idle fuel pressure 40-45psi... drops to 20psi at WOT... wtf?
b18a
fuel pressure jumps around alot at idle from 40-45 with the vacuum line connected...
it goes from 45-50 with the line disconnected
then with a wide open throttle press, it dies down to 20psi and the car boggs horribly
when driving it random does this and then stops... then runs fine... then does it again
took the FPR off of my ls/vtec car which is why the base pressure is higher then normal... but i thought maybe my stock one was bad because it was too losing pressure at WOT
i don't know if it's the pump... filter... or something else inline
i do want to know what the regulator looking thing on fuel rail at the return line is
my vtec rail just has a run-through bolt on it instead
and i'm wondering if that might be causing it
it has a little screw/spring thing on the top and it sucks in when the fuel pressure drops

i was thinking the pump might be going out
i just put a new filter on it like 20 minutes ago... and same jazz...
i guess i'll have to swap the walboro from my ls/vtec car into this thing
hopefully.... (since it's the last piece in the fuel system) it will fix my issues

Re: (conlyn)
where you connect your fuel feed, it dampens fuel pump osilation, change the pump out, if its a 91 with a stock pump its prolly on its way out
