cvc, with those readings there should be nothing wrong with your pump or regulator for running conditions. If you are having a hard start condition, then we will need to know what the fuel pressure drops to after the pump cycles off. This is refered to as a bleed-down test.

What is your reason for checking the pressure? Whats your complaint?
