Intermittenly my truck will bog down while accelerating
So I found the problem today, I gave up looking for a fuel pressure guage and took my plenum off, I didnt wan't to have to find a torque wrench to torque it back down but what the hell, I will find one. My spider is leaking on the regulator side but I don't think it's my regulator that is leaking, I replaced it 2 years ago. I think it might be leaking where the lines connect to the spider so now I have to decide if I will just drop $200 for a rebuilt one or maybe someone on here has one I could get some parts off of. Atleast I now know what is wrong. Honestly the spider injector seems to be more trouble then it's worth, I would almost rather have a TB injector.
I really think I'm just gonna get this http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...2521&ppt=C0024 and a new connector so I don't have to deal with it in another 2 years!
Here is a question, can the gasket around the spider that seperates eash side of the plenum cause fuel to leak?

Take out and drain the fuel tank, preferably into a white plastic bucket so you can see how much crap's in your gas. Pulled about a cup of dirt out of my '89 that was having this same problem, now it runs like a champ again (as usual)
