well, a very healthy engine will have better vacuum then a 200k mile engine, or simply one that's been beat to hell it's whole life... which is why toyota gives a range of specified fuel pressures, rather then just one number. it'll vary over time. what does your car pull in vacuum? mine pulls...
yes. if you've ever looked inside of the stock elbow, you'll see how ridiculously restrictive it is! especially compared to, oh, say, a BIC dp. :)

thats what i did during my rebuild. i was already used to blipping the throttle on my previous vehicle ('71 chevy c-10 that liked to stall) so i do it habitually in parking lots anyway. i removed the hardline, capped off the valve for good measure, and capped off the nipple on the accordian...

base fuel pressure should be 40psi with the vacuum line detached and pinched or plugged. the base fuel pressure setting should come from the atmosphere. when you put the vacuum line back on, it should drop to around 32psi or so... (it varies depending on how healthy your engine is. :))

unless your car was swapped, tranny swapped, etc... then:
N/A manual tranny= w58
Turbo Tranny= r154
auto tranny is something like the A304e or something like that, i dont know because i dont drive an auto. :)
