hey everyone , new to the site and looking forward to gaining some kowledge of the vehicles you are driving and hopefully look forward to maybe seeing some of you at a local meet . my 1995 mitsubishi eclipse gs is running a bit rich , well its running at 43-45 lbs of fuel pressure and it should only be runnning at 38 , what are some things you think i should look for , basically my car will rev up to about 2000 rpm then it will slowly die back down to about 900 rpm (base idle is 840-880) I have heard to try and make sure that the tube for the excess fuel is going back to the tank but have not had time to do a pinch test on it . and also some sensors may be doing this but if that was the case dont you think it would bring up a code ?
