Ok,

Gauge reads 4.5 to 5 pounds fuel pressure. Didn't have sufficient fittings to run the gauge in line so tested at the end before the carb. Not sure if 1-2 lbs over pressure is enough to get past the needle valve?

Also sprayed some carb cleaner into the fuel inlet, though it may free up the valve. It had no effect.

Looks like I need a new pump or regulator. Will probably just replace the pump as it looks pretty iffy to start.

I should probably just rebuild the carbs to know everything is fine. we will see when the new pump is on.
