Fuel pressure dropping while driving and under acceleration to zero at idle runs 4 lb electric Blue

Anyone have thoughts or ideas? Should I take this fuel lab regulator part just to be sure or just get another pump? It can't be this hard lol

Dead head the pump and see what it makes for pressure. The pump may be junk. I will say I’m not a fan of regulators that send the fuel in the side and return it out of the bottom.

But I’m not throwing the regulator under the bus yet.
