Normal Fuel Pressure On 02' CTD With Stock Fuel System?
 
I was wondering what should normal fuel pressure be running at on stock fuel system for 02' CTD. I was monitoring it at the test port on VP-44. I still am running original fuel lift pump & original VP-44.

I'm not sure how this compares to others but I'm only running at about 12-14 psi at idle. When driving normally it seems to always stay above 10-12. If I get on the gas pretty hard sometimes it drops as low as 6 or so but pops back up to 12 when you get off the gas. Is this pretty normal?..........

Thanks for any info you guys can give.

Yep, I run about 14-15 at idle, 11 or so running 70mph on the highway, pulls down to 7 if I just stand on it.

mine idles at 14-15 also goes down to as low as 6 when on it prety much like the post above. i have a stock fuel system trying to run an Adrenaline \\gonna upgrade as soon as i get an extra 500 or so dollars because it seems my Adrenaline isn't making the power it should

I have a stock pump relocated with a big line kit from Vulcan. I get 14 - 15 @ idle, and around 10 - 11 WOT.
