How to by-pass Fuel pressure solenoid (have searched)

I went non-seq. while back and my hasnt been running since. I get zero fuel pressure when trying to boost. I checked the FPR both lines are connected. Only thing I can think of now is by-pass the solenoid. Anyone?

Run a line directly from your regulator to the angled nipple on the LIM.

Yeah I know that much. But I'm kinda confused on which nipple. Anyone got a pic?

its the only one on the inside of the lim under the uim that is pointing towards the firewall

you should feel vacuum when you take the hose off from the fpr

Start at the fuel pressure regulator. Follow the vacuum line going to it to the solenoid controlling it. On the solenoid there will be one other line. Then siimply bypass the solenoid by combining the two hoses together or run one line from where each line ends.

The solenoids arent there. Took them out. So the bottom vaccum line on the FPR just connect it to the nipple faces the firewall on the LIM? I looked at it and the line off the FPR is going to this round thing on the throttle body, or close to it.
