Sorry I wasn't more clear - this has the schrader valve on the fuel rail and during the no start period if I put a tire pressure gauge on there I get a puff of fuel/air so it seems pressurized. There is no fuel at the vacuum line on the FPReg. When I had a functioning pressure gauge that I attached to this valve it showed about 36 psi, with about 45 psi when I removed the vacuum hose on the FPReg. Then the leakdown rate was very good - 30 minutes after shutdown still had 20 or 30 psi. But being cheap HF material I buggered up the threads putting on so many times and now don't have it during these no start periods.
