That being said,you also need to connect the fuel return from the pump to the fuel return line to the fuel tank or the pump will not last long. I have the same Weber on my '88 and have no dieseling issues.
factory pump with a fuel pressure regulator2.jpg the problem with that is i put a gauge on the line going to the carb and could not get a reading @ all so i thought maybe the the gauge was bad so i bought another one regulator with gauge 3.jpgcould not get a reading with that one either. now i hooked theses in the line that goes to the carb (after the pump before the carb) so it should have read something right? but i get nothing no reading on either gauge so i took them out and am now just running the fuel pressure regulator2.jpg
