May 11May 11 comment_676124 IMO I don’t think so. Others will chime in. Pressure doesn’t change under load. I think you have issues you haven’t looked into yet.

May 11May 11 comment_676125 3 hours ago, gotham22 said:. At idle, the pressure reads 32 psi. When I manually move the throttle, it increases to about 38 psi.This normal. It also shows (edit) pretty good intake system vacuum. 30 psi or below at idle is normal. Have you adjusted the valves recently?If I had this problem I would check the TVS (aka TPS). Make sure it's working right at open throttle. It's what adds the extra fuel. Your fuel pressure looks good.

3 hours ago3 hr comment_676231 What condition is your EFI harness? Have you replaced all of the connectors? I fought it forever. Finally reworked and soldered each connector, cleaned each contact and was amazed.
