somewhat theres a guage on the regulator and it reads over 40lbs but who knows i think the next thing will be taking it off and seeing how it runs.

Sometimes the caps in the ECU will leak causing all sorts of trouble. Just throwing things out since we are all guessing.

Check engine codes are a real good place to start.
