my question is what type of fuel pressure gauge are you using?i have a liquid filled in the engine bay on the capri and as the car warms up the gauges pressure drops... I was told the liquid gets thinner making fuel pressure looks like it drops a bit

FYI sometimes when the tank is really low and you try to pump gas the nozzle will click telling you it is full when it is not. Have had this happen on my stang when i first bought it... ended up running out of gas in the driveway...

No one said anything about it screaming. You said "If you can hear an intank fuel pump in the drivers seat it's most likely bad" that sir is a false statement, but what do I know?
