Whats your vacuum at idle? If it's not at 14-16ish I'd also look into that being an issue...timing is set correctly?

Your fuel gauge is also before rail, or on the remote FPR right? You could even splice one in line to double verify.


But again thats what I would verify...one that hte cars timing is adjusted properly (also consider a bad tune/faulty tune/tuned for a specific timing and you're not there), and then to see if you have fuel pressure.
Vacuum is fixed, it's at 20 and responds to throttle well.
The only problem is that the gauges show's 5 psi of fuel.
So I wanna mess with that, I will update if I am able to get it to 35-37 PSI.

Timing was never touched, like I said, this car has 135,000 miles and the engine runs PERFECT.
the only things that changed were the oil lines, injectors, fuel pump, and the vacuum is back to normal, so I got the vacuum problem figured out.
