Fuel Pressure problem
2002 convertible, Stock. I have been having start problem after replacing my fuel filter. It cranks for about 5 seconds then starts. I put a fuel pressure gauge on it this morning. The gauge read 0. Turned the key and the fuel pressure went to 70 then back to 0 in about 2 seconds. I tried this several time and got the same results. I then started the car and the fuel pressure went to 100 and stayed there while running. I shut the engine off and the pressure went to 0 again. Any ideas on where to start?

Thanks Guys. I did not know that the fuel filter performs BOTH fuel pressure regulation and fuel filtering. I will have to get another GOOD fuel filter. I purchased this filter off of Amazon; PTC PGF336 Fuel Filter.
