Fuel pressure should be about 36 - 40 psi static (eng not running). It will vary with manifold pressure (or should) when running. 32 is about normal at idle. First thing to do when mix is way off at idle is to adjust Mode 2. If way off at high throttle, adjust Mode 3. See instructions. Unless it is obviously wrong, you should not correct mixture problems with fuel pressure as a first step. That may move the problem to a different throttle setting.

Fuel pressure should be about 36 - 40 psi static (eng not running).  It will vary with manifold pressure (or should)  when running.  32 is about normal at idle.

My Advanced Flight System EFIS\ engine monitor fuel injector circuit is not putting out a tach signal so no idea on the actual rpm's. Two primer clicks and it starts right up.
