clogged fuel lines maybe

28PSI sounds low to me.. Could have overheated the FP?

i took the fuel feed line off and it is getting good fuel pumping out.

clogged filter, overheated pump, junk in the lines

Wild guess/idea. You ran out of gas ..or... the crud that collects on the bottom of your tank was sucked up since the gas was so low. Clogging fuel lines. Makes sense imo. may not be the case but its my 0.02$

would taking off my fuel feed line to my rails and blowing air from my compressor in rail tear up injectors of fuel pressure regulator?

would i clean out the crud?
would i still be getting likt 40 sum on fuel pressure if the pump got damage or hot?
