I recently noticed abnormally high fuel pressure on a 30 minute flight over the Sierras and am puzzled. Fuel pressure on climb from 1500 ft msl to 10,500 and down to 4,500 was about at the redline. Took off with full tanks so this flight was on the left tank. Two days later came back the same route on the right tank and fuel pressure was normal, 14.5 psi. This is an early Bonanza with a pressure carb. Blew back on the left tank overflow/vent line upon arrival home and found no restriction. ???

I catch myself on that occasionally. Steve
