You named it - Fuel pressure. Test that with KOEO and while running.

Internal leak? Care to elaborate? I thought the intake was still aluminum in 2002.

I have a '96 2.2 SFI, and it was still aluminum then. I wasn't sure when they switched.

You must have a two piece manifold,As for mine yes the plastic one and it's warped causing a internal leak.
