Pete,
That is why there is a green arc on any gauge. If your pressures are
within the green, I would not worry about it. My Bonanza fuel pressure
changes with altitude and temperature. Not by much but it does vary. Are
you still using the factory gauge? Mine went west a few years ago.
Replaced it with a combination manifold pressure, fuel pressure gauge.
Small changes show up as big needle displacements.
