My brand new Autometer electric Fuel Pressure gauge is acting differently so I cannot figure out which is normal. Maybe someone has some feedback on this matter.

Installed the gauge about 4 days ago, pressure was always constant at 60 psi, even when I shifted.

Today, everytime I shifted gears, it would drop down to 0 and then climb back to 60 psi about a second later.

So which is normal ? SHould the gauge drop to 0 when shifting or remain constant at a number

thanks

Poor Zoltan. I thought I had maybe helped you catch a break last Saturday with those gauges. Have you checked to make sure those fittings were still tight and not leaking any?

If you're running static fuel pressure of 60psi, your gauge should stay at 60psi.

call them, they had a recall on the electric FP gauge. Mine was replaced as well as three other local guys I know
