    TBI Regulator bypass?

    Looking inside the injector pod lid that holds the injectors in as well as the top half of the fuel pressure regulator there is a brass jet cast into the fuel delivery line. Looks like it's there in case the regulator get's stuck shut so fuel can still get to injectors.

    Is that the real purpose? In testing some huge springs that will not open the regulator I know fuel bypasses, but what's it really for?
