I finally got the fuel pressure test. I ended up having to buy 2 feet of rubber fuel pressure hose because that adapter I need isn't at any auto store or kit unfortunately. $84.99 to order online from a specialty store.
Results: I turn the key over a few times to build pressure but not starting it. It does go to 50psi and slowly decrease. However, when I start it it'll build pressure to 50psi and stay their. Eveb when I press on the gas while parked/idling the psi stays constantly at 50psi. Even when I shift into every other gear it stays at 50psi and doesn't move at all. And shouldn't it drop 5psi once I shift into reverse and press on the accelerator? Oh and when I turn car off and remove key the psi slowly decreases.
Furthermore, I attached pictures marked with 2 red arrows of a possible fuel leak. The fuel pressure line( Not sure what that piece is but I know it the fuel line) you see is wet and it runs directly into the right end of the fuel injector rail and above it you can see more signs of a wet surface also marked with red arrow.
Lastly, I have one off subject question. I noticed a wire of some type I marked with a red arrow in the 3rd last picture( Seems hollow honestly) bent pretty bad and was wondering if that would cause any issues or future issues? Not sure what it even does.
Thanks guys for all your help so far. Much appreciated!
Oh and I rented a compression tester you put into the holding of the spark plug. A friend suggested testing it so I just went ahead and grab the loaner from o Reilly's. So I'll let you know results of that. If could supply any instructions on how to do the test etc for my car that would be awesome!
