Default k20 hb lose fuel pressure after prime help please

hey i have a eg hatch with a k20z1. im running an aem fpr w/earls, filter walboro 255, and a return line.
so the here's the problem when i turn "koeo" the fuel pressures gauge reads 40psi then it just bleeds off to zero. when i cracked the line at the fuel rail the fuel dosent gush out like its just been relieved from being under pressure. instead i barely get a drip. There are no leaks of fuel or air, everything is tight. i am assuming the fpr failed on me so i ordered a aeromotive a100. just want to know if anyone else has had this same issue. i searched and seen people have issue stuck at 20psi or wont pass 20psi but not full pressure at prime then just bleed off to zero also car wont start. lmk know if im going in the right direction.

When I prime my fuel system the Areomotive loses pressure as well. But the areomotives do that when the pump isn't constantly on. I don't know about the arm unit though.
