Ok - Topdog here: I have a solution for my own problem and it may help others. I had a problem with too much fuel pressure. I put a manual gauge on it and found the pressure going up to 80 lbs. I spent time checking the wiring diagrams and running test. I finally found a voltage problem at the fuel pressure sensor. I the reference wire shorted to the signal voltage. This was caused by a shorted power steering switch. ( A shorted power steering switch caused the fuel pressure sensor to to run the fuel pressure too high.) If you are having a problem with fuel pressure unplug the power steering switch and see what happens! My Idea, Hope it helps..
