Default How long should the fuel system stay pressurized?

How long should the fuel system stay pressurized after the engine is shut off?
On my 97 LS all OEM fuel components the fuel pressure only holds for 1-2hours on the fuel filter mounted pressure gauge. I have a rough(misfire) idle on semi cold startups and think its a leaky injector. NO CELS and #1 cylinder plug looks slighty rich compared to the other 3. I have moved the #1 injector over to #2 and will recheck the plug in a few days.

Mine does the smae thing, It'll start to drop off pressure after a few minutes, but it'll hold at around 20 PSI for about an hour. When I start the car the next day or later that day, it is at 0 PSI. I don't know if that's normal, but I don't have any problems, or missing of any sort.

my guage is mounted on my fpr, it drops off pretty quickly, isn't it just because the fuel goes back down the return ?
