45 at idle isn't all that bad IMHO. Closer to 60 is of course better. I've never been a fan of the BB trick. But is a quick band-aid. You could just order the Cali spring kit from Ford.
Check both FPR screens. Yours should have a removable black plastic fella hanging down from the FPR. There is a cleanable screen in there Also the screen to the return line to the tanks. In the fuel bowl at about one o'clock.
