Re: Chevy 350 Jerks/Sputters PLZ HELP!

Well I am not quite sure how to check what the fuel pressure is when this happens... its random kinda... and only when its in a kickdown situation and under some decent acceleration... If i give it the foot it just shift straight through no problem. And when everything warms up it doesnt seem to do it anymore...

However i did notice today that when i started the engine after about a 15 min drive. I started it to check the tranny fluid again. ( just in case ) and the fuel pressure gauge i put inline between the pump and the carb is basically at "0" with the needle twitching just a lil... the gauge is fluid filled... idk if that has anyhting to do with it.... When i put it in it seemed to work ok.... But is the engine is running normal... should it read the 5-7 psi that it has read in the past.... i dont understand... could this be the problem?....

Just so you know. This problem with the jerking was going on before i installed the new pump to carb hard line and filter and fuel pressure gauge.... but could the gauge be telling me what is wrong?
