Anyone know what the regular pressure is supposed to be? So there is a check valve in the fuel pump? I was thinking that since the pressure regulator is also the fuel filter, and thats where the excess fuel goes, back thru the fuel filter, that that may be the problem. I just replaced about 1 month ago. Thats when I started having problems, about 3 days after i changed it. Any thoughts on that. I hate to change the pump if thats not the problem,

The check valve is in the fuel pump. The regulator is in the filter and the pressure is regulated to 54-61psi.
It's all in the shop repair manual.
