Need help with Fuel Pressure Drop I just changed my torque converter and now my fuel pressure dropped from 59#'s to 54# at idel. I drop to 40# at wot. I checked the fuel lines and didnt bump or dent them. The walbro fuel pump is less then a year old so I dont think that is bad. The fuel injectors are FMS 30# and less then a year old and same with the fuel filter. What else should I check? Also the pressure reading is from an autometer electrial fp gauge. Your help is appreciated.

My car is having the same issues, replcaed the pump and no different, checked and tightened the lines and nothing. Now we are waiting on the new regulator. I hope thats it. Good luck man, I feel your pain. I was driving my car back home from teh shop when it happened. Pretty odd considering it had no issues on the dyno when it made 550rwhp.
Good Luck, I will let you know when we figure out what the problem with mine is!

fuel issue Just put a mechanical gauge on and at idel it shows 56#'s. At WOT it drops to 46#'s. I put a new filter on and still drops. Damn gotta be something connected to or in the pump. Any thoughts?
