Very, We've pulled the fuel line from the rail to check for flow. And I put 10 gallons in it before we started working

Okay, just making sure lol. Maybe you knocked a vacuum line off or a plug to something. I'm not familiar with the layout of the single ports, I have an 04.

Ill look everything over with my buddy. Thanks for the help. If its a cheap and easy fix then i consider it a good trade for my old turd suzuki.

By the way, did the stangs come with fiberglass hoods?

Believe to have found the problem. Ordering a new fuel pressure regulator. It seems to be allowing to much fuel, causing it to flood when I try and start it. Any opinions on what I should get though? I'm working with a tiny budget. Can I trust the cheaper ones?
