Default Re: What is the expceted Fuel Rail Pressure when driving

Checks I did without an assistant to actually drive the car.

Fuel pressure at idle: 40psi

Fuel pressure at idle with the vacuum line to the FPR disconnected: 50 psi

Fuel pressure at idle while I used a vacuum pump to pull vacuum on the FPR: pressure drops from 50 psi to 40 psi.

So If I assume that the difference between my reading of 40 psi and Marc's comment that fuel pressure should be 43 psi may be gauge tolerance, I conclude that the Fuel Pressure Regulator is responding properly.

Next step, drive the car. So I am waiting for a ZR-1 assistant driver certified for WOT operation.
