Checking Fuel Pressure (Guage)
I'm getting ready to check my fuel pressure, and maybe do a little shimming, but was wondering what type of guage I should use? I'm not looking for a permanet guage just one low cost one to check it with.
Thanks

The thing is the pressure will drop under a big load. At least mine does. It's rock solid at idle. I'm able to make it drop over 30 psi now... You don't want to plumb real fuel pressure into the cab, so I don't know that there is a good way other than a cheap mechanical gauge setup on the motor and get it dyno'd maybe. Check around for events coming up in your area. A lot of dyno days going on.
