What might cause my fuel pressure to slowly drop from 6psi to 3psi as the engine warms up at idle? Could a small leak (not even a drip, but a wet fitting) after the regulator cause this or is it more likely a clogged fuel filter. I have a cannister before the fuel pump and an in-line just before the carb.

the same thing happened to me but my pressure went even lower. Ended up changing my fuel pump. The orig. pump was mechanical. Now electric no problems.... Stu

Thanks for the reply Stu but unfortunatley I just put this pump in and it is electric - a Holley Blue. This happened during the first start-up to test.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
