So here's another result I had from the last Maxton event I thought I would share with everyone. It seems I may have to look for a new fuel pump. I've been running the same pump for many years now. This might be a good time to try a bosch 044 to see how well it runs in my fuel system.
The first graph is a graph I always plot for fuel pressure and oil just to see at a glance if there are any major issues going on with fluid pickup. If during accelaration there's a drop in either it could indicate that the pickup is not completely submerged/covered.
In the second graph I look at the pressure and include the throttle position. This tells me how hard the fuel system is working. You can see that once I go to full throttle there's a drop in pressure.
I also check fuel pressure vs voltage to see if a drop in pressure may be caused by a drop in voltage to the pumps. That one checks out fine with the new electrical system.
Before things get worse with this pump I'll swap in a different one to see if this goes away.
