I Need Help Fast
 
Ok heres the problem
I pulled into the garage and decided to pop the hood and check the fuel press. well it was bouncing around alot then it dropped to 1 psi.
I turned off the car and kept the pump running and it was still at 1 psi.
its not leaking anywheres and the pump is running its just not pumping anything. Whats the deal. The pump is only like 7 mths old. I was hoping to get my car out to the track tommorow but if i dont have fuel pressure its not gonna happen.
what could it be
Please help ASAP

It could be the gauge. If the pressure dropped to 1 psi, the engine would have stalled on it's own.

Take care,

I didnt think nechanical gauges really failed that often and its only about 1.5 yrs old

Could be the sending unit. No EFI or carbed car will run on 1psi of fuel pressure.

its a mechanical gauge right on the regulator but. i think im going to try and see if i can find a new gauge or even just something to test it because while the car will run for a little bit without the fuel pump i know the pump has done it before and ive made it home without incident.
