Default Fuel pressure problems

Hey Everyone,

I need some help on my new fuel system. I just got the car started today and I only have 25psi of fuel pressure no matter what I do with the screw on the Speed Inc reg.

I have two walbro in tank pumps with a -8 feed. I am using the old stock feed as the return. I have speed inc rails and the CAS/Speed inc regulator.

I am sure everything in the tank is tight. Nothing is leaking. The car idles and I think the fuel pressure jumps around in the 30's. I will check this again tomorrow.

Do you guys have any ideas?

Thanks,
Glenn

Thanks for the help everyone. I found out what the problem was, I didn't have enough fuel in it

I drove the car into the garage before the fuel system came apart and didn't thing anything of it. Well after fixing leaks and this and that it ran out of enough fuel to fully pressurize the system.

I added some fuel and BAM...90 PSI.

Anyways, thanks again for the help.
