Fuel pressure high on new unit.

Hey guys,

New to FiTech and to the forum. I have a new build going together, and I decided to leak check the fuel system by manually powering up the fuel pump. Good news is no leaks. However, I noticed the gauge maxing out at 100psi after the system "filled".

I tried it a couple more times (3 second hits), and same result. I thought maybe its a return line problem, but I cracked the return line at the throttle body, and there was no fuel and the pressure was still about 60.

From what I read, the pressure should be right around 60 with the key on - engine off.

Should I replace the regulator or is there something else up with my unit?

I have both fuel lines on the passenger side, inlet and gauge in front return in rear (as stamped on unit).

 

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

 

Pull regulator. Check for obstruction.
