Called Aeromotive and he told me my system is doing what it`s supposed to be doing w/my basic non running test. When I set the reg. for 8lbs and the pump shows the same, it`s doing it`s job and the bypass is working and so is the reg. He suggest I get rid of the Earls screen filter for now and run it and if it`s still jacked the pump has been compramised(fubared)and to send it in. Aeromotive pumps do NOT want a flat screen type filter before em PERIOD.......His words.
