Default Where is the fuel pressure regulator located?

I'm having to turn the key to the run position for a few seconds before starting to get a smooth startup. If I put the key in and just turn to start it takes a while To crank. So I think my regulator is bad and I need info on how to replace.

96+ is on the pump itsself.......96- is on the fuel rail..............almost 100% positive that you have a Checkvalve issue.

as long as you have the same line size just cut the line going down the rail on the jeep and install the valve......
