    Issues with FRP Spike

    I have been having issues with my Fuel Rail Pressure dropping to 0 and back to desired. it does not always drop to 0 but it falls off, and i get a fuel knock. I have been running the same tune for almost 8 months now and problem just started 3 months ago. Here are some logs to see if anyone can help. I do not think its tune related but as tuners here i might get some insight on my issues.

    I have upgraded my CP3 from stock to fleece power flow 750, changed fuel filters, changed fuel rail pressure sensor and went back to a stock tune. Still nothing not sure what else to check. I am running a Fass 220 and 100 hp injectors.

    Any help would be very nice i am loosing it with this issue its driving me nuts.

    check the duty cycle of the fca, possible the fca is not working right.

    Can you change to a good know pressure relief valve? Sounds like it's opening, releasing pressure and reseating.

    Put a pressure gauge on the fuel filter side. If you see it spike, you are having a rail pop off issue.

    Looking at your cruise control log, the pressure is extremely erratic and is overshooting then missing under.

    You most certainly cant run a stock tune with an upgraded pump. The duty cycle and FCA response are incorrect.

    I've seen this with DMAX guys putting a LBZ pump on a LB7 truck. The FCA response is incorrect and creates the pressure surge.

    Also the upgraded pump came after the issues i started having them before i thought my cp3 was failing so i upgraded. everything that was mentioned i have done since the problem started.
