I am not having any problem now (after replacing intake manifold seals, injector seals, one injector, the MAP, and everything that looks like rubber tubing attached to the motor!! I am just trying to get this thing into tip top shape. The pressure variation just strike me as excessive, but I have no information to judge from.
Thanks, Hal

The 36 is surprising - maybe the pressure control valve sticks until it gets hot?
Regarding the variation - I need to get my gauge hooked up to see what is happening under way. Most people wouldn't know it varies - maybe it is normal
With my pressure at 30 psig or more, I am probably running rich and need to adjust the MPS to bring the CO back to 2% - But, I am having no luck finding a reasonably priced meter.
