With a fuel pressure gauge installed, the pressure reads about 25 PSI for 2 seconds then drops to zero, ignition on, without starting . I expected the pressure to last only 2 seconds as described in the factory service manual but the pressure is well below 41-47 PSI and it is my understanding it should hold up for some time. I've replaced the fuel pump and the pressure remains low. Following the troubleshooting steps I need a specialty tool, J 37287, to insert in the fuel line. I can't find it anywhere. The engine runs rough and the exhaust smells "funny" with a slight bit of white-ish smoke.
I've come to a crossroads. I really don't want to let someone else work on her but I need her back. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
