On the 2006 Ram 1500, the fuel pressure regulator is built into the fuel pump and filter assembly, making it non-user-serviceable. It should not be replaced periodically and, if there are issues, it requires a complex process to swap it out. Accessing the full assembly involves dropping the fuel tank. While some drivers may suggest that replacing the regulator can enhance throttle response, this is a misconception. The regulator either functions properly or not, and replacement is only necessary if it fails. To replace it, the entire assembly should be swapped out by a trained professional.
The 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 has its fuel pressure regulator located at the tail end of the fuel rail.
The fuel pressure regulator can be found inside the gas tank of the vehicle, so you'll have to remove the gas tank in order to access it.
