Subject:      Fuel pressure regulator - acceptable pressure readings?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Just for fun (not really, just working through things that might have something to do with the occasional bad running I mentioned a couple of weeks ago) I measured the fuel pressure at the test port ("T" connection).

I got a value of  (at idle, vacuum hose on/off) 32/38 psi.

Bentley says it should be "approx. 29/36psi.

I'm wondering if my readings are within acceptable range or are indeed too high?

cheers
