi
44psi (with hose off)
b&m fpr:
38psi
48psi (with hose off)
the b&m fpr wont adjust up or down,
screw is off & thats the settings,
if I try to tighten the bolt,(it gets super stripped hard!)
& does nothing but a .cm up not even half of a psi~
any suggestions?

is there any possibilitys?
maybe the spring gets old?
should I open it up,,check it out?
will the gasket be unusable?
should I put the torque on it?
beat on it?

1st off..srry for the D-post..I had to bump this up!
ok...I must be such a n00b...but I guess I didnt know how to adjust the b&m fpr...heres what I've found/searched...
"ya. Just un loosen the nut and then adjust the middle vacuum screw as accordingly"
&
"The gold nut is only a locknut. It holds the adjustment piece in place so that it doesnt move on its own. After you loosen that nut you will need to adjust the part that the vacuum hose goes on."
& just found this: "to adjust the fp (to raise the psi) move the nut up, then get an allen wrench and turn counter-clockwise"
so...how is it now?
I thought there was only 1 nut on top...under the vacuum hose.../

loosen the one nut (locknut) then turn the vacuum nipple CCW to lower fuel pressure.
Nut and Nipple in same sentence FTW!

I have a Walboro 255 in my car with a D16Z6 that used to be boosted before I got it. Now that she's N/A she runs rich as hell at lower RPM. The fuel rail and regulator are stock. Would I benefit from running an adjustable regulator and or aftermarket rail. At idle the guage installed on my fuel filter banjo bolt reads arounf 40 psi and it jumps to 55 to 60 psi at WOT.
