the reason i'm pissed is because you're trying to call me liar when i KNOW what i had and i know what it tested like, and it was in spec, but it was still bad. you're all the way down there in surfer land cracking coconuts with torque wrenches, i don't believe you can tell what my tps read from 3000 miles away. and just to clear up any confusion you may have had about my post when i was talking about 6k, i was talking about 6000 rpm.

Hurm....
Hurm....
After 3 or 4 tries at tightening it, then the engine cooling down and trying again, I finally replaced the questionable clamp and the problem went away.
If you haven't replaced your hose clamps recently you might want to take a closer look at them.

Ok hurm.
I finally got around to checkin on this today. I replaced the fuel filter, only managed to down about a gallong of fuel while doing so
. Got that all switched and primed. Took it for a test after it warmed up and BOOM its still there.
Soo I pulled the pressure sensor, car barly ran when I steped on it, but I managed to get it to 6k, and it wouldnt go any further.
10psi is damn fun, but what the hell is the wall comming from?
