When I went to remove the FRP I went to drain fuel out of the fuel rail valve and I got hardly any fuel. The car sat for 24 hours. Is this normal?

It would be normal if your FPR or fuel pump were letting pressure to bleed off. Mine can sit for days and still get a real good squirt then I press the valve.

Thanks! I'll be replacing FPR tomorrow. Fuel pump is about 3 years old.
