Confirmed fuel pump pressure

Post by max71 »

Don't know how I had gotten one but I found a vac gauge that worked both for vacuum and pressure. Written right on the dial - fuel pressure. After I got a small adapter I measured --- 3.2 so the fuel pressure seems fine.

Another theory bites the dust.

Was that a constant 3.2 psi at all times?
Or just at idle...or at 4,499 rpm?
In baseball, running into someone is apparently a "collision".
But doing the same thing in a car somehow makes it an "accident".

Ooops. Didn't even fire the engine. Guess I now need a T-adapter.
