I have a bad fuel pressure damper on the passenger side that fuel is leaking out of the vacuum nipple. I put a vacuum gauge on it and it started pulling fuel up the line. I want to know will it be alright to bypass it for now? I've got to wait until this Friday when I get paid to buy another one.

Thanks,
Matt

I went ahead and bypassed it. It seems to be running alright. It's hard to tell since I've got other issues right now causing a slight rough idle and the engine acceleration power seems to be down by 40%. It all started from a failed injector and I decided to swap the rail out for the second generation assembly and other problems popped up.
