Car will crank but not turn over My car has had a slight hesitation for a bit. Today I was driving in to school and the car started to cut out at anything above 15-20% throttle. I would step on it and it'd be as if I pushed the clutch in. I made it to school, but when I was leaving the car wouldn't start. It would crank but it wouldn't turn over. Fuel pressure gauge read around 40 or so. It's a new Walbro 255 with fewer than 1000 miles. Any ideas?

I managed to start it but I have to keep giving it gas or else it shuts off. Pressure starts off real low.. like 15 or so, then I crank and it builds up. Once it fires it goes to 58-60, then I have to give it gas to keep it running.

FPR=fuel pump related?
I'm thinking the fuel hose came off. I'm gonna try swapping the filter tomorrow. I'm hoping it's that, but I doubt it. Time to cut an access door.. I'm not dropping the tank again.. especially with 14-15 gallons in it.
