Re: [Chrysler300] (Chrysler 300) 300H Fuel problem

Doug,
If you really wanted to know, you could mount a pressure guage in the fuel 
line and check the pressure. Find a spot to insert a "t" fitting between 
the fuel pump and the carbs, or between the carbs and run a small line to 
a mechanical pressure guage . you can sneak the line out under the rear 
edge of the hood leaving the guage on the cowl, in front of the windshield, 
visible thru the glass (hold it there with duct tape or zip tie it to a 
wiper blade. Then you can run the car at speed and check the fuel delivery. 
I used to have a nice big 0-30 lb pressure guage mounted right in front of 
the windshield of my bracket racer, it sure was a dandy tool for keeping 
things sorted out.
Mike
