Default Update on no start

Last night I put a fuel presure gauge on it and it read 40 PSI when I turn the key on. It started up and maintained 40 PSI but still the idle is around 1400 with the screw backed out. I shut it off after it got to about 180 degrees and it wouldn't start back up. I turn the key on and the guage read 10 PSI. SHut the key off and back on and it went to 40 PSI but still wouldn't start. I opened the bleeder on the gauge and the fuel came out almost foamy looking and at the end I just got air. Any more ideas on this no start and high idle? Thro all your ideas at me guys. There is no help around town here and you guys have always fixed me up before. :banghead: :banghead: :confused:
