Certainly fits the issue.   How to check?  Run it hard with the FP gage in 
place and see if the behavior is odd under boost when warm?

Not thrilled with the idea of all that additional fuel line in there on the 
road but don't know what else to do, really....

Pump slowing up after it’s been running awhile?

Subject: 94 FMII Cutting out at high boost/rpm





 

 
Greets!  My 94 FMII car (installed circa 2000, RC550's, 12psi, BBBT,
original fuel pump) is cutting out under high boost/high rpm conditions. 
I sent a datalog to FM and Jeremy replied,



"Your ATS & CTS look fine. You've got plenty of injector
on-time. So, if you're leaning out I'd have a look at your fuel pressure to see
if your pump is bad or filter is clogged. Should be running around 35 psi at
idle & around 45 psi if you pop the vacuum hose off the regulator. In boost
it raises pressure 1:1. " 




I finally checked the pressure today and got 35 idle/44-ish with the vac source
removed.  Max pressure (checked with the fuel line output blocked) was
~77psi.



I did notice that the behavior doesn't start immediately, but rather appears
once the car is good and warmed up.



What's the next step?  I probably am due for a filter, but it seems
somewhat unlikely that I'd get good numbers in the garage with a clogged
filter, no?



All input welcome- thanks in advance!
