502 mpi coil fuel pressure issue
Hi
I messure my fuel pressure one week ago and the pressure whas 55 psi at idle. I disconnect the vacum hose from the regulator and nothing happend. The pressure did not change if I rev up the engine. Still 55 psi. I then ordered a new original regulator from a local store and mount it today. I messured the pressure at idle to 35 psi. I disconect the vacum hose and the pressure jumped up to 43 psi. The pressure did not change if I rev up the engine to about 3000 rpm with the vacum hose connected. Stable at 35 psi. Does anyone have a solution to my problem. I thought the pressure should be 43 psi with the vacum hose connected.
From What I have read before, this engine should have 43 psi at idle. Is that correct?
Hope you guys can help me 😀

The fuel psi will most definitely reduce when you hook to vacuum which there is a lot of at idle.
