yes.
49.2PSI + or - 5PSI
Get a 0-60 PSI gauge. I don't know where you could get it besides an
autoparts store.
In the manual it says get the appropriate Fuel Line Pressure Test
Adapter Tool
(6539, 6631, 6541 or 6923) and gauge (from set 5069)
Note I have no idea if you can use a regular gauge or what the FLPTAT is
and if you can improvise.
This info was taken out of the '98 Service Manual

Anyone know what the fuel pressure on the 98 5.2's should be?
And where is the best place to buy a gauge to measure it???
