Pulsation Dampener (PD) Replacement

brycerxer · 02-26-2010, 05:46 PM

I've been doing a whole lot of reading and searching (even in the FSM) for info on the replacement of the PD on the primary fuel rail. There is a whole lot of discussion about banjo bolts etc, but nothing about the actual replacement. Being a novice mechanic at best, here's what I'd like to know: 1) Do I need to remove any other parts to do it? It looks like I just loosen it with an open ended wrench and replace it -is it that simple? 2) Can I just tighten that little phillips head screw that comes loose and leaks for a temporary fix in order to drive it twelve miles home?

Do any of you have experience with this? Any help would be much appreciated.
