    6.9 low power/no power.... need help

    Kdo58… the lift pump is new. I know that doesn’t mean good, but with the old pump I had 2.2- 3.6 psi at idle. Now I have 4.5–5.5 psi… and it doesn’t die when the psi goes to 0, but this is at 2200-2300 rpm. 3/4 throttle and up hill… psi returns fast when I let off
