Re: Fuel Pressure

assuming that the AFPR was already set before and your filter is clean then you probably have the wrong pump. 20 PSI max is what you would get out of a TBI fuel pump so if you are looking for 40PSI then it could be the case. I put in the wrong one and got 22PSI - everything else was good, took it out and got the correct one and 45PSI.
