Fuel Pressure
Fuel Pressure
Hey guys.. have a problem, well 2. I got my AFPR in now... and an Accel fuel pressure guage.. first of all, the guage jumps all over the place... i do not know why... second, when i rev it up, the pressure seems to drop (i say seems, because the guage jumps around soooo much, its hard to tell).. any ideas?

Your guage is jumpintg around because you have air in your lines. I don;t know about a fuel pressure guage, but my mechanical oil pressure guage did the same thing, I had to bleed out the air, just like bleeding brake lines.
Air will not stay in the fuel lines for long, it will eventually purge itself. I responded to your other thread...maybe replace the fuel pump relay?!? It's cheap and easy to do...perhaps worth a shot.
*scratching head* Does it run ok? Or is it a bit hesitant? I'm very thankful that mine when back together with no major hick-ups. And my gauge is rock solid. The only difference is you've got a different AFPR than I do.
What have you tried or replaced so far...anything yet?
