A returnless type fuel system consists of only a fuel pump with a voltage regulator, a fuel supply line, and finally ends up in the fuel rail. The pump then constantly is pushing fuel up line at a given pressure based on the strength of the pump.
What happens if the fuel return line is blocked?
The fuel return line is blocked, if the fuel pressure now meets specifications. Otherwise, the regulator may be faulty. The second test requires you to allow the engine to idle; while disconnecting the vacuum hose on the fuel pressure regulator; for vehicles that are so equipped.

What to do about excessive return on fuel injection?
Buy a Pressure Control Valve. Check the injectors for excessive return. Remove the return rails and plug the rails with a suitable tool, then crank the engine while watching the injector returns. A small amount of return is normal, but more than 3 ml in 15 seconds while cranking or at idle is considered excessive.

Where is the fuel return line on a Yanmar?

What causes a car to have a misfire code?
The P0171 or P0174 misfire code is set usually caused by lean mixture, it can means the engine is getting too much air, or engine is not getting enough fuel, possibly through a leaky EGR valve or a vacuum leak. Some factors that cause random misfires will set code P0300 such as low fuel pressure or dirty fuel injectors.
