Fuel Pressure Guage reading
Hey guys,
I 'm sort of new at this so help me out.
I went to check the fuel pressure at idle on my 383.
I was surprised when I checked with the engine running at idle, that my fuel pressure guage was pretty eratic reading around 45psi.
Is the erratic reading normal or do you think I have a bum guage or a bum fuel regulator or some other issue?
I was expecting the needle to be more stable pointing at 45 or 47 PSI and not shaking from 40 to 50 psi.
