dont think its being honest anymore... Getting tired of chasing a "fuel pressure" issue i dont think exists anymore... found plenty of videos where people were having this same problem.. sever times this morning it dropped to 0psi before i took the video..

Like that the Boost and Trans have been pretty steady... the fuel & oil pressure ones seems to be the one everyone has a problem with..

around town the trans ones been sitting about 160... when i was coming back from MA it got to 170.. but we hit some 80* muggy area which i figure what caused that to rise..

That seems to still be safe. When was the last time the trans fluid was changed?
