[s-cars] Fuel pressure tester port on AAN

It goes where the FPR is installed, but then you need somewhere to put
the FPR.  You have to put your own port in the system or install  
something
like ECS sells.

However, your s-bitch is being mischievous and playing tricks on  
you.  It
is not possible to have  a vapor lock with the pressure in the fuel  
injection
system, and a faulty FPR or injector leak-down would show just as  
much on
a cold engine.  They could contribute and fuel pump is a possibility.

Check for engine fault codes and observe the MIL (check engine light)  
when
you have problems.  You are describing the classic CPS failure  
syndrome. It
must be starting to thaw a little north of the border as a little  
heat seems to
cause this intermittent failure that soon becomes total.
