    First off I have a hum from the rear while driving it changes in intensity when hitting bumps or turning. Wheel bearing? Do I need a special tool for parking brake?

    Second issue. Fuel pressure bleeds off fast when car is off. Could this be regulator or leaky injector? Its a 2001 gt. The car runs fine but sometimes makes a dieseling sound when starting for just a split second.

    #1 .. I don't remember what year you have. Nothing is really a special tool in doing the bearing (which sounds about right). Worst part of the bearing on a 97-03 is the parking brake piece on the back that bolts into the bearing. Crusty bolts.

    #2 There is a check valve in the pump that does this.. most of the time you'd never test it or know it's faulty. It's very common.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    So should I just wait a second with key on b4 starting. The 01 has fuel regulator on the rail on top of engine. Shouldn't it not leak out pressure beyond that point?

    If the check valve in the pump is bad, the regulator can't fix that.
