Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
So I bought my truck in feb and been driving it since . I finally got my fuel pressure guage on last week . Well it reads 7psi at idel , and if I floor it I drop to 0 (probably below) no problem . I have been driving real easy with her till I installed the guage , not knowing and all .
I thought maybe a plugged filter was the reason , so I changed it today , no change . I have an Issopro guage with a pretty big fuel line right of the schrader valve directly to the guage in an A pillar .
Any chance I have air in the line or a bad reading somehow?What do I do now , just take it to a dealership? I've never owned a vechicle this new , lol .
And what if they try telling me its a good pressure ? (like my old man who insists its ok because he was a diesel mechanic for 30 yrs (10yrs ago)) . I thought I've read posts in my search that people were told its ok .
Espically since I called the dodge dealer right when I bought the truck and asked them about the vp-44 and warranty , AND if I could get the lift pump checked out right away , and they guy told me "O if anything was wrong it would raise a check engine light" . I asked if anyone there knew anythong about diesel cummins and he says "O yea I have a few mechanics real familiar with those engines" . I say BS , diesels are far and few between around here , and I just din't buy anything he said . I could tell he was trying to say alot with knowing very little . I don't want some flop touching my truck .
Whats my next step guys?
