I believe the LE stands for Limited Edition, which must be a special
appearance package. Why they chose LE, I have no idea.

That would be miggity. "The 92-93 Daks had the pressure regulator on the
fuel rail
instead of in the tank. If you switch to the 92 fuel system, you will have
access to the regulator. The 94+ systems use a fuel pump/regulator all in
one unit that is non-serviceable. The 92-93 systems ran the regulator on the
fuel rail, so not only is it serviceable, it's also replaceable. " If
that's the case,
you are one lucky SOB :-)

I wonder if previous owner put a set of FSM #19s (which have yellow tops) in.
The Siemen injectors which I have grey tops ('97) and rated 19# @ 43.5 psi. My
fuel pressure is somewhere between 45 and 50 psi., so they are about
equivalent to 23-24# @ 43.5 psi. I don't recall at the moment what psi
the FSM #19 are rated at but I pretty sure its lower than 43.5 psi.
