I have been working on Diesels sense the mid 70's so I am not a rookie.It just blows my mind the trouble shooting time thinking it was other issues.I now have the 17psi idle back and 10 psi WOT. I always put a fuel pressure gauge on the pumps or on the outlet but not this one.It will get one!My 200 FASS had a taped port on the last one I installed but do not notise if this one has one?
Thanks for the update.....I know i have been guilty of assumptions in the past that have bitten me in the rear....I would have thought the same thing with a new filter. BUT a better suggestion from me might have been check prefilter pressure. Im going to file that one away for the next time. Glad we are up and running!
