Default How sensitive is the 1993 del sol1.6L engine to fuel pressure? I'm reading 40 psi.

Fuel pressure is 40 psi - service manual shows 40-47 psi. Fuel pressure regulator shows 31 psi and manual states 30-37 psi AIR. Is there a compelling reason to replace fuel pump aside from that it's putting out min pressure with 12 v input at the pump?

It's within spec so I don't see a need to replace. Might worry about cleaning the injectors for a good spray pattern but that would be it at this stage in my opinion.

You're still within range, so I wouldn't worry about it. Also, I'd be eyeballing your fuel filter before your pump.

Anyone recommend an injector cleaning place? I've had my eye on InjectorRX.com to refurbish my 26year old CRX injectors for some time now.
