Has anyone else noticed fuel pressures dropping to minimum during the cruise and then rising again on the 320 ? I seem to remeber some postes about this several months backl. Mine has been checked for leaks etc. and nothing seems to be wrong, however in flight I often observe very low fuel pressures (bottom end of green arc-I think 0.2 bar from memory).
Gerard,
 
.2 bar = 2.9 psi, if you are carbureted.  Perhaps someone will comment. 
 
320/360 injected engines like to see 24-28 psi (about 1.7 bar) with a warning if the pressure drops to 12 psi (.83 bar).
