Default fuel pressure?

at idle 30 psi. 40 when floored is that normal? no load on motor at 2000 rpm 28 psi.

within spec for idle and WOT, but the 28 is a bit low. regulator might be on its way out.

usually spikes to 42 on WOT, so yeah a bit low

what does it go to if you pull the vac line from the reg ? if it does NOT go to 42... i'd say reg or pump is going bad
