JBattag121 Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 Please help, I’ve installed a 150psi 3 wire fuel pressure sensor and it will not read correctly. When the engine is first started, it appears to work fine but within a few seconds the displayed numbers will rapidly move up and down. I can’t read what it is. I’ve checked for a short in the harness and all looks good. Thanks, Jim 7BFB6BA5-C957-4E97-976E-D7690B1B6CE0.MOV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cj Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 If you watch that frame by frame the value is jumping between about 48 and mid 50's. These seem like reasonable numbers but depending on your fuel system design and regulator you may disagree. You're looking at absolute pressure, so if you have the vacuum line hooked up to the regulator you should except to see a few psi fluctuation due to pressure variances through the intake. If you look at the logging screen with the graphs instead of the instant values it will be a lot easier to see trends, history and general "how much it moves about" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBattag121 Posted October 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 Good eye, I didn’t think of that. My tuner thinks that it should read steadily. But I’m wondering if maybe it will never, because it’s a deadhead system. That’s the approximate to fuel range it should read it idle. I’m going to copy your message and forward to him and see what he thinks. Thank you, Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
