Hey guys,
I replaced my FPR last week and today while doing some maintenance I noticed that it wiggles just a little but back and forth. It doesn't leak. I thought it may be ok so I checked the one on my wife's 3.4 and it's tight. I replaced that one too not to long ago. What can I do to fix this? Can the retainer be replaced? The torx bolt is tight.

I had that happen once. Been a long time, but I think the bracket bent slightly when I took off the FPR. So I took it off and bent it back a little, iirc.

Cool. I thought I had a fuel rail issue. Thanks. I will look into it.

Thanks. Took it off and squeezed it tighter together and everything is tight. Had to tap on it a little
