Low fuel pressure causing my problems?

Bought an 02 SD e350 with the 6.8 v10 a couple months back.

It had rough idle,miss,surging,lack of power

Ive replaced,plugs,coils,fuel filter,pcv,IAC, alternator (was bad), o2 sensors, checked cat.

Its running better but still not 100%. It still runs rough but drives way better and has some power now.

Only code was for cam sensor which ive also replaced and replaced connector for. Still same issues.

I figured I would check fuel pressure before trying to run new wires for the cam sensor from the harness.

I turned key on a few times and depressed shraeder and it just kind of overflows out. It doesnt spray or seem to have force behind it.

I just got a fuel pressure test gauge in the mail. Its a super cheap china ebay special. I cant get it to even register any level of pressure with van running or cycling key on off.

Not sure if my pump is bad or this cheap gauge.

Any ideas?
