I dont know alot about CIS but i woudl think that would provide really high fuel pressure?
or maybe really low?
a car I am looking to buy has this done to it... I would put it back to stock with a new FPR but I nwat to make sure that the engine wasnt damaged because of it being run that way.
Thanks in advance for any onfo.

Do a compression check
if it was running particulary too rich then you "may" see some loss of compression.
But otherwsie, no it shouldn't have caused anything significant.
Do a good check and be thorough though. I have found that if one thing has been "rigged" there's usually something else that's been tinkered with.

I was re-reading my many emails with the owner, turns out its the pressure accumulator....
under the car, which is no biggie.
I will be doing a compression check anyway though.
and I plan on having to replace stuff anywho.
