By looking at it ,the fuel flow goes directly from the pump, through the filter to the two injectors in series and then directly returned to the tank.There are no other device ..The injectors themselves look typical except for the device on top of the injectors where the hoses are attached...
They are not regulators, it's a banjo fitting w/screen. Regulator is in the pump. Don't believe me? Pull off the circlip retainer and look inside on top of injector.
The fuel pressure regulator is in the bottom plate assembly . Top side of where the return line enters. Pressure is 3 bar or 44psi . Paul B
The fuel pump is capable of providing more flow and pressure than the injectors can use, the more efficient way to control this is to put a regulator on the downstream side of the injectors to keep pressure and flow constant.

Federal emission standards dictated to lower EVAP emissions, most mfgrs. went to a no return line system and installed the regulator in the tank, tha main difference on these systems is in the ECM that controls the pump. On returnless, the ECM varies the speed of the pump with more inputs from more sensors, return type typically only uses a Mass airflow sensor to control the injector signal. Pump stays constant.

I'm skeptical of the connection between EVAP systems and returnless. For instance the Guzzi Cali systems used both a return and EVAP at least by 00-0? A few years earlier Harley was already using a returnless version of the same Weber-Marelli system despite not having an EVAP system.Also how universal so you think a pulsed fuel pump signal was? I'm having problems remembering an example that I know for sure.
Can anyone explain why they'd use a return line if the regulator was in the tank at basically the same position as the fuel pump anyway?Was there a fear of temperature effects on fuel in the feed line that returning and mixing could minimize or ?!?
Since the fuel line is pressurized, vapor lock should not be an issue.By running the line out to the injectors and back, the system purges any air from the lines quickly. If you run a single line to the injectors it can trap air in that line and it needs to purge it all through the injector. If you get air in the line.
