Re: 1988 trans am problems
Sounds like the FP is too high, what is it ? Shouldn't be over about 6-7 psi max.

Re: 1988 trans am problems
after discussing my problem with edelbrock techs, it appears that my fp exceeds the handling fuel psi of my fuel pressure regulators. looks like i will be pulling the fp and installing an external (aeromotive or holley) fp.
