1994 trans am fuel problem

[mysticgreenz]

i have a 1994 trans am with 112k

it has 30lbs of fuel pressure at idle. seems low to me. if i give it quarter throttle it pulls strong, if i give it full throttle it falls on its face and stays at like 5,000 rpm. idk what wrong....
is my fuel pump weak?
is my fuel presure regulator bad?
i know nothing about lt1's

any help is greatly appreciated
thanks

Should be closer to 40 psi with the vacuum hose off the regulator IIRC. I would say your probably losing a fuel pump. Eric L

thats what im figuring i just want to make sure to prevent going on a wild goose chase

my pressure is about 38 at idle and 44 at wot. thats what my autometer gauge reads at the schrader valve.

change the filter
unplug the reg to see if the pressure rises

update

i have 32lbs of fuel pressure at idle. and while running when i remove the vacuum on the fuel pressure regulator it barely nudges, raises about 1 lb. is it the regulator or the fuel pump? im guessing fuel pump

please help i need this thing running right again

thanks

change the filter
unplug the reg to see if the pressure rises

what he said, and if still no help its prob your pump

brand new filter, and it raises 1 lb when i undo the vacuum line

Sounds like your fuel pump is gone or is working on it

Fuel pump.

k thanks everyone for the help. i hope its the fuel pump. it barely drives, runs like shit, anything above quarter throttle and it goes slower cause runs out of fuel
