What is fuel pressure when cranking and when running and when at WOT in 3rd?

If any air is in fuel or oil system it can take 100 miles to get it out if you have worked on it.

IPR% at idle and at WOT run charted is more helpful. Also include inj pulse width and ICP pressures

Thats looking good for pressure

rough idle can be a few things
weak cylinder
no sealing valve
weak lifter not pumping up
IPR can stick
bad IDM
bad inj harness
inj orings worn
worn injectors

Been calibrating guage and my new chinese liguid filled guage is 10 psi off so my pressures are 10 psi higher hooking up to forscan all the tests it will let me do it has passed except park brake switch and # 4 cyl on contribution test about a month ago i had #4 and #5 on contribution test but used diesel kleen i think might have helped with it dropping to 7% on ipr i am leaning towards that being bad does that sound about right?
