Fuel pump assembly: Fuel pressure regulator popping out
The fuel pressure regulator is popping out of the fuel pump assembly, which is in the tank. It is just a push in device.
It pops out after I prime the fuel system. You can hear the pump priming, and after the third prime, BANG, it's now sitting in the bottom of the fuel canister and I have no fuel pressure. Has anyone experienced this before or know why it could be happening? |

There is a small plastic brackets that holds the pressure regulator in place. It also is the piece that holds the stock fuel pump filter. I cut off the piece from the stock filter assembly and now the regulator is staying in place.
