So what does the fuel pressure drop too?It sounds like you could have a bad fuel pressure regulator which is located in the fuel filter.If you have never changed the fuel filter you should change it they get changed every 100,000 miles and by that time there pretty clogged up.I have seen bad fuel pressure regulators cause erratic fuel pressure on those cars like that.
