[QUOTE="hal keiner, post: 855837, member: 66101"] l1teach, Thanks for the information on the fuel pressure issue and how the ECM responds to low pressure. My ST has had the leaky check valve problem since I bought it used a few years ago. I confirmed this by connecting a fuel pressure gauge to the rail. It annoys my wife having to wait a few seconds for the motor to start, but I have not wanted to spend the money on having the fuel pump replaced. Do you have any thoughts on installing an external check valve to the fuel line to fix the problem? I found the below reference check valve repair kit. I called the manufacturer to see if it will work on a ST and whether the fittings are compatible with a ST, but did not get a satisfactory response, i.e., they didn't know for sure and had no knowledge of it actually being used on a ST.
