That's a better question. No load in my mind= turned off. Idle and a few flares are a load-light but still a load. That measurement lets you know your pump is working. It will not tell you how good your pressure is under WOT load. Hope that helps.

True, true... my junk is rock solid at 61 psi (idle) then at wot it drops to 47 psi and that aint right. The gauge is broke or the pump's are not working properly, need to solve it asap.
