worked on this thing non stop today till 10 tonight. KO'd a bunch of little things and I removed the extra hot wire kit and cleaned the FPR. I rubbed some DOT 3 brake fluid into the diaphragm and let it sit to soften it up a little more while I did the other stuff. There was a black rubber 0-ring virtually missing from the fuel line that connects to the bottom of the FPR so I replaced that with the proper red one, also replaced a few vacuum lines and zip tied the ones running to the FPR. My fuel pressure reading has really levelled out. Before it would fluctuate at idle by a few PSI and now it is only a few tenths. as you can see below I am still getting some KR around 10# boost but my FP increase is steady 1:1 with boost. I do not have smoothing turned on and you can still see the random spikes...they are popping up while cruising as well which makes me think it is a ground issue as mentioned by jerryl.

. still more to do though...I added 4 new things to my buick fix list, seems I open up a can of worms every time I work on this thing. Also thinking about changing her name from Shameka to The Black Lemon.
