Sounds like your running way to rich. What kind of fuel pressure are your running, and what are you using to increase it with...?

Just get a B&M Fuel Pressure Set... That way you would be able have permanent pressure gauge, even tho it's under the hood. Probably save you few bucks, as compared to a testing one. hehehe

I just went ahead got a B&M CommandFlo, for a fuel presssure regulator. Never have heard to much about an AEM one tho...

Do you have a check engine light on? Do you still have an 02sensor.
