7mm socket? My car takes a 4mm hex key or allen wrench. Is yours factory? I bought my car brand new and it was that way.

How do you delete it? I'm sitting here thinking about the logic behind it and the only thing I can think of is possibly by using a return style fuel system but even then I believe people still use them for tuning and stuff.

Malcolm,

from the factory I have seen the socket head and bolt head style.

deleting the FRPS, convert to return style

I don't see why not, I know most people that blow a FRPS, and change it on the side of the road, don't change there on the road. A few miles couldn't hurt, JMO. No boost if it was me

Why do you need to change the oil after your FRPS blows? Mine put so little gas in the vacuum line I'm not even sure I could get a drop but had that wetness to it where I could see the sensor had blown. Even so doesn't that gas go into the intake and would get burnt when you start up the engine?

I realy cant answer the reason WHY, but that's what I read + i smell my oil dipstick and it kind of smell gaz. Rather not taking any chance

Thanks
