I picked up a cheap (non liquid filled) fuel pressure gauge from the local auto parts store. I'll let the engine idle for as long as it took the Autometer gauge (liquid filled) to fail and compare the two.

I'm pretty sure this $190 exercise in futility will come down to the liquid filled gauge failing, as you guys enlightened me about.

Everyday I have to troubleshoot in my job (manager of technical support team) so I'm used to this.
