Default fuel pressure

what is the normal fuel pressure rating on a 2v?

im trying to investigate why my car is hesitant at random times. i cleaned the air filter a week ago and i made sure that the wire in the MAF was clean. i also checked for any vaccum leaks and made sure that the connections were tight. so this leads me to my fuel pump. a buddy from home and i are going to hook up his fuel pressure gauge for a week and see whats going on. were gonna put it on the steering column. its gonna be sweet for a week. lol

The fuel pressure should be between 39-44 psi.
No codes ? Usually if you are having low fuel pressure there is a sensor on the fuel rail that'll pick that up.
