Fuel Pressure Low
The fuel system pressure is below the minimum required for proper injection. Low fuel pressure prevents adequate fuel delivery to the injectors, causing hard starting, loss of power, rough running, and potential engine stalling under load. Modern common-rail systems require precise fuel pressure for proper atomization.
