SOME QUESTIONS.

GOT A 92 RS V8 305 FROM A FRIEND. CAR WAS RIGGED IN SO MANY WAYS.

FIRST. IT HAS A NEW CARTER IN TANK FUEL PUMP CONNECTED TO A NEW FACET 4PSI MAX EXTERNAL FUEL PUMP TO NEW FUEL FILTER TO FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR TO SUMMIT FUEL GAUGE TO NEW EDELBROCK 1406 CARB. CRANKED UP AT EXTREMELY HIGH IDLE THEN STARTED TO AFTER FIRE OUT OF EXHAUST PIPE. IM THINKING BECAUSE OF WAY TOO MUCH FUEL PRESSURE. THE FUEL GAUGE WAS READING PAST 15PSI. SO I DISCONNECTED THE EXTERNAL FUEL PUMP AND GOT THE FUEL PRESSURE TO COME DOWN TO 11 WITH IGNITION ON BUT WITH IGNITION OFF THE GAUGE STAYS AT 5PSI.
I TRIED REMOVING THE INTANK FUEL PUMP BUT THE EXTERNAL WASNT SUCKING ANY FUEL TO PUSH TO CARB SO CAR WASNT STARTING. NOW THAT I WENT WITH INTANK CARTER PUMP WITH REGULATOR THE PRESSURE IS STILL HIGH. I HAVE THE REGULATOR TURNED ALL THE WAY COUNTER CLOCKWISE. HOW DO I GET FUEL PRESSURE GAUGE TO DROP BACK TO ZERO? AND DO U THINK THAT SHORT TIME OF RUNNING BOTH FUEL PUMPS WAS ENOUGH TO MOVE NEEDLES IN CARB?

 

Also i just found out that fuel has leaked into my oil.
