My recently acquired 914 seems to lose fuel pressure after running for a while. Here is what I know for sure. I have pulled out the screen in the tank and have installed a carter fuel pump and all new lines including through the tunnel and under the tank. The car is a 76 with 44IDF carbs and a holley fuel pressure regulator with a guage installed after the regulator. When cold the fuel pressure pumps right up to 3-3 1/2 psi. Letting the car run in the garage for 20-30 minutes the pressure guage drops to 0. I have installed 2 different pump and the problem persists. Any ideas.
