Re: fuel pressure Sign In

If this engine should be this..............
  • FUEL DELIVERY
  • VEHICLE SPECIFICATIONS RESULTS
FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE 1994 Mazda Protege 1.8L MFI SOHC 4cyl The Fuel System Pressure

64-92 PSI (Pounds per Square Inch)Start the engine and then proceed to disconnect theelectric fuel pump connector. Allow the engine to idleuntil it runs out of fuel and stalls. Turn off theignition switch, disconnect the negative battery cableand attach a fuel pressure gauge to the fuel pump,then plug the other end of the fuel hose.Reconnect the negative battery cable, then attach anan electrical jumper wire between the fuel pump andnegative pin terminals of the data link connector.Verify that no leaks are present, and with theignition key in the on position, energize the fuelpump and bring the system to a stabilized fuelpressure. Visually verify the PSI reading on thegauge.

That makes a lot more sense than what data I found which was just maxing out the thing I think by force??
