I just cleaned out my tank and replaced the filter because my filter was all clogged up from foam bits and crud floating in my fuel cell. I start the car up and suddenly it has 8 psi fuel pressure. So I turn the regulator out and bring the pressure back to 6.5 psi. The gauge is very responsive to adjustments. After driving the car for a while with the engine temperature getting hot, I check the fuel pressure and the guage is only reading 3 psi. So I turn the pressure regulator in all the way and the pressure still only reads 4. The guage is also not very responsive to the adjustments. It seems when the car gets hot the fuel pressure drops and is erratic at times. What could be happening?
The car has a fuel cell with 8 AN line, fuel filter, 1/2 aluminum line to the Holley mechanical fuel pump, some type of regulator with a Auto Meter guage, and 1/2 line all the way to the carb.
