Fuel pressure @ WOT

In another thread it was suggested that I check my fuel pressure at WOT. I'm assuming that it should read the same because of the FPR, but I want to make sure so a hose doesn't burst in my face. That and my guage only goes to 100psi. Is this assumption correct?

It should be under 100 so you should be ok with your gauge. just remember you will have high and low spikes.

well I have always liked shooting rifles and hunting but this summer I bought my first pistol which turned into first 2 pistols then a third later. .22 and .45 first then later a 9mm, then I bought a 7.62x54R surplus rifle then last week I picked up a New 30-06 for hunting. Pretty much the time and money I used to put into my truck got put into firearms this summer. I am starting to level out a little though.

I'd like to get a .40 or a 9mm someday. Buying that many guns in such a short time, I'm suprised the FBI hasn't kicked your door in. LOL.

The FBI hasn't kicked my door in but my wife is about ready to kick my doors in! Good thing she is about 3 weeks from giving birth to my first son other wise I would be dead! I did teach her how to shoot so she might just use that against me some day soon.

Travis unfortunately I as selling all my parts for my big oil project. I gotta pay for the 30-06 without selling any other guns. I decided that with all the good medium/big oil options out there now I didn't need to build my own. Besides if I ever get aroudn to injectors they will be hybrids anyway.

Thanks for the welcome back guys. I will be around more but it will be spotty. I am running the shop this week so I am in front of a the computer most of the day so I sneak away every now and then.

You have an electric system glenn!

As you rpm the motor, the flux of the gauge will get narrower to the
point of it being steady. A good pump will pin a 100 psi gauge.

You have to go try a cowboy shoot. Its good fun!
