If I had a plugged/partly plugged injector, would my fuel pressure "twitch"?

I know the gauge should casually go up/down depending upon the load/rpm of the motor.

Needles aren't always rock steady on an analog gauge.

And no, clogs would actually register a higher pressure I would think.

Define twitch?

If your fuel pressure is dipping because of a fuel injector, you would have fuel pump problems. Probably twitching cause of the guage.

I havent put the gauge on it yet. Was "thinking" maybe it would help diag the problem.

Twitch=wiggling really fast like a vac leak on a vac gauge.
