Fuel pressure should read no less then 9 LBS. and no more then 13 LBS. And yes it should hold the pressure with key on, engine off.
The easiest and most accurate way to check the fuel pressure, on your 2001 Chrysler Town and Country is to use a diagnostic tester. The diagnostic tester will tell you the exact fuel pressure at various RPMs.
Need to know which pressure you refer to, fuel, radiator cap, tires, evap, ac, cylinder compression, transmission?
Assuming this is a 4.3L engine, cycle the key off and on several times until the pressure peaks. The fuel pressure gauge should read 60 to 66 psi if all is well.
key on 34-39 at idle 24-36
9 to 13 LBS. No lower are no higher are you will have starting or running problems.
Key on engine off, Should read 60 to 66 PSI. No lower are higher are you will have problems.
If you look at it you will see a vacuum line hooked to it, while the engine is running unplug it and the engine sound should change. If it don't then the regulator is bad. You can also hook up a fuel pressure gauge to the fuel line and read what the pressure is while engine is idleing and then unplug the regulator and the fuel pressure should go up a few LBS. If not replace regulator.
You may have fuel pressure but not enough. Have the fuel pressure tested with a gauge, it should read between 60 to 66 psi for the injectors to work. Also check the fuses to be sure none are blown.
Most fuel pumps should read about 9 volts, but I think I remember some reading about 5 volts. Why do you need to the voltage at the pump?
i dont know either, i have the smae problem if you find out, let me know That also happened on my 1987 Celebrity, it turned out to be bad fuel injectors. Check resistance of the individual injectors. It should be a minimum of 7.4 ohms. It could also be a bad fuel pump or fuel filter To check fuel pressure: Attach a fuel pump pressure gauge at the schraeder valve (on top of fuel rail). Pressure should read 40 to 45 psi.
Fuel pressure for a 1997 Chevy S10 with a 4.3L engine requires 60 to 66 psi.
