Clois,
Looks like bad weather for the next few days, so will have plenty of time to get under the car and route around - will check the fuel filter.
Never been particularly happy with my electric pump - 'Holley Red'.
Holley claims 7psi in their literature - real world experience with mine shows 4lbs at idle, 6-7lbs at about 3500rpm (pressure guage is mounted on my fuel rail). I can only guess that the pressure change occurs because of alternator speed; i.e. higher rpm = higher amps = faster pump speed.
I've been told that Holleys, in general, like about 5 to 5-1/2lbs pressure (max). So I was thinking about a higher pressure pump, and putting a regulator on it to stabilize the pressure a bit. I have no provision for a return line to the tank, so I have to assume that I may shorten the pump life a bit by regulating the pressure down.
Thanks again,
Dan
