1988 corvette fuel pressure
OK, Here we go again. When I turn the key the pressure at the fuel rail is only 20-22lbs. When the pump stops "priming" it immediately looses ALL pressure. SO, new fuel pump, new fuel regulator, new injectors and 2 days of knuckle busting, bleeding, etc. I turn the key , viola, same thing. I can't find any leaks at all. I got $100 to give and I'm a man of my word to the first bro who can figure this out. I'm begging now.

An obstruction can raise havok on the fuel pressure as well.

1 second crank of the engine and it shot up to 40lbs. but started dropping rapidly. Currently holding about 6-8 lbs. Are we on to something?
