I've got a problem I think I have had for awhile. I installed my boost guage a couple of weeks ago, but first I used it for a fuel pressure reading. I had 18 at idle,24at 2000 in neutral. I then moved it to the manifold. I had an average of 10psi max when I ran through the gears normally. I could open it up through the gears and get a max 26psi. talked to people at TST and decided Iwasn't getting enough fuel to create much boost. I did a running fuel pressure test, at 55 it would run 26-28. It would then drop to 20 without any changes and back upto 26. the engine sounded the same when it dropped. I coul never get fuel pressure to 30. I put a new lift pump on thinking it might also cure my low rpm shake. Now I have 22 at idle and28 or so at 1800 and it does not flucuate but Isolved nothing
NowI don't have hardly any boost under normal acceleration andthe most I will see is 15psi at best . I have smoke only when I open it up at low rpm. truck seems to run normal but it never had the power I thought it should have. Help me please. The more I spend the worse it gets.
