Default Fuel pressure regulator

All,
I have a 1988 240 glt and would like to know where is the best place to source a fuel pressure regulator. Thanks in advance.

Assuming the engine is a B230F, Skandix sell one that seems to be similar in quality to the OE FPR. I bought mine from Skandix about 3 years ago, and I remember it wasn't as cheap as most of the other options (from the US -- FCP Euro and RockAuto).

However -- I didn't think that in 1988 the 240GLT had LH injection -- they had a B230E, which AFAIK doesn't have a fuel pressure regulator. My 1988 UK model 240GL had a B200E and no FPR.

It is an accumulator and fitted next to the main fuel pump on K jet cars. The only time they really give problems is when some clever idiot takes them off when replacing the fuel pump
