I am not getting very much fuel right now. I am concerned because, I get 6 psi right off the bat when I turn the car on and it runs fine. But once I run it and I come home after it gets warm the fuel pressure drops to like 2-4 at idle. Shouldn't it stay right at 6psi at idle all the time? And I am still working with my timing. I don't have much time because I am playing high school soccer and have games all this week. So I'll let everyone know how it is probably by this weekend. THanx for everyone that helped me. Racerx especially.

I put in a bran new stock fuel filter when I put in the fuel pump.. Could the fuel filter be too small for the upgraded pump. Because after I bought the filter and put everything in it told me the exact filter to buy. Its a fram G-12 and I have the stock one on the car right now. Should I upgrade to the fram? could that be the problem?

My pump is a carter i think the 6-8 psi. And I am running 5/16" fuel lines in and out of it, I might need to go to 3/8th inch or re wire the pump, it might not be getting enough power. I will work it out here tonite.
